@castlelogical@lkblaser Hmmmm. I have some that I bought here last year and still haven’t come across one from that batch that didn’t light. Must be a better batch.
@castlelogical@katbyter@lkblaser If you have tons of time on your hands, opening them up and cleaning the batteries and contacts should restore about half of the dead ones.
@castlelogical@katbyter@lkblaser@PooltoyWolf Did you do this to this years spinners? I was able to fix a lot of last years that way but didn’t have any luck on the one I tried this year. Should I try it with more?
@castlelogical@katbyter@lkblaser@sammydog01 I did that last year; I haven’t ordered any this time around but assumed it would be a similar solution. Most of mine worked last year.
Really?! We can do fidget spinners, 160 of them in fact, but we cant put up simple MEH face pop sockets. I’m insulted, it’s like MEH has literally slapped me in the face.
so last week we paid 11 dollars for 40 (with the 5 dollar rebate coupon)…and this week you reduce the price to almost half?..and this seems right, why exactly?
What you should be doing is sending everyone who bought LED spinners an amount to equal this deal…
ESP since you were too lazy to even check the damn things and YOUR customers (including me) had to point out they did not work…
@fastharry
When was this?!?! I ordered the spinners from 10/20/2017, order flagrant-wheat-termite. They were supposed to cr2025 batteries according to the write up, but when I finally had replacement batteries in hand and was going to fix the dead ones, the spinners were really cr1220. The number that didn’t work sucked,and I never saw a $5 coupon. It was probably for a different deal. Apparently I’m too picky about my fidgets, and meh isn’t good enough.
@username doesn’t stop them selling tshirts every other day now. When I first saw this I thought it must be a T-shirt with a picture of 160 fidget spinner on it
@blaineg@hutchnow@SkyyPunk three for me - i like the way it strobes against the monitor refresh rate and looks like it stops and changes direction. wow.
Meh, I feel like you guys are doing some dangerously bad deals. I can stand in solidarity with other mediocrities and say fidget spinner. Think about you standards mediocre not abysmal, disgraceful, disgusting, sloth-like, shameful, notorious, loathing, estrangement inducing, terrible, hellspawning, horrendous, dreadful, tragic, grieving, appalling, atrocious, obloquy, abhorrent, abominating, execrating,

(Running out of words here) but I refuse to cheapen this with a thesaurus,

That is meh, not the demonizing, harpie mongoring soul crushing destroyers of goodness,
@thismyusername@tightwad Fidelity Smedelity… I was impressed with the fact that scratchy, worse than AM radio sound actually squawked out of them that was broadcast from my phone.
There aren’t many other things that I can think of that putting a bluetooth speaker into them would be more pointless.
I’m sad. You sold fidget spinners for more a couple of weeks ago. They still haven’t arrived. Actually, those costed even more because my 160 I bought had 80 LEDs, and those cost even less now. I would love to cancel my original order and get 160 printed ones for less, but I can’t. The only thing that can quench my thirst for useless and broken objects is those spinners. I wanted to glue them all over my body for Halloween. Either those or a solid, crusty old block of candy corn. love that stuff.
The yellow ones are glow in the dark according to the label in the picture.
I am thinking about these… someone smack me. I do not need more spinners. I had zero kids for trick or treat last year so that is not a good excuse. Maybe at work…
@speediedelivery If it helps any the glow in the dark ones are weird and rubbery and noticeably lower quality than the rest in the printed pack. There was also only 4 of them and 9 of each of the other designs in my pack. (If you’re buying just for the glow ones: don’t.)
@speediedelivery I bought them last year for halloween at the new house… Only had 2 kids show up… Still have the box of fidget spinners sitting in the house… Maybe I’ll have better luck this halloween?
@unksol I read that as “should” or in other words “we hope”, or “maybe”.
Last year’s order didn’t even move out of the warehouse for several days. They did arrive on the afternoon of the 31st, but they missed the neighborhood kiddie party a few days earlier.
For all my shoppers out there buyin’ spinners,
I don’t care where you at;
The Sam’s Club parking lot,
The express lane at Walmart, whatever
What I want you to do right now is just stop,
And let em’ keep spinnin’ baby!
I’m buyin’ spinners, I’m buyin’ spinners
I won’t stop
I’m buyin’ spinners, I’m buyin’ spinners
I won’t stop
I’m buyin’ spinners, I’m buyin’ spinners
I won’t stop
I’m buyin’ spinners, I’m buyin’ spinners
I’m broke now
I got the bummer no-light-LED-pack last time. Does anyone know a cheap alternative thing I could put in each “arm” instead of replacing all the batteries (to make it a plain spinner)? I know I could just leave them in, just wondering if anyone had any good ideas.
@blaineg@schmani I’d been debating whether to throw my tub out. Neither handing out broken shit for Halloween nor spending hours trying to fix these seem like better alternatives.
@sammydog01@schmani I know nothing about these things, but how about taking one to the hardware store and seeing if a heavy duty washer would fit in it? Should be pretty cheap if it works.
I got these last time they were offered. Got a chance to test them out. I will say, the non-LED ones are nicer and MUUUUCH heavier. Actually have metal weights and are more beefy, since the LED ones just have the LEDs, circuit board, and batteries instead of the weights. Something to consider.
Irritated that theses are significantly cheaper than last month but meh… DO NOT GET THE LED ONES like about 3 our of each bucket actually light up. And without the lights they are not worth a because they have no weight to them stick with the other ones
It is so very Meh that the coupon for my defective LED spinners expired before it arrived. It even expired before I place my original order. Perhaps it should have been August 2019, not 2018? Typo?
@HordeFather Maybe someone can clear this up for me, but does the coupon work on any order?..assuming it hasn’t already expired in the past? Or does it only apply to ANOTHER of fidget spinners offered today?
Oh god, no more! I already have a butt ton ready for Halloween. For those of you considering these for next year? C’mon! You don’t think meh will have some other massive nonsense thing to give it out 12 months from now?
Ordered these few weeks ago. LED ones. When I told my 11yo what we were giving for halloween, he was disappointed. Said fidget spinners were no longer cool. Once he used one, he changed his mind. The lights make it fun. Should be extra fun on a dark halloween night.
Many of the spinners had dead batteries. Ordered more today as spare batteries. Used coupon code that came with first order since batteries suck.
I’m in for 160 fidget spinners. I don’t know if I’ll send all 160 in a huge box to my frenemy, or if I’ll send 160 separate packages to him, but either way, BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT EVER

