My Big o' Cosmos finally arrived from Dallas after traveling for over 48 hours with no updates. It's still 10.7 lbs, but now I have real dimensions 24.3 x 13.3 x 12.7. So excited for Wednesday when it arrives!

My Big o' Cosmos weight jumped from 4.3 to 5.1. I'm glad they captured that screaming monkey that tried to escape.

I'm sorry about your mom, I know the anticipation of sharing this as I'll be skyping my son when I get my bag. Good luck

Not too bad, but I wouldn't wear them.



Funny...just saw a listing on Craig's list for three CROW watches. Red, white and Aqua...coincidence?

Was anxiously awaiting Thursday's delivery of my 5.3lb Box of Cheerios, but the excitement has diminished after reading about the breast pumps, calendars, aqua globes, ear warmers and screaming monkeys that have been received so far. Hoping and hoping that Woot saved the best crap for the next round of deliveries..was hoping for electronic goodies and not actual crap. Reading the positive comments about the above received items reminds me of the Christmas scene from "About a Boy" when Hugh Grant thought: "I had to hand it to the kid. He could be enthusiastic about some truly crap present."

So very sorry for your loss. You will be her walking legacy and others will know about her through you. I hope you are as blessed in the coming week like I was when my dad died suddenly. May your family rally together and your friends lift you all up in support.

We all bought crap. I'd guess most of us are expecting crap, but there is that glimmer of hope of something special(perhaps a letter?) being slipped into each and everyone of our packages.

It's only eight bucks. The entertainment value of this forum is definitely worth the price of admission. But maybe it would be best for you, with your next Big Orphaned Cetacea (if you are lucky enough to get one), that you stop reading the forum when the crap ships.

Surprises are fun too!

Co-worker received his Big o' Cosmos today:

2 Flying Monkeys
1 Breast Pump
1 2-Pak Aqua Globes
1 Ear-muffs
1 Red purse

His weighed in at 3.9 lbs.

Good Luck!!!



This could of been my spoiler. I went from 4.9 to 3.9 lbs. One of those monkeys must of escaped somewhere between Dallas and New Berlin.

Just checked it again and now it says 3.4lbs. Either I am blind, or another monkey escaped.

As noted by others, you miss the point; the crap is not the issue it's the fun, excitement, and adrenalin rush associated with this venture. Even a great haul, including those involving letters, often includes crap (who needs a pallet of car wash?).

Now, what happened to thevoiceover, that's truly crappy. To thevoiceover: condolences to you and your family...

My 16.8x16.8x16.8 box still weighs 17.8 pounds and has made it to Martinsburg WV.

I'm thinking that if I get a box full of breast pumps I'll take them to a store that sells them, sneak them on their shelves, and totally mess up their inventory count

Just got mine. Was a 5.8 pounder.
*****spoiler*****







A small black beaded purse that my Fiancée might actually like.
2x Flaming Screaming Woot Monkeys(I ordered one later in the woot off so now I have three of them! WOOT!)
1x Woot Calender(makes two total since I also ordered one of those)
1x Iphone/Ipod remote, Philips. Looks like it is for some kind of ipod dock. I just got a Verizon Iphone two days ago, not sure if I can use this
2x Aquaglobes
2x 1/4inch ratchets
2x Dual Sided Palm Ratchets
1x set of earbuds. They're actually pretty nice!
1x Part of an "InCharge for PS3" Part #ICPS3700. Says o only use it with the AC adapter that came with it, which was not included. (No clue what this is, I'm an Xbox 360 guy)
Lastly, some weird little plastic thing with two USB B plugs on it, one in and one out. Has a little clip on it that folds upward and could hold something about the size of an AA battery. Has no markings or logos on it.


I'm very happy with this Big o' Cosmos! My best yet! Good luck to the rest of you!

Edit:
I forgot to add the breast pump!

B of C left Dallas weighing 4.8 lbs. Arrived in Allenton, Pa. weighing 3.1 lbs. Taking so long it's starting to ferment. Maybe by the time it reaches me it will be a letter.!!!

Woo Hoo! When I got home from the gym, my beat-up old Camero had been delivered. Contents?

- 2 screaming monkeys (one kid loves 'em, the other hates them)
- Aqua Globes (none broken)
- some kind of white purse thingy (wife got a good laugh out of it).
- 2 baby's organic cotton bodysuits (for girls ages 0-3 months)
- Delphi XM audio system (like a boombox for XM stereo) (no XM unit, no power supply or XM antenna, and no way to plug anything else into it)
- and of course, the manual breast pump (or as my wife says, a nipple exerciser).

As my older sons said, "Yep, that's pretty random!"

1 - Ugly, cylindrical white sequined purse with faux gold chain strap that reeks of Elmer's glue
2 - Screaming Monkeys, fire cape
1 - Breast Pump
1 - Aqua Globes (2-ct. box)
1 - Refurbed Delphi Roady XT XM Satellite Radio Dock (unit loose in box, no manuals or ac adapter, with a note dated January 22, 2007 saying that the unit tested OK)

Luckily I have a box of spare AC adapter here at work, and one of them has the right connector and specs of the official one. Plus I have one of the XM portable units in my car, so I'll go grab that and see if this thing actually works.

I enjoyed mine. Nothing new that hasn't already been mentioned.

Pack of 2 aqua globes (using already)
2 screaming monkeys (a big hit at work)
wraparound ear muffs (just wish they had been here 2 weeks ago!)
black canister type purse (perfect size for hanging in the bathroom and putting my jewelry in when I sleep or bathe)
breast milk containers (really this is just four 3oz containers with screw on lids that are the perfect size for salad dressing or dip to bring with my lunch)

Overall I am much more pleased with this Big o' Cosmos than the one I got a few years ago.

My Big o' Cosmos finally got to Atlanta this afternoon.

Why did it take 4 days to go from Dallas to Atlanta? It's still 5.1 lbs and an 11.9" cube.
Expected it to become a rectangle when it hit ATL. Well, we'll see when it gets here Wednesday
