@haydesigner I don't typically do it, but I was anxiously waiting for the page to load (thanks a lot Meh) and someone just had to beat me to it. So meh.
@squilly I had the first comments for weeks on end, but then I just couldn't stay dedicated to it, especially once the Items started to get extra Meh. Reps to the first always!
@haydesigner it's true. Every time I see that insipid 'First!', I think, yeah, mass extinction is way overdue, and I go empty a can of Aquanet to the heavens and pray for global warming to hurry the fuck up.
@rrmcgrew the small competition by the most loyal of forum visitors who compete with prowess to be the very first person who is able to comment , elsewhere known as FIRST! 's
@VeeDubTDI That is good pricing. They clear out more inventory by selling 16 at once instead of 1. I only got 1 because I would use this once then forget about it.
@mwarren Easy. A "mechanic" works at pep boys or brakemasters, and probably has a highschool education. A "technician" usually works at a dealer or high end independent repair shop, and has a two year degree, as well as significant manufacturer training. My Porsche training was 8 hours a day for six months AFTER my two year degree.
@morganlogan Buy a bidet attachment. $25-$30 on Amazon, thirty minutes to install, and you'll wonder how you survived among the heathens for so long. Soggy handfuls of poop wipes will seem like.... well, like soggy handfuls of poop wipes.
@saodell Anything from Dollar Shave Club is a rip-off. You can buy the same damn blades from the company they buy them from for less. http://www.dorcousa.com/ As for the wipes, you can buy a multitude of wipes from numerous companies for half the price. Trust me, there's not one person in the world besides yourself that gives a fuck if your ass smells like peppermint.
@cinoclav I've never considered it before, but now that you mention it, I now REALLY want my ass to smell like peppermint. How awesome would that be? Let's make it happen!
@brainmist I still don't see how those can work. If I hose my truck off its still dirty. How can a stream of water clean anything without mechanical assistance?
@shabazz18 Sure, if you used an underpowered garden hose, your truck would still be dirty. But a bidet is not an underpowered garden hose. It's effectively a high pressure washer for your ahem undercarriage. And let me assure you, if you accidentally crank it to full blast, you will discover it has far more power than is needed for that purpose. DO NOT, for the love of all things holy, crank it to full blast. Unless you want to smell your poop from the inside, do not crank it to full blast.
I need a dirtier job to use these. Typing on my keyboard and occasionally refilling a coffee mug is not creating the optimal level of grime on the old hoofs.
I'll take them to Italy with me...in my backpack...probably good for the car too...oh and random cat vomiting events around here. Yeah...I bought 'em. Since I'm awake n all...n..whatnot...
Eh, I don't have a dirty job... or anything really that gets me messy... so let's just hope they work as well as Lysol wipes on various messes around the house. At $0.035 each, not bad.
traceable-worthwhile-suggestion... maybe I can wipe myself off the face of the earth!
I pay about the same per wipe for Huggies on Amazon. I find those useful more often than these. I am very tempted though. Gotta put my VMP to use somehow.
Seriously surprised at all the Meh-sayers, but to each his own -- we're vintage-loving people who take on all kinds of projects... and these rock for cleaning up furniture, old luggage, and dirty hands after playing Frank & tinkering around with our '76 Wagoneer. (Nevermind the messes left behind by 5 littles and the family dog!)
None of you do any of your own mechanical work? I'm always messing around with a lawn mower, boat, car, antique, or something that gets my hands all greased up. Hell yeah I'm in for a 16 pack, these will be awesome in my detached garage when I can't wash my hands at the hose or sink.
@belowi Good alternative. Problem is I don't always have Gojo around since I keep that near the slop sink in the house. These will definitely come in handy for their convenience.
@Stallion I hear you, I just got defenses up when you assumed no one else had any use for a good way to get grease and grime off when working with your hands. I was considering ordering these, but I usually have gojo or other pumice hand stuff wherever Im working but don't have access to water. If I had water I'd just use soap and I f I didn't have anything I'd use a rag and not worry about it, so ordering wipes I won't use doesn't make sense for me. Sound like these make sense for you so I hope you find them useful.