@Moose someone suggested it to me
@reclaimercube
@RiotDemon /giphy see you again
Why are you like this, meh?
That Meh button ROCKS.
The spinning meh button was a stoke of genius!
But now I want to spin it again…
@shahnm Now I’m gonna have to hit meh to see what you’re talking about.
@shahnm Yeah…that was pretty good.
@shahnm If you revisit the main page, the meh faceget spinner will spin again!
@shahnm
It’s funny, while I was watching it spin, I thought to myself, “What the hell — the damn thing is possessed.” Then I read the writeup.
Funny how the picture of the LED ones accurately depicts how some are not lit.
@katbyter One could argue that it’s not entirely accurate. I see more lights on than off, when almost all of mine had only one or no lights working.
@castlelogical @katbyter I had only 8 out of 80 where all three were lit and some of those were very dim.
@castlelogical @lkblaser Hmmmm. I have some that I bought here last year and still haven’t come across one from that batch that didn’t light. Must be a better batch.
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser If you have tons of time on your hands, opening them up and cleaning the batteries and contacts should restore about half of the dead ones.
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser @PooltoyWolf
/giphy too much time on your hands
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser @PooltoyWolf Did you do this to this years spinners? I was able to fix a lot of last years that way but didn’t have any luck on the one I tried this year. Should I try it with more?
@katbyter @lkblaser @PooltoyWolf That sounds more like a job for the random neighborhood kids I’m handing out these spinners to, than for me.
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser @sammydog01 I did that last year; I haven’t ordered any this time around but assumed it would be a similar solution. Most of mine worked last year.
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser @PooltoyWolf Yeah, different situation this year. These just have dead batteries.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@katbyter Not very accurate. I got one per unit that lit, maybe, and, if there was another, it was too dim for the blue to show.
@castlelogical @katbyter @lkblaser @sammydog01 Huh. Maybe they’d sat around long enough that they finally just died.
This can be handed out for Halloween, in 2019. They surely will still be a hot item then, right?
I thought all fidget spinners disappeared from the surface of the earth at the end of 2017 ascending to fidget spinner heaven.
@OnionSoup put them in the Atari landfill
@OnionSoup They were pushed of the edge of the earth. Fidget spinners are modeled after the earth, right?
Really?! We can do fidget spinners, 160 of them in fact, but we cant put up simple MEH face pop sockets. I’m insulted, it’s like MEH has literally slapped me in the face.
@deathbynoodlez preach brother noodlez
@deathbynoodlez Mehbe velcro one (or two or three!) to your phone and call it a pop spinner.
The candy corn of 2018.
@evantribley Not until they melt into one giant block fidget spinner
@evantribley
And 2017.
so last week we paid 11 dollars for 40 (with the 5 dollar rebate coupon)…and this week you reduce the price to almost half?..and this seems right, why exactly?
What you should be doing is sending everyone who bought LED spinners an amount to equal this deal…
ESP since you were too lazy to even check the damn things and YOUR customers (including me) had to point out they did not work…
@fastharry you received less fidget spinners… trust me, you got the better deal.
@fastharry at least you had a $5 coupon. Where would one acquire such a thing? Do tell!
@katbyter they sent out an email to people that bought the LED ones
@fastharry It’s the gambling factor, will they arrive in time or not?
@fastharry

I handed out fidget spinners along with candy last Halloween. It was a hit.

