Maybe you can also answer the questions of is this over? That should keep you busy.

Pretty soon there will be Screaming Monkeys in every US home. some homes may have 2 or 3 Screaming Monkeys. Next Census there will be a question how many Screaming Monkeys do you have. Don't be surprised if the government takes your Screaming Monkeys away if you are found to have too many. That would be Obama's SME plan. (Screaming Monkeys Equalization plan.



This is just WRONG!! (But, I'm keepin' it, 'cause it's funny!)

Oh, ANY monkey is a "flaming monkey" if you have a lighter. (Yes, that's wrong, too!) :D

I remember back when it was just woot and shirt.woot and how if you bought some junk during a woot.off. could take over a month for it to get shipped, not to mention delivered.

But now, look how much woot has grown! - now being able to handle a shirt.woot contest and 3, yes 3, fast-paced woot.offs all at once!
Getting in with amazon. But still trying to keep it real with their whitty, seldom hilarious, but often amusing product descriptions. Those small satirical stories intertwine various product specifications with humor and fiction given to us in the form of prose, poems, letters, tales, conversations and they should be read more. but this is hard to do during a rapid-fire refresh f5 storm surrounding the await of the new item, that, alas, is somehow sold out already.
"Woot!", Shakespeare would write it as tragedy... sweet, humorous, yes. but also brilliant, torturous... and for the commoner.

so is this the end?

I do a daily woot blog where I talk about the woot, link to CSEs, find reviews, etc. A few people have told me it's useful. Google "useful linkage" and there it is.

My dogs (labs) look with little interest, though my cats are very interested. Too small and unappetizing for my pups. They eat drywall.

Anyone have an extra or two they'd like to sell? Please PM me. Once again I went to bed too early! I either need a new job that doesn't start so early or need to move to the west coast.

Missed the flaming cape. Will buy or trade for one.

I've got all previous monkeys with the exception of the very first one.

The flaming monkey was given out at CES on Friday. There was no requirement to keep them under wraps. In fact, it wasn't until I talked to a few friends a day or two later who have all the monkeys that I found out they never previously sold this pattern. I also didn't know it was going to be sold this woot off until it came up on the screen. The cards I picked up from Woot's booth as well, and placed them so that contact info isn't visible. On Friday, Woot also gave out a couple snow leopard monkeys, as well as blue and pink keychain monkeys.

I'm happy.

(sigh)--May I suggest you go to the top of this page and click on "what is woot?" and read the information under "frequently asked questions" regarding ordering.

The answers to your questions are there.

Cute. But what isn't answered in the FAQ is how long it takes FedEx to "receive" the information. I received my tracking order 2 days ago and FedEx still says it doesn't exist. Usually, within 12 hours I can get my info however it has been 48 hours with nothing updated.

I'm purely speculating but I think the recent "Weatherpocolypse" has either impeded Woot's delivery to FedEx or FedEx's ability to update their records.

Have you ever been in Dallas during/after an ice storm? NOTHING is moving there right now, or at least very little. Warmer weather is coming and when it does Woot will be working very hard to catch up with everything.

It has nothing to do with the weather.... Everyone down there is at Cowboy Stadium taking in the Super Bowl festivities. :-)

Screaming poor delivery! I've been waiting on two screaming monkeys for three weeks now. What's up with that, Woot? I will be reluctant to Woot again in the future, unless my monkeys are delivered pronto.

We had some horrendous weather last week that basically killed 4 days here not only for our staff but also FedEx who stopped pickup/deliveries. We apologize for the inconvenience and plead for your patience.