@getchusummeh@Saffer49 That's what I get for posting from a mobile at 12:15 E. I guess the rough side makes pants easier to remove... you guys buying that explanation?
What's with the 60 pack for $3.99 on Amazon? Obviously this is a better deal, but I'm having a hard time figuring out if this is one to stock up on or is it just average.
This is so meh I want to shoot myself! This has got to be the most boring offering yet. You at mediocre labs must be really hurting to offer this. Lame sauce x 10 to the hundredth.
I have been a VMP member. I got the free socks. I see a $5 renewal went though on Feb, 19. I never canceled anything. Now when I try to buy these wipes it says I am not a VMP member?! And when I go to my account it also says I am not VMP. What happened? I never canceled it.
Is this like a stupidity test? To see how many people are stupid enough to pay $2 for 18 wipes (.11 a wipe) instead of $10 for 288 wipes (3 cents a wipe)?
So disappointed in the image search for haggard-tolerable-monkey. Took many scrolls before even finding a monkey. He did look haggard and somewhat tolerable, though.
These things are great. I bought a couple of cases at Sam's Club but have no idea what the price was. They clean everything and have a tough towel that scrubs well. I have used them as body wipes, but would prefer something less scratchy on body parts other than my hands. Really, I highly recommend these.
I fish like a rabid...well, something rabid that fishes a lot. This was going to be my first Meh, but they don't ship to Alaska? I live in Anchorage, it's a city, airports and everything, but NOOOO. A***n sent me brake pads and rotors, for free. A meat smoker, for free. A bunch of heavy kitchen stuff, for free. All this month. I was happy to pay the shipping for this. I would have bought the 16, at least twice, and paid shipping twice. Oh well. I guess I can quit checking here every day, if I can't get any of it.
@whatevs I plan on giving some away as well... going to try stuffing them into those neoporene gadget cases I got suckered into buying on here a few months ago... maybe THAT will entice friends and relatives to take those damn things off my hands without me paying them cash.
Ok, bought for stocking stuffers -- they should arrive by Christmas and if you all post they are awful, I will just use them around the house and ditch the present idea.
@mikibell Another unique idea on Meh today.... I am impressed. I always thought that if they were awful, you gave them away as presents... and if they were good, you ditched that idea and kept them.
@discmaster if they were for the sister-in-laws, I would agree with that idea, but these would be for the brother-in-laws and they are mostly nice people.
I buy a similar package at my local dollar store. Sure my price might be .05 per wipe, but generally a package lasts a while and I am only spending a dollar at a time.
bumpy-buff-wizard meh-button streak broken! I'm not quite a germophobe (like i'd admit it, tho') but things like touching a gas pump nozzle kinda disgust me, and wipes live in my truck door pocket. I'm calling this a score, 'specially with the rare 5-star Amazon rating? The rest of you meh-sayers might have yuckier hands than you think... and steering wheel, and radio buttons, and door handles, and... and...
@Otis_T_Slim I prefer to state that I am simply keeping my immune system exercised every day. Important stuff gets a hand wash (bathroom, cooking, eating, cat litter box, visibly dirty). Did you see the article about the new ATM glass that is supposed to make those less germ-friendly?
@Pamtha@cinoclav Unless they start making self-cleaning ATMs like the public toilet booths in the Bay Area (kinda cool, btw) those are one of my examples. Card swiping meh-chine buttons? Do those EVER get cleaned? ugh... (shiver)
@Pamtha interesting! I especially like the idea of the dispensed (dirty, filthy!) cash also being disinfected via built-in UV/irradiation. Part of why I always use a card for purchases, besides the other obvious benefits... Except when your info gets hacked! Can't win. Lol
@cinoclav@Pamtha Well, I didn't get the reference, either, and I'm still not sure how glass would factor into that activity, now that I know what "ATM" can stand for...
