I got in my 3.5 pound Bag:

1 Lunch bag
1 box (24) Glow sticks
1 Hulk Smash USB Button
1 Refurbished TomTom XXL 550 GPS (in a sealed box!)

Definitely one of the better bags I've gotten

You cant get rid of that, it's the woot equivalent of a signed Mickey Mantle card, or to put it in dork terms, Spiderman #1 signed by Stan Lee (except you couldn't really sell it)

6.7 pounds, delivered a day early.

(1) fake wii game, or most of it
(1) flimsy blue duffel
(1) piece of red Lock n Lock container
(1) filthy, used, PS/2 keyboard
(18) Texas Air

Not disappointed...we'll always have the RC Helicopter Barrels of Crud and the iPod-full-of-RnB-music + weather station Barrels of Crud I'm still ahead!

My 3.1 lb'r was on the porch when I got home.

In the box:

1 - USB Hulk panic button, haven't tried install

1 - XL plain dark brown Jerzees t-shirt

1 - re-cycled flower print baggie brown in color.

AND . . . . . .

1 - Medium zip-lock bag: Remote, cables, batteries, and manual for a Hidear 32 LCD TV.

Question, where the HELL is the TV?
Anyone think I should email the Colonel and ask if it's still on the way.

FedEx Shipping info: 4.2 lbs, 18x14.6x14.2

17 x Bag Texas Air
1 x Generic blue duffle bag
1 x Hulk USB Smash button
1 x Pack of musical wedding cards (2 cards) and a reminder to re-order
1 x Reburb XXL 550 TomTom returned by a woot customer after receiving delivery on 12/6/2011 near Cleveland, OH based on shipper stuck to screen. They also didn't seem to find the USB cable that was still tucked away. The car charger was definitely used, so I'm nervous about the battery.

The GPS shows that it's getting a charge, powered on, but after a few moments charge, it showed low battery and shut down. If it works, this could be my best Barrels of Crud yet. If it doesn't, it was still fun!

Thanks Woot!

I agree it was nice to see the returned electronics. No so nice for the people that got shorted, but that leaves the field open for something awesome to come to their doors.
I would like to know what they will end up getting.

Maybe I missed it, but I have not seen any of those 20+lbs bags or what's in them. Just curious.



Well my 27.6lbs of joy was suppose to be here on the 1st but looks like its sitting in sac and wont make it to the bay area and my house till the 2nd.

I will be sure to post here and put uo a video of that big bundle of joy

I got mine today too. Not much but more than Crap....

lets see....

2 non-descript XL t-shirts, one hanes light blue, one fruit of the loom blue (sort of)

1 pair black, isotoner (i think) gloves

1 non-descript black duffle bag

1 pair Musx white noise isolating earphones.

disappointed but compared to what others got, seems all in line.

maybe next time, my Bag of Cuuuuuute! will be better!!!

MY 2nd Bag of CUUUUUUTE contained:

1 Ultamotion MOTION CONTROL videogame: SWING ZONE SPORTS
1 iLuv Webcam
1 RED DUFFELLS
2 Bags of Texas Air

So crappy Wii is pretty ridiculous but the webcam is pretty awesome despite the fact that every computer we have has an internal webcam. ALSO they gave me the same bag as my last bag which is kind of funny.

I'm pretty happy considering I didn't want another SPITBALL DARTPAD

16 - AA and AAA batteries (needed those!)
1 - Soccer Net! (hence the metal poles sticking out of the box)

Looks like someone had there way with my 5lb box of crap. The postman handed it to me a day early (a happy surprise!) but the box was open already and beat up a bit (sad surprise). My box only contained the standard red duffel and a spitball dartboard. I sent an email to Woot service but as this is not their doing, I am not hopeful . This was my first Barrels of Crud in the +4 years i have been a wooter. I am normally a very happy wooter and will continue to be one . Hope everyone enjoys their crap!

3.6# shipment:

2x ugly XL FOL t-shirts
1x spitboard
and a 2 pack of philips 9ft HDMI cables (unopened... boring)
and of course a flowered lunch bag

A bit boring, but still fun for my second Barrels of Crud

Are you in the bay area also? My 27.6 lb bag is now stalled there and my date also changed to the 2nd from the 1st.

I hope it still makes it down to Vallejo on the 1st cause if its the 2nd I wont be able to pick it up till friday from the post ofice.

Hooray, I seem to have gotten some unique stuff. 3.7 lbs in a box that was much larger than it needed to be

x1 blue duffel

x6 8 packs of wisp brushee things (kids 6x8=48)

x4 flying monkey capes, I think that's what they are anyway

x1 Incredible Hulk USB hulk smash button

x1 blue bird with a switch and a button (does nothing)

x1 Stone head figure (ala Easter Island)

x1 sickeningly cute pony figurine

x1 sickeningly cute baby angel figurine

x1 note that reads "ColonelCrap says flip the switch on my back and slide a piece of paper in the slot below my face."


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v486/CrazedWhy/2012-01-31_23-13-14_331.jpg

As for the note, I first thought that it must have to do with the stone head figure, seeing as how it has a switch on the back and a slot below its face. However, flipping the switch and sliding the note in the slot did not yield any results. Therefore I have to conclude that ColonelCrap was just inviting me to come over for some strange ritual involving paper cuts.


[MOD: Resized that for ya!]
[OP: Thank you!]

Exact same haul, 3.0 Lbs.

The shirt is actually more orange but my phone's camera wants it to be yellow. I think I will tinker with the Hulk button and try to map it to the F5 key and possibly a little usb storage for Wootalyzer and a USB port for Woot lights while I'm at it. Horray for projects I may never finish!

Mine's pretty similar to yours. 3.3# and just arrived in Sacramento today around that time. Mine was originally going to be delivered on the 2nd, but they changed it to the 3rd.

My BofC arrived yesterday. As suspected (due to the weight/size of the BofC), I'm amongst the lucky ones who got more than just a T and a bag.


My BofC contained:

  • 2 T's
  • 1 Duffel Bag
  • 1 Hulk smash button
  • 1 Bingo card
  • 1 Spitball board

And the really cool stuff:

  • 1 Chalk City (link)
  • 1 Talk to Me Baseball Set (link)




Thanks, Woot!

My 39.6 lb Bag of Cuuuuuute! arrived yesterday.

I only got 1 bag and 1 crap.

The box contained a Fire Stone Cook Number 20" Grill and a lunch bag.

Pretty sweet but I have no idea what to do with it.

Sorry about that. A replacement order has been initiated and should ship in the next few days. As soon as the package is shipped, you should receive a follow-up email with the tracking details.

My 4.8 lb carp arrived yesterday and as always ... very glad that I got one!

Got
2 Plain XL Shirts (blue and orangey brown)

1 FBI/CIA Films Declassified DVD Set

1 Spitball Dartboard

1 Bag that was not flowered. Yay!!!

As always, 1/2 the fun is the waiting and speculation. 1/4 is stalking your mailman. 1/3 is opening the carp. 1/7 is taking the photo and sharing it with the Interwebz. 5/32 is apparently a size of a nut.

My son got that bird in a McDonald's Happy Meal last year. But it looks like they shorted you the skateboard it was supposed to come with. Is WOOT! re-gifting Happy Meal crap?
