That'll teach you, sucker...

WOOT! Scored a bag! What a week! LSU takes Alabama, Modern Warfare 3, Woot-off, passed the GRE to get into the Master's program, Star Wars beta test conformation e-mail, and a Big ol' Cornucopia!!! Send the best crap you can - I dare you. Sad to hear about TPW... hope he's off to better things!

Could send it wrapped inside one of those queen size mattresses. Big enough turkey takes a long time to defrost and a mattress is a lot of insulation.

For me, I think I would love a touch screen PC or a Xoom. I would never buy either but I would love to play around with one.

I would love a Dyson all floors vacuume... I have the Dyson Animal, but recently moved into a house with mostly tile floors, and I HATE sweeping. Oh and with my son just starting to crawl, I feel like I'm sweeping 10 times a day!

The practical side of me wants either Dyson vacuum or a little giant ladder. However, the other side of me wants (working) electronics.

I would like a wibbly ball and a bag with an animal on it....

oh and an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle!

Couple different things: The santa monkey that I missed (someone mentioned that) and the sock monkey. I collect them and love the dang things so much.

Big item, a TV bigger than 32 inches as my husband desperately wants one and there is no way we can afford it this year.

I hear that! Actually I don't know how much use I'd get from a Dyson aside from marveling at the fact that I actually *had* a Dyson, those things are really neat! I'd prob give it to my mom though since she needs a new vacuum.

I love that movie. Nice reference. I want the lamp

Buckyballs fall into that category for me. Although, if I were shooting for the moon I'd wish for a Dyson.

Oh, or some kind of really nice high end flashlight.

Oh, oh, or a Leatherman.

Oh, oh, oh, or a play kitchen for my daughter.

I've got the lamp, I'll trade you for the Red Ryder!

It's a Major Award.


And, you'll shoot your eye out, kid.

I know, totally awesome, right? TOTALLY unintentional. I'm thinking of a career as a humourist.

Although, I kinda like things like eating, shelter and clothing.

Christmas magic bag? I just want one thing: a set of official woot-off lights.

I bought three of the Dream Cheeky USB Mailbox Friends Alerts in hopes of getting a set of woot-off lights so I could hack up a frankenstein bag-of-crap alert system. Unfortunately, there were no lights offered, and I don't have any

C'mon woot, make my Christmas extra crappy!

What do I want in my Big ol' Cornucopia you ask?

Well a random bag of course! and perhaps random crap #1, toss in a random crap #2, and a dollar bill signed by the new Big ol' Cornucopia handler in the shape of a bird or other animal :>

I'd love to get a working Roomba. It's one of those things that I think would be REALLY neat to play around with, but I just can't see myself actually buying one.

I went in for one of the 400 series Roombas Woot offered. The only thing that makes me sad about buying it is that the battery life means it can spend 20 or so minutes on a room...But if the room is kinda big, it dies before it gets all the areas. Other than that, totally worth the purchase! I'm now willing to foot the cost of one of the series with the charging base and scheduling.

As for what I want, fingers crossed, I'd say a tablet PC (for my daughter), an LCD monitor in the 21-24" range, or comparable HDTV, and one of those DVR security camera systems. And a bag of some sort.

What do I think I'll get? Some insulated bag that smells mildly toxic, a set of headphones, replete with earwax, a moderately creepy child's toy of some sort and a four-pack of cables for which I have no compatible equipment. :D

If you don't get them...PM Me and I will send you a set still in the box. After all it is the holiday season =*)

So has anyone figured out a way to judge what the general contents of one of the Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia#39;s would be by the other posters online? Do all of the products in these boxes go through seasons? Like, is it Foot flush season? Or water globe season? Or are we lucky enough to be in a furniture polish season?

Also, Woot... I'm very excited for my Bag... I can barely stand it.

For me, I think I would love a touch screen PC or a Xoom. I would never buy either but I would love to play around with one.

Ditto ... although I also would be very happy to receive (any) TV to replace my 15-year-old model that is ready to retire.

My wishlist for the Booties on Chickenwire is a tablet PC, a nice big TV, or a good full-sized computer or laptop. (Though, my fiancee was really sad to miss the Mortar and Pestle from the most recent woot-off...)

Of course, I'll be happy with the crap I get

Just wanted to encourage everyone who was lucky enough to get a Big ol' Cornucopia to do an unboxing video and throw it up on YouTube (or other video sharing of your choice) and post a link here. I always try to tape the opening (include the box dims and weight from FedEx)..always fun watching others open theirs and live vicariously through the videos.

You never know, you might even be one of the very very lucky people who receives "The Letter" and it's fun to watch the video of people opening the box and seeing that. I was lucky enough to recieve the "The Letter" last year and was recoding the whole time... pretty amazing. If you want to check that out, here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WKP0aOobKU

I would like gold in my Bandolier of Carrots!

Seriously though, I would be happy if I got some unusual items in mine. Last time I got the same stuff most people did, and I made the (unfortunate) decision to watch the forums so I knew what to expect. I think this time I'll stay away and be surprised by what I get. So, see everyone in a few weeks!

I just watched the youtube video of the guy that got 800 jars of car wax in his Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia... hilarious, yet awesome. My old car could use some wax. I could only dream of such a wonderful bounty

I know some folks here got scads of XM Satellite radio receivers in previous Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia. I have tried to arrange to get some of these through PMs but nobody has replied to my latest replies.

Does anybody have any of these they don't want? PM me!

A 32 in TV, a Xoom tablet, High MP camera, and Screaming monkeys of any type to add to my collection Alos, and reasonable thng from kids woot, got 2 kiddos to spoil here.

Will ultimately be happy with any crappy

Well, if we're going to express our secret BORC hopes...
I'm wishing for a vacuum of any kind. All I have right now is a broom, but a Roomba would be positively amazing.

Mr. Capable Hands since you are now the responsible individual for the most beautiful of cerbralism, Is it possible to control the bounty headed to individual recipients, or is it completely random?

P.S. I hope I can get some good Christmas shopping done with your help!

Check your PMs!

a gps! or a broken set of buckyballs ... or a spare stylus for my Entourage Pocket eDGe from the multitude of those that must've been returned. or a borken eDGe to play with ... or well, whatever.

the real fun is in passing the stuff along as random acts of kindness. like how the lady at the hospital check in ended up with a sand dollar tote bag that she admired ... it's fun!

If you don't get your Vacuum in this Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia I have a ReadiVac 110v Hand Vac I'd trade from my last Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia

PM if interested.

I suspect attempting to control the bounty would backfire

wish list?

Wasn't there a Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia where somebody got an envelope of cash? That'd work.

Hey! That's awesome. As a reciprocal gesture, if I can manage to hack together the aforementioned frankenstein gadget, I'll send YOU one in return, in the spirit of the holidays.

That about sums it up for me!

Checked order number in the fedex reference this morning, nothing yet.

Maybe it's mentioned in the preceding pages, but anyone else notice this:

Woots sold: 2486

Usually, that number's much closer to 3,000 (as in: it usually is 3,000, usually).

Woot! seems to be suffering some constipation, as there's some 514 craps stuck, somewhere.

That happened to me once, I didnt know it was possible to clog a Porta-Potty.
