creepy man.

OK, here is proof of the TV:



and proof it is from woot:


And no, I didn't scrape off my address to prevent you pervs from finding me, fedex did that themselves! This box has quite a beating put to it.

I haven't unpacked the TV since I have no idea where to put it. Tiny house with one large TV already! And I don't even have cable...

I will probably be looking to see if some family or friends would want it.

Anyway...
inside the box I did find another envelope. Inside that envelope was a letter, I think you should be able to read it. But don't yet, it will ruin the next surprise:

Yeah, it is a little creepy...

A headband..but surely that is the #36 that I received earlier...



That's right, I'm #1.

Gabemax wrote:Yeah, it is a little creepy...

and how did you find that picture of me in the monkey suit??

Nice Haul!

adamant628 wrote:and how did you find that picture of me in the monkey suit??

The monkey suit itself is what's creepy, of course, not the fact that some random w00ter dude can look up someone's image so easily...


On another note, I think it's appropriate that I'm the one here inadvertently spoiling your big reveal, since I was such a big proponent of the headband thing all along.

I still think it's awesome. Congrats on the coveted #1!

Very awesome haul. Congrats man!!! See you in the next forum!!!!

Rats! My barcode scanner gets nothing from those bar codes... Someday, someday...

==========================================

Holy C R A P!

You hit the WOOT! lottery BIG TIME! The rest of us can only dream of making it to the big time the way you have. Seriously. I'm NOT being sarcastic here. I was guessing you had maybe scored an actual Bundle of Crops paper bag or something. Headband #1 is pretty freaking cool. (Don't get me wrong - a Bundle of Crops paper bag would also have been incredibly cool! Yes, I'm still being completely serious here. I'm a bit weird.)

Of course when I put on MY headband my wife started laughing out loud and comparing me to Richard Simmons...... NO FREAKING WAY! Richard Simmons is short, and slender, and "happy" seeming. I'm tall and fat and not at all "happy" seeming! I also can't jump around like he does -- see the FAT part of my description. Whatever....

Congratulations on your magnificent WOOT! score. TPW has indeed blessed you. First you had a superior Bindle of Carrots, then you got THE LETTER, and then you ended up with a telemevision and Headband #1. I'd say you've pretty much found the grail....

(Now we are left wondering who got headband #3000.......)

Cherish this fine gift. For many, maybe even most here, your #1 prize outshines the TV. Congratulations!

I got #2980. Close, but not quite there.

Does that mean the person with the #2 headband gets to challenge you to a fight for possession of the #1 Headband?

Afro-Samurai style!

what all would one get in a random crap bag?

i've never bought one or ever heard what people get.

Crap. I got useless Hannah Montana make your own video software...had to be used with some crap camera Disney sold. Couldn't even give it away. Worse $8 I ever spent. Makes me hesitant to even try again.

This Bundle of Crops was my first!
I got what appears to be the common items of sweatbands, Fact or Crap, and the UV toothbrush sanitizer.

Two questions, though. I thought that we could only select quantity 1, is that true? If not, is it possible to get more than one of the same item?

Nowadays, woot defaults everyone to 3 craps. Your receipt may show "you want 1 ... 3 Random Craps". Basically, everyone buys 1 3-pack of crap.
Anything is possible with the random crap. Yes, it is very possible to get more than one of the same item in your order. You should get at least 3 items and one bag of some kind. The items can be the same thing.

Very awesome letter, you are truly #1 this round!

Well, that letter answered that those of us with the moofi crap had NO chance at the letter. Which is... crap.

I'm not hating your luck though - congrats! Really though, if you don't want the TV - I'll take it!

Bwahahahahahahaha.... You should have seen the dreaded WOOKIE PURSE!

You aren't really spending the $8 for anything useful. It's billed as CRAP and that's mostly what you will get. My first Bindle of Carrots actually had around $300 worth of "stuff" in it. Granted, most of it was stuff I didn't have a use for but it was actually stuff that worked (except for one item that was totally broken in half). (My other bags of crap were exactly as advertised - pure CRAP!)

The fact that I GOT THE Bindle of Carrots at all was the big deal. You pay for the THRILL of GETTING the crap. You don't pay for the actual crap. Once in a while you get something pretty cool. My daughter loved the working Sansa I got in my first Bundle of Crops. One of her friends loved the leather iPhone cover I got in it as well. Sometimes you can actually score good crap (or at least you USED to be able to score some good crap). It seems to have gone downhill since the EVIL EMPIRE (amazon.com) bought out the RIGHTEOUS ORIGINAL WOOT! FOLKS. (Damn, there goes any infinitesimal chance I may have ever had at getting THE LETTER - Ok, TPW rocks but......).

Seriously though. It says right up front that it's crap. Why be disappointed when that's what you get?

Nicely said. If I were "the powers that be", I'd give you a quality post. Unfortunately, I am just plain ol' me. But still, it's a very good post.

And yes, I survived the dreaded WOOKIE PURSE!
Hmm, that would make a nice T-shirt slogan.

Well this Random Crap was a bust for me, nothing really good. The only thing in my bundle I plan on keeping is the water bottle. Don't care for the headband and wrist bands and I already have a million tote bags. If I'm lucky I'll sell the toothbrush sanitizer for $5 at a yard sale or something. And it took 30 days to get here whatsmore!



Oh well, already scored another crap from Woot's birthday, hopefully it'll be better!

Is there a thread for the Woot birthday crap? I just got shipping info...5.7 pounds. Hope it's good. I got a 20+ pound box once and it was full of steel buckets (with holes drilled in them)

Yep, you're lost. See that road over there? Ya need to go down there until you reach the July 12th Woot, which was the Kodak Wireless Printer.

Everyone's waiting for ya there!

5.7 sounds more promising than mine. Just got the tracking as well... only 1.0...

You're lost too. And the 1.0 is probably a placeholder. Check again on it, at a later time.

Any updates on who won the photo contest and what they got?

adamant628 wrote:Any updates on who won the photo contest and what they got?

I haven't seen anything. BTW, congrats on your letter and being #1!

I just tracked my package and it has the weight at 48 lbs. Fingers crossed for an anvil...

Just snuck the wrist/head bands into the background on a national commercial (turned to the side so you can't see the woot logo for obvious legal reasons)... Client could still veto it for a "july 4th" vibe, but lets hope they don't!

Unfortunately I can't show it until November, but they're there. :D

Crap.

So when I received this bandoleer, it included a clearly refurbished iPod dock/speaker, which I didn't pay much attention to. The front of the packaging was torn up, the whole thing wrapped in tape, and it basically looked like somebody used it as a football. While cleaning up today, I decided I'd open it up and see what all was missing, and to my surprise, found that it was all in nearly perfect shape inside. The only things not still new in packaging were a couple of the cradle adapters, suggesting that somebody opened it, then realized it didn't fit their model, and returned it with destroyed outer packaging for some reason. Even the batteries for the remote were still there in their original shrink wrap.

I plugged it in, attached my iPod, and voila - worked beautifully. It's not a super high-end system or anything, but I think I scored here without realizing it. An $80 shelf unit in perfect condition for $3... can't complain. Thanks, Woot!

For anybody who cares, this is the unit received: http://www.amazon.com/Cyber-Acoustics-Portable-Digital-Docking/dp/B000XVM22U
