@todaresq I wondered if anyone was keeping track-thanks for the info, but based on that amount for 12 hours, we are looking at well over 3,000 before this ends tonight. The only thing worse than crap is diluted crap or as it is commonly know as diarrhea. Don’t think I want that.
After a very, very long dry spell I am ecstatic to say I finally got one. I think the last one I managed to snag was Fuku 2. Very happy to finally get to take part in one again. Thank you, Meh! I may not be all that active on the boards anymore but I still love you.
/giphy spotty-unadorned-pony
One of my fears is that while trying to get a Fukobukuro, there’s gonna be one worth $1,000 mixed in and we’ll all just click purchase without even looking at the item info.
@narfcake@Nest Yeah, that was me. I didn’t have the million to cover the sale, so Woot took over my house and moved a bunch of aliens in. Then they opened up a site called mars.woot and sold my toilet paper to a rich Gale Crater family for 3 trillion. Woot still wouldn’t give me my house back, but they did send this lovely leak frog…
@miskreeta Yes I liked the pine cones too. I wonder if which one we got affects what we get inside our box. If that is the case I am screwed as mine was gross- the one with worms or whatever they were.
@miskreeta Too bad I don’t live where I used to. I could send you a 90 gallon bag full (try raking and mowing the yard around all of that). They would have been the big kind.
@Kidsandliz I’ll trade you for a gazillion bags of leaves of various shapes and sizes. Hopefully you will have a use for your worm bag where you live. Maybe for gardening or fishing?
Pretty sure this was one major April Fools prank - made it to the checkout so many times only to get to the captcha and get told that they didn’t know which item I was ordering or that they were sold out. Call me a fool and thanks for ruining my day.
@crow@PlacidPenguin It turns out I was -precisely- whelmed. My wife organized everything away before I could retrieve my phone and image the occasion, but I got:
1x black-and-white geometric pattern pillow case (claimed by wife)
3x pillowcase cardboard package sleeves for above pillow case (claimed by recycling)
2x magnetic lens kits for mobile phones (claimed by both of us)
1x Bluetooth speaker/powerbank/audio bridge (claimed by me but likely to vanish with a “oh but I thought you weren’t using it”
1x Universal GPS dash mount dating from the time of Haral Bluetooth, exactly the kind you see in old people’s cars who don’t truck with that other mounting tech nonsense (with exceptionally yellowed and brittle plastic case to match) (claimed by the pile destined for the Habitat for Humanity store)
1x Meh Fukobukuro bag (claimed by our pile of reusable shopping bags)
1x disappointment and regret combo pack, with a coupon for one free try next time like the sucker I am. (DIBBS)

My first…
/giphy jinxed-austere-moose
And now timer has changed to an hour…ouch
Refresh, buy, captcha, SOLD OUT, WHAT
I didn’t even try this one.
FUCK!
On the positive side, I’m increasing the fuck count here with every passing offering. That’s good for something, at least.
@narfcake and this one had like 99 or something. At least now you can take an hour break.
@Kidsandliz Yep, hence the expletive. This was probably gave a much better chance. And I blew it.
Ah well. Time for food.
Yes! Finally got one!
I give up.
@OrigGadgetLady you can do it!..
/giphy victory
Victory!!!
FINALLY GOT ONE!!! IM CONVINCED IT’S NOT AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE
@kyliemurphy They already charged my credit card for the $ 5 so if they took my $ 5 and didn’t give me any crap then the joke really is on me.
Just got one. I don’t know that I’ve ever wept so hard. Tears of meh.
/giphy spotty-bushy-fang
100 this round + 1791 total before = 1891

Got one THANK YOU
How do these things sell out do fast?

@Nest Woot did one that was $1,000,000 several years back. There was a coupon code for $999,997 off, but some didn’t use the coupon …
@narfcake @Nest Yeah, that was me. I didn’t have the million to cover the sale, so Woot took over my house and moved a bunch of aliens in.

YAY! Pinecones!

@Kidsandliz I’m hoping for a bag full of actual pinecones. I’ll throw them out in the yard to confuse all the squirrels.

Still shocked I got one. Never managed to be quick enough before, here or on Woot.
i dont care anymore
good by
@flagman2 You aren’t even staying long enough to finish the “bye”?
didn’t get one
again
last one I got was April 1st, 2015.
passionate-fabled-rat! sweeeeet.
REFRESH THE PAGE YOURSELF
rich-awesome-motion
Ok - who’s pulled an all nighter and still hasn’t got one?
@norman8 Probably a bunch of people still posting… those who got them likely mostly vanished.
Praise the Lord I haven’t won any of these turkeys yet!
@BigMarty45s There is an easy way to keep up your losing streak - don’t even try to get one. Just sayin’

Last bag of crap I bought was April 1, 2009!
/giphy unassuming-delirious-fire
Yeah, kind of amazed I got one. First Fuko.
/giphy haphazard-unguarded-pan
i got one! I have no idea how any of this works, or what to expect, since my last experiences were pre-Amazon Woot…
/giphy sedentary-innate-cattle
@Bundalo Keep your expectations extremely low and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
@sammydog01 So, exactly like the Woot BoC, good to know.
@Bundalo If you’re looking for something like a BOC your expectations are still too high. Try to work on that.
@sammydog01 wow, based on my last two BoCs, I’m really not sure that’s possible.
@Bundalo
Don’t worry. It is.

@eq52515
This was my first, is this typical?
@eq52515 No, not typical. Too damn good. And you should put it in the reveal thread so the rest of us can feel cheated.