And you want to talk gross? (sorry for you eating...) I used to manage a computer lab, and I remember being in the men's lav. and having a guy next to me at the urinal turn and walk straight out to the computers. Yuk! [Yes, I suppose I should have chased them right to the workstation and called them out, Grime Boss in hand!]
@Circuitbrkr I used to keep a mental list of people not to shake hands with at my company. There are dudes who come out of the stall without washing up too...
I'm curious, on these did you set the order system up in some way to dynamically adjust the number of cases available as individual packs were ordered, or did you have a preset number available for purchase in each category?
@jqubed Currently the latter. Someday hopefully we'll be able to dynamically pull two options from the same inventory, but right now it is a lot easier to just allocate some to individual packs and the rest to 16-packs
@Moose You know what would be a great way to test that when you guys get it working? Another sale like you had on the Built NY... :) Only sell out the larger pack when there isn't enough physical inventory? :) I have a great idea... Magic cards... 1 case = 6 Boxes, 1 box = 36 packs... Don't go as far as to card... that'd be really terrible..
@Moose@sohmageek It is these apparently easy tasks that break stuff in surprising ways. Test it with something that won't sell fast and in small quantity, so there can't be a large quantity of upset customers if things go terribly wrong.
@hamjudo@moose Like Magic cards? :) Or they could always ask some of the loyal customers to beta test something for them... they could even "sell" something for $0 or $1 letting us know that it won't ship, I'd give meh $1 to test something with nothing coming back to me. Well... I may want Irk to do my son a favor... or something :P
Got mine today. First box was pristine however the other box was pretty fucked up. Pretty sure @JonT threw it down a few flights of stairs. Retail box was destroyed but it appears the actual packages are in good shape.
@hamjudo@studerc Well.. the retail box looked GREAT, but the inside had goo in it the goo from the wipes like one of the bags exploded. yet all the bags were sealed and good! so Thank you @JonT for the great wipes with extra goo for good measure!
Okay, so I bought a bunch of these things, simply because I have a weakness for wet ones and things of that ilk. Got them last week sometime, 2 cases. I’ve been passing them out to anyone who visits. Today I was working in the yard and I got that dreaded pine tar on my hands. I HATE THAT! But these things took it right off. Way ta go Meh! (And me.) 🐞
Hey, I'm a plumber and these wipes have been kicking ass ever since I bought 'em off ya. Any chance of these babies going back on sale? Next time I'm gonna buy like 10 orders and just stock up. Best wipes we've used, and at a price that was unreal. Thanks meh!
@Tankshock I use these to clean my stove and my bike and they kick ass at both. luckily I still have a strong supply, but I wish you fortune in procuring all the goods.
@cinoclavhttp://tools.woot.com/?ref=gh_tg_5 amen. I came to this forum today just to update on it. You beat me to it! Shame on woot... shame indeed. I am not mad, just disappointed.

@squilly lols, first on your first. Meh!
@squilly… No one likes a 'first' anyway. NO ONE.
@squilly this is known as first fail. where is @unixrab??

@squilly I had the first comments for weeks on end, but then I just couldn't stay dedicated to it, especially once the Items started to get extra Meh. Reps to the first always!

@rrmcgrew the small competition by the most loyal of forum visitors who compete with prowess to be the very first person who is able to comment , elsewhere known as FIRST! 's
Your mediocre clocks are slow.
So... 1 for $2 or 16 for $10? Hmm...
@VeeDubTDI heh good ol' meh, did you see the built NY neoprene extravaganza pricing? ;)
@VeeDubTDI Actually cheaper for one @ Amazon - the price comparison is bs
@VeeDubTDI That is good pricing. They clear out more inventory by selling 16 at once instead of 1. I only got 1 because I would use this once then forget about it.
Ah wipes..... I'll need these, cause you gotta be shitting me...
@lichme If they were shitting you, THEY'D need the wipes, not you!
I'm sure there's an audience for this product… but probably not here.
@haydesigner a) Selling well. b)I and at least one other person on here are Auto Technicians by trade.
@givemeyoursoul i am not sure if these wipes would get off the same amount the pumice soap does haha. Damn grease from grease fittings...