@hutchnow
A. That was last year. Fad time passes quickly.
B. These LED ones are shit. Seriously. Read the topic for the last sale. MAYBE one per spinner lights at a reasonable brightness.
Too soon
…
Yous just sold them few days ago
@username doesn’t stop them selling tshirts every other day now. When I first saw this I thought it must be a T-shirt with a picture of 160 fidget spinner on it
@OnionSoup last t-shirt sale numbers took a huge nose dive…
I’d rather have replacement batteries for the first batch.
Or a switcheroo where I send the LED ones back, and get printed ones as a replacement.
@Hiz Me too! Those LED ones sucked. Huge disappointment.
Okay, but why more?
My favorite part is the meh button spinning and slowing down to a stop…just like a real fidget spinner!
@SkyyPunk Yep. How many waited for it to stop?
@blaineg @SkyyPunk I did…twice.
@blaineg @hutchnow @SkyyPunk three for me - i like the way it strobes against the monitor refresh rate and looks like it stops and changes direction. wow.
Can you guys just cut your losses and bury these in a New Mexico landfill?
Dave, next time dont answer the phone. Will save you from all the headache…

@tightwad oh it was 100% facetious but thanks for the offer.
the fidelity of those bluetooth spinner speakers just can’t be described in words…
@thismyusername @tightwad I may dig up my bluetooth spinners and throw them in the Halloween basket with the LED ones.
@thismyusername @tightwad Fidelity Smedelity… I was impressed with the fact that scratchy, worse than AM radio sound actually squawked out of them that was broadcast from my phone.

2 for $15, haha, yeah right. This is more of a 2 for $5 item
@FightingMongoos they sell them at the dollar store too.
The yellow ones are glow in the dark according to the label in the picture.

@speediedelivery I bought them last year for halloween at the new house… Only had 2 kids show up… Still have the box of fidget spinners sitting in the house… Maybe I’ll have better luck this halloween?
I bet even after this sale y’all will still have over a gross of boxes of these.
Will they get here in time for Halloween? That’s the question
@raptorgorawr why?
“We’re shipping these Ground (not Smart Post) so they should arrive by Halloween”
@unksol I read that as “should” or in other words “we hope”, or “maybe”.
Last year’s order didn’t even move out of the warehouse for several days. They did arrive on the afternoon of the 31st, but they missed the neighborhood kiddie party a few days earlier.

These would be awesome for Halloween if I hated my neighbors or their kids. But I’m pretty indifferent.
Good story, better meh face. Bravo!
I got zero of the glow-in-the-dark ones last time. And I was a sucker and got 160, including 80 of the allegedly lighting-up ones.
Don’t need. Problem solved.

@schmani I was debating filling the capsules with hot glue for weight so they would spin better but then it seemed like too much work.
@schmani Throw them away?
Life’s too short to spend it fixing garbage.
@blaineg @schmani I’d been debating whether to throw my tub out. Neither handing out broken shit for Halloween nor spending hours trying to fix these seem like better alternatives.
@sammydog01 Yes, that does sound like a lot of work. I’m looking for cheap rubber rings or something similar.
@blaineg Naw, I rather donate them or just give them to my nephews. I was just hoping to make them a little nicer.
@blaineg @zachdecker I’m looking for easy fixes or donate them somewhere, but why doesn’t anyone sell cheap rings for the prongs?
@blaineg @schmani @zachdecker EBay has them 3 for $1.50 or so but that’s still pretty expensive.
@bogie any ideas?
@sammydog01 @schmani I know nothing about these things, but how about taking one to the hardware store and seeing if a heavy duty washer would fit in it? Should be pretty cheap if it works.
@Barney @sammydog01 I’ll try that, not a bad idea.
@schmani Depending on their age, give the nephews a project?
Take one LED module apart and show them how the change the battery, and let them take over.

Can I hit the meh button twice for these? Meh^2? sigh
I you were selling single tubs I would use my led coupon to buy 40 printed spinners so I would have something to give out. But you aren’t so I’m not.
@sammydog01 we are selling single tubs. Each single tub comes with three free bonus tubs.
@shawn Yeah, but the 100% inflation over two weeks kind of kills the deal.

It is so very Meh that the coupon for my defective LED spinners expired before it arrived. It even expired before I place my original order. Perhaps it should have been August 2019, not 2018? Typo?
@HordeFather Did it give you an error when you were placing an order, or was there a typo in the email?
@HordeFather Sorry, but no - they got a close-out deal on coupons.
@HordeFather coupon code worked just fine for me
@HordeFather Maybe someone can clear this up for me, but does the coupon work on any order?..assuming it hasn’t already expired in the past? Or does it only apply to ANOTHER of fidget spinners offered today?
@goldnectar any order. Expires Aug 2019
@ThomasF Typo in the coupon. I haven’t tried using the coupon, yet.
@RiotDemon Thanks!
Came for the Meh button, stayed for the Meh button.
I bought these to hand out for Halloween. If my house gets egged I’m never trusting you people again!
Without owning a 711 store what the hell am I going to do with 160 spinners?
They have the Canadian flag and not the 'merican flag? Trump is sad.
Yeah, and what about the new Canadian flag?
There was a coupon for the last defective bunch? I got my bucket of barely functional spinners but never saw a coupon.
@barney0361 Check your email and maybe spam folder?
@sammydog01 Nothing there. What was it for?
