I got this one, after trying and failing all week due to their alleged server issues. I expect this one to be as crappy as usual, or worse because it’s April 1st.
I love OMG, I was able to get 1, 2, 3, and 4. 1, 3, and 4 were delivered today. My BOC that I got from leftover is being delivered tomorrow. They are winning me over.
@lisagd I can’t win them for anything during the Woot-off, I wait for the left over section and they will usually post a couple afterwards. I can’t get them a lot of times, usually only during after event stuff.
@lisagd@sunnysideup22 The ones in leftovers were available for a pretty long time. I have no chance at anything with a notification. Your OMG haul is impressive- the only thing I got through to payment on was the PS5 and I wasn’t going to buy it.
Sometimes I try to buy stuff just to mess up their servers.
/giphy evil laugh
I saw you guys over there. I’m incognito , or I was! Lol On WOOT I’m Turtlegurlygirl. I finally got a BOC on Saturday, Friday was a bust! I’m excited to see what I get on Wednesday, the last one was great!
I got one yesterday but then after I paid and it went through it came back and said cancelled. I don’t know why? I’ve never had it do that before. Pissed me off.
@cbilyak@sammydog01
Oh I’m sure it’s canceled and not coming. I’m not even expecting a reply now that I saw that. I’ll just try for another one. I guess I just skip over the important fine print lol
The Bag of Coins from 3/30 I snagged then they canceled, I was pissed. Then I got a Beef or Chicken yesterday, so I guess all is well in the world now.
@pakopako it depends. During Woot-offs the website has them. Sometimes they have them as app exclusives so it is only available thru the app. Usually if linked thru social media both ways work. I rarely score one, but i try A LOT.
Oddly enough, my April Fools’ Day BOC was delivered on Easter Sunday. I feel bad for the person who wasted their time delivering it on what should have been their day off. I’ve gotten many BOCs over the years that have yielded absolutely nothing useful, and this was no exception. This was probably the oddest box of crap received to date. I think someone went dumpster-diving at Dollar Tree. I’d be embarrassed to bring this to Goodwill:
• Blue leather mouse mat
• Bag of mini foam artificial tan roses
• Box of 100 disposable forks made from plants
• Giant 15” yellow plastic scissors
• 4 crystal drawer knobs
• Crushed stainless steel cup

• Large 6-day pill organizer
• Package of cheesecloth
• Box of 15 quart size storage bags
• White iPhone 11 case
• Pack of 4 jumbo erasers
• Package of fingernail stickers
• Strip of 6 tiny white buttons
• Blue magic marker
• Small box of metal bolts
• Aux cord for iPhone and headphone
• 2-pack lightning 2 in 1 audio adapters
• Pack of bonsai lotus seeds
• Embroidered American flag patch
• Calsorb canine calcium supplement syringe
• Four 7mm stubby combination ratcheting wrenches
• Small package of 5 unidentifiable things
• Burgundy Woot! crap bag
Mine arrived yesterday, was pleased with mine.
2 quite nice, high quality luggage tags
Box of 200 latex gloves

2 pack of matching bracelets

30 pack compostable cutlery

Pirate treasure map mug
Crap bag w/quote from Abe Lincoln
All gone.
@lisaviolet Did you have any luck in the OMG sale yesterday? As usual, I got nothing.
@lisagd No, I pretty much just went about life as usual. Organizing stamps and dies.
The BOC came up on my FB page 3 minutes after it was put online. Just pure luck that I saw it when I did.
@lisaviolet At least one Lisa got lucky yesterday.
@lisagd and that’s all it was, was luck.

@sunnysideup22 Quit bragging. I don’t know why I even bother trying.

@sammydog01 Thank you for doing your part to keep all the server hamsters fully employed.
I saw you guys over there. I’m incognito , or I was! Lol On WOOT I’m Turtlegurlygirl. I finally got a BOC on Saturday, Friday was a bust! I’m excited to see what I get on Wednesday, the last one was great!
@Lynnerizer Congratulations!
Turtlegurlygirl, huh?
I got one yesterday but then after I paid and it went through it came back and said cancelled. I don’t know why? I’ve never had it do that before. Pissed me off.
@Star2236 I had it happen too, I have also had it happen on other items in high demand…if it happens much more i may uninstall the app.
@cbilyak
I emailed them but I haven’t heard back.
@cbilyak @Star2236
@cbilyak @sammydog01
I’ve been on woot since it started, I’ve never seen that page lol
@Star2236 good luck! Doubt anything will come of it but good luck anyway.
@cbilyak @Star2236 It’s at the top of every crap product thread and every crap reveal thread.

@cbilyak do these still show up on the main page any more, or is it all app centered?
@pakopako it depends. During Woot-offs the website has them. Sometimes they have them as app exclusives so it is only available thru the app. Usually if linked thru social media both ways work. I rarely score one, but i try A LOT.
@cbilyak yeah, a lot of people try! The last woot off crashed the site a lot and BoC’s had to stop.
@cbilyak @pakopako Wooters were definitely load testing the servers.

@heartny Or they were moving and threw in stuff they rooted out of their cupboards as they were packing!

@cbilyak I love that Abe Lincoln bag!
@mossygreen me TOO!!
@cbilyak @mossygreen
What’s the quote?
@Kyeh @mossygreen I’m sure it’s not the one that says “I hate theater.”
@Kyeh @mossygreen @werehatrack nope, it’s “I buy all my Crap on Woot!”