@ThoR294 You must work on old cars or big trucks. I haven't SEEN a grease fitting in years.
@givemeyoursoul What's the difference between an "Auto Technician" and a "Mechanic"? Is it similar to "Flight Attendant" versus "Steward(ess)"?
@mwarren Easy. A "mechanic" works at pep boys or brakemasters, and probably has a highschool education. A "technician" usually works at a dealer or high end independent repair shop, and has a two year degree, as well as significant manufacturer training. My Porsche training was 8 hours a day for six months AFTER my two year degree.
Rather have wet wipes for my butt.
@morganlogan just don't flush these things http://www.businessinsider.com/nycs-sewers-have-a-flushable-wipe-problem-2015-3
@morganlogan One Wipe Charlies from Dollar Shave Club
@morganlogan Buy a bidet attachment. $25-$30 on Amazon, thirty minutes to install, and you'll wonder how you survived among the heathens for so long. Soggy handfuls of poop wipes will seem like.... well, like soggy handfuls of poop wipes.
@saodell Anything from Dollar Shave Club is a rip-off.

@cinoclav Actually there is that special someone who does care ;-)
@cinoclav I've never considered it before, but now that you mention it, I now REALLY want my ass to smell like peppermint. How awesome would that be? Let's make it happen!
@brainmist I still don't see how those can work. If I hose my truck off its still dirty. How can a stream of water clean anything without mechanical assistance?
@cinoclav I couldn't help but notice that those razors are cheaper from dollar shave club... $3 per pack at DSC vs $3.83 there.
@shabazz18 Sure, if you used an underpowered garden hose, your truck would still be dirty. But a bidet is not an underpowered garden hose. It's effectively a high pressure washer for your ahem undercarriage. And let me assure you, if you accidentally crank it to full blast, you will discover it has far more power than is needed for that purpose. DO NOT, for the love of all things holy, crank it to full blast. Unless you want to smell your poop from the inside, do not crank it to full blast.
Like CRIME BOSS LOL.. There's even a handprint on the package!
Get it?!
Because criminals are always cleaning stuff!
Meh. I'll try them :)
aww man. i thought i was buying a Crime Boss at first
@labellyy maybe another time... eh
@labellyy lol I read it that way at first too.. Still not totally sure what the connection between crime and cleanliness is.. but I like it.
@Chops cleanliness is godliness, and godliness is Al Caponiness....
I need a dirtier job to use these. Typing on my keyboard and occasionally refilling a coffee mug is not creating the optimal level of grime on the old hoofs.
@lumber5607 hooves? hoofseses? hoofi?
Scanned description, read "Dorito flavored miracle", double-checked, disappointed.
@clayboy How freakin' awesome would it be if we could just buy pounds and pounds of Dorito flavor powder?
Too bad I no longer work in the warehouse anymore. I could have used these back then.
I'll take them to Italy with me...in my backpack...probably good for the car too...oh and random cat vomiting events around here. Yeah...I bought 'em. Since I'm awake n all...n..whatnot...
One isn't enough, 16 is too many ... think I'll order 5 ...
@saodell That's the spirit!
These are not the wipes you're looking for
I work in an auto shop so these might actually be useful. In for the 16 pack.
Eh, I don't have a dirty job... or anything really that gets me messy... so let's just hope they work as well as Lysol wipes on various messes around the house. At $0.035 each, not bad.
traceable-worthwhile-suggestion... maybe I can wipe myself off the face of the earth!
I pay about the same per wipe for Huggies on Amazon. I find those useful more often than these. I am very tempted though. Gotta put my VMP to use somehow.
@shortman Don't say things like that. @unixrab will come howling out of the wings.
@givemeyoursoul ... it just proves the point. no howling necessary. ....
but ...
long live the bait
I'm in for 32 (and contemplating more) -- thanks, Meh... rocks finding a great deal on something we already use & love! :)
Seriously surprised at all the Meh-sayers, but to each his own -- we're vintage-loving people who take on all kinds of projects... and these rock for cleaning up furniture, old luggage, and dirty hands after playing Frank & tinkering around with our '76 Wagoneer. (Nevermind the messes left behind by 5 littles and the family dog!)
