The last two woot offs I was here at the end of the last thing on Woot was a monkey and on Home Woot was the KY Date Pack... They did sell the Date Packs yesterday so maybe I'm off or just hopeful but...

Great comment and you are absolutely right. I am tired and cranky. All you bad spellers and folks who don't know the difference between grammar and your mother's mother... I forgive you. hehehe Gnight.

Honestly, took it as you trying to say you hadn't bought anything (since nothing worthwhile was listed) so you hadn't unlocked free shipping.

Thought you were being cheeky. Oops!

I have only gotten one bog of corp. However it was quite wonderful, every item was something I could use or knew someone who could use it. Nothing horribly expensive, but quality items.

I can't speak for VT, but there's no shipping to AK or HI. So, when we in AK buy, it shows up in whatever state we have it shipped to. Tonight there may be nobody in AK buying, but that's not always the case :0)

No, they probably _do_ want a monkey, not a masked teddy bear like object.

Does anyone else want the old monkey's back as bad as I do? These new bear like monkeys suck. Bring back Monty and Mortimer! Get rid of these Berenstein Bears! Someone in purchasing needs their ass kicked over this deal.

Being anal retentive about spelling isn't the way to reinforce your stance.

The fact is, Woot! does owe us something. Consumers are THE driving force behind Woot!'s business. While I don't have any numbers, I would venture to guess that a majority of the purchases from Woot! come from members who comment in the forums. Sometimes Woot! has great items, sometimes it is junk. But, often, during Woot-offs, members of the Woot! community purchase these "junkier" items in support moving on to the next item and ultimately achieving the opportunity to purchase a "bag-of-crap".

Giving credit to Woot!, it appears the quality of the Brigade of Campers has gone up in recent months, but there's no denying that the lack of regular opportunities to not just purchase a "bag", but to enjoy typical Woot! purchases that grew Woot! to the reputation is has to day, is certainly off-putting to the longtime Wooting community. The individuality of Woot! has directly led to the success to date, and the recent lack thereof has recently let down it's most loyal supporters.

Whether you think it's right or not, the standard has been set, and there are expectations to be met.

Has anyone really answered the question..
How much woot would a woot-chuck chuck, if a woot-chuck could chuck Woot? And, how many of us really want to chuck Woot?

I said that about two woot-offs ago and I was mistaken. The last item sold out, and it was a normal woot after the last woot of the night. Still, hope springs eternal...

EVERYBODY needs at least three monkeys. I get them every time, and give them to the children of my friends and siblings. Kids are smarter than they look and quickly figure out that they can make the monkey scream by smacking their brother/sister/cousin/dog/parent with it.

I just love watching the minivans drive off with the sweet sound of Woot screaming monkeys in their wake...