@modmamajama ... You mean these things clean dog paws? Rover barked, "Gimme Two!!.. Cat said,
@unkabob Hehe -- love it... thanks for this! :D
@modmamajama ... I luv cats..
My old VW would laugh at these.

None of you do any of your own mechanical work? I'm always messing around with a lawn mower, boat, car, antique, or something that gets my hands all greased up. Hell yeah I'm in for a 16 pack, these will be awesome in my detached garage when I can't wash my hands at the hose or sink.
@Stallion gojo + roll of paper towels = problem solved.
@belowi Good alternative. Problem is I don't always have Gojo around since I keep that near the slop sink in the house. These will definitely come in handy for their convenience.
@Stallion I hear you, I just got defenses up when you assumed no one else had any use for a good way to get grease and grime off when working with your hands.

Sound like these make sense for you so I hope you find them useful.
Damn you meh. 1 too few 16 too many. But at that price, in for 16. Should be good for Krazy Glue, Brake Dust, grease and Pant removal.
@readnj uhhhhhhh......PANT removal? LOL! :-D
@readnj MEH is a strictly no pants party.
@getchusummeh @Saffer49 That's what I get for posting from a mobile at 12:15 E. I guess the rough side makes pants easier to remove... you guys buying that explanation?
I pay about $0.057 ea. for wet ones in a tub. The case price here gets these for about $0.035 ea. with VMP of course. Sure, why not.
Don't jump on me for slut shaming, but the package does state that they easily remove fish odors, but doesn't specify from what.
@eyewerks I suppose they could be used for cleaning adult toys.
What's with the 60 pack for $3.99 on Amazon? Obviously this is a better deal, but I'm having a hard time figuring out if this is one to stock up on or is it just average.
@Superjimtendo $3.99+$5.49 shipping......
It's a VMP buy. Meh?
unassuming-faded-barium
Text loaded before picture. Thought my dream of Meh supplied Doritos had come true. Heartbroken.
Safe to use as baby wipes? she doesn't have sensitive skin.. haha
This is so meh I want to shoot myself! This has got to be the most boring offering yet. You at mediocre labs must be really hurting to offer this. Lame sauce x 10 to the hundredth.
Meh.
But... wipes are always useful...
So...
unbearable-comfortable-space!
In for one dreary-important-bike pack of 16. Some for the boat, camping, cars, and epoxy-obsessed, green-thumbed grandmother.
I have been a VMP member. I got the free socks. I see a $5 renewal went though on Feb, 19. I never canceled anything.
Now when I try to buy these wipes it says I am not a VMP member?! And when I go to my account it also says I am not VMP.
What happened? I never canceled it.
@elpepe Check w/ support.
@elpepe You still have the VMP near your user name when you post....
@Stallion I just bought it again to buy these wipes. I already should have had it though.
@elpepe Hit up support, i'm sure they'll fix whatever issue is going on. You are still a VMP to me!
@elpepe Same situation here. I got socks, and have to buy VMP again without cancelling?!
@elpepe - I figured out my fail. My bank merged and changed my card number and I didn't update Meh. so I WAS due for renewal.
@elpepe did you forget to publicly thank Mediocre Labs for the socks?
Is this like a stupidity test? To see how many people are stupid enough to pay $2 for 18 wipes (.11 a wipe) instead of $10 for 288 wipes (3 cents a wipe)?
@tsfisch Or to see who saves $8 for something else.
@tsfisch 2/18 = .11. 10/288 = .0347. I want you to think long and hard about these numbers, tsfisch, and whether you've passed or failed such a test.
@MindlessMachina what'sya point? I said the same numbers (11 cents vs 3 cents)
@tsfisch $2 just to get something in the mail, vs $10 just to get something in the mail.
Meh. Got no spare $$, €€, ££, ¥¥, or ₩₩ for this one. Next time.
psychotic-rejoicing-income
hmm...
@Perkalicious That's a nice story.
@Perkalicious ...........and then meh.com hired them?
long-attractive-tomato
@Collin1000 Neighbor's pumpkin got loose, and the next thing you know, boom. Had its way with all my tomato vines.
@Collin1000 those are very interesting rather abstract looking slices
@Collin1000 Real Cool!
@Collin1000 Not terribly long, but it is a rather attractive tomato!
So disappointed in the image search for haggard-tolerable-monkey. Took many scrolls before even finding a monkey. He did look haggard and somewhat tolerable, though.
some for the earthquake/emergency/bug-out bags. some in the car boot, jumped a friends car, had hands full of grime and wet wipes just made wet grime.
then there’s the Dortios NOT… Doritos leave your fingers clean compared to a bag of Flamin Hot CRUNCHY Cheetos
Would these make good baby wipes?
It's my brother's kid and he's a pain anyway.
In other Boss-related news:
these recent products are hideous. Shame on you meh.com
These things are great. I bought a couple of cases at Sam's Club but have no idea what the price was. They clean everything and have a tough towel that scrubs well. I have used them as body wipes, but would prefer something less scratchy on body parts other than my hands. Really, I highly recommend these.
I would have gone with "Mehthinks these wet wipes doth protest too much."
Piss on that cat! I'm in for two..
... royal-sloppy-dove...
Can I wipe my *ss with these?
@misobrilliant not sure about your s's but they will clean your ass if you need them too
Why not give it a try...
informally-primo-tiger
I wipe my *ss with all of the stuff I buy from this website
@misobrilliant Wiping your ass with steak knives is pretty hardcore. In guessing you'll only do it once.....
@givemeyoursoul that immersion blender stick would be pretty exciting, I'd think.
@misobrilliant Very original... some people 'put that shit on everything..' but you have chosen to do just the opposite.
unpleasant-independent-hospital
I will use them to clean up the blood.
I fish like a rabid...well, something rabid that fishes a lot. This was going to be my first Meh, but they don't ship to Alaska? I live in Anchorage, it's a city, airports and everything, but NOOOO. A***n sent me brake pads and rotors, for free. A meat smoker, for free. A bunch of heavy kitchen stuff, for free. All this month. I was happy to pay the shipping for this. I would have bought the 16, at least twice, and paid shipping twice. Oh well. I guess I can quit checking here every day, if I can't get any of it.
@Rumple Something went terribly wrong when I tried to place my order, is this happening for everyone?
@RedHot My understanding-talkative-beef went through just fine a minute ago.
@RedHot Influential-Slow-Sage went through for me just fine about 15 min ago.
I can't believe I just bought something 2 days in a row. I guess I can stick them with my apocalypse stash.
In for 2 boxes, these will come in handy for the race team/pit crews and doing any of our other 'un-green' off road sporting activities and camping.
@Jolara - Yes! Same here. I just ordered a box to keep laying around at in the trucks, shop and assorted places at the track!
In for the big box. I guess I'm glad they come in small packages so I can give some away.
ageless-gargantuan-industry
@whatevs I plan on giving some away as well... going to try stuffing them into those neoporene gadget cases I got suckered into buying on here a few months ago... maybe THAT will entice friends and relatives to take those damn things off my hands without me paying them cash.
This was not on her resume: warped-ticklish-secretary
Ok, bought for stocking stuffers -- they should arrive by Christmas and if you all post they are awful, I will just use them around the house and ditch the present idea.
@mikibell Another unique idea on Meh today.... I am impressed. I always thought that if they were awful, you gave them away as presents... and if they were good, you ditched that idea and kept them.
@discmaster if they were for the sister-in-laws, I would agree with that idea, but these would be for the brother-in-laws and they are mostly nice people.
Could I use these wipes to clean other surfaces like a countertop? Basically, where should I NOT use these wipes?
@JT954 I'd think they'd be all streaky. Lots of "not intended for shiny things" wipes leave residue.
I buy a similar package at my local dollar store. Sure my price might be .05 per wipe, but generally a package lasts a while and I am only spending a dollar at a time.
bumpy-buff-wizard meh-button streak broken! I'm not quite a germophobe (like i'd admit it, tho') but things like touching a gas pump nozzle kinda disgust me, and wipes live in my truck door pocket. I'm calling this a score, 'specially with the rare 5-star Amazon rating?

Did somebody not like the "Crime Boss"-take on these?
It looks like all "Crime Boss" related comments have been.. whacked.
@Chops They're still up there.
OK, so I've got kids. I caved.

(Am I the only one who had to look up "obdurate?")
@bakerzdosen my mom uses words like that to describe me all the time!
these are best hand wipes you can get for the garage, period
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JFHMPM/
you can find em cheaper probably but buddy who works on oil rig had some in his truck and gave them to me and its all i use now
Having used these before, they may not be the best wipes but they are awesome and even more so at this price, in for 48 packs.
As so often is the case, my order identifier;
"unclean-maximum-parent"
seems so applicable for these to me....
And you want to talk gross? (sorry for you eating...) I used to manage a computer lab, and I remember being in the men's lav. and having a guy next to me at the urinal turn and walk straight out to the computers. Yuk! [Yes, I suppose I should have chased them right to the workstation and called them out, Grime Boss in hand!]
@Circuitbrkr I used to keep a mental list of people not to shake hands with at my company. There are dudes who come out of the stall without washing up too...
I'm curious, on these did you set the order system up in some way to dynamically adjust the number of cases available as individual packs were ordered, or did you have a preset number available for purchase in each category?
@jqubed Currently the latter. Someday hopefully we'll be able to dynamically pull two options from the same inventory, but right now it is a lot easier to just allocate some to individual packs and the rest to 16-packs
@Moose You know what would be a great way to test that when you guys get it working? Another sale like you had on the Built NY... :) Only sell out the larger pack when there isn't enough physical inventory? :) I have a great idea... Magic cards... 1 case = 6 Boxes, 1 box = 36 packs... Don't go as far as to card... that'd be really terrible..
@Moose @sohmageek It is these apparently easy tasks that break stuff in surprising ways. Test it with something that won't sell fast and in small quantity, so there can't be a large quantity of upset customers if things go terribly wrong.
@hamjudo @moose Like Magic cards? :) Or they could always ask some of the loyal customers to beta test something for them... they could even "sell" something for $0 or $1 letting us know that it won't ship, I'd give meh $1 to test something with nothing coming back to me. Well... I may want Irk to do my son a favor... or something :P
Got mine today. First box was pristine however the other box was pretty fucked up. Pretty sure @JonT threw it down a few flights of stairs. Retail box was destroyed but it appears the actual packages are in good shape.
@studerc Mine were in good shape. @JonT must like me.
@hamjudo @studerc Well.. the retail box looked GREAT, but the inside had goo in it the goo from the wipes like one of the bags exploded. yet all the bags were sealed and good! so Thank you @JonT for the great wipes with extra goo for good measure!
@sohmageek enjoy your goo!
these arrived the other day. currently I've just used one to clean up the stove top and it performed great.
@Lotsofgoats I just did the same thing at about the same time! Our minds must be in sync.
back again to say that the scrubby side of these are REALLY SCRUBBY OH GOD MY HANDS so make sure you sort the sides out before going at it
also I don't buy that these smell like "fresh citrus" but they're a nice kinda clean smell so that works for me
@Lotsofgoats Thanks for the warning.
@Lotsofgoats So you're warning me not to use these as diaper wipes if these are more convenient to grab? GOOD warning!
Okay, so I bought a bunch of these things, simply because I have a weakness for wet ones and things of that ilk. Got them last week sometime, 2 cases. I’ve been passing them out to anyone who visits. Today I was working in the yard and I got that dreaded pine tar on my hands. I HATE THAT! But these things took it right off. Way ta go Meh! (And me.) 🐞
I certainly hope Meh brings these back... I also passed them out.. at the office... and they're a hit.
I tried to clean my Johnson with these but ended up with chemical burns and blisters, can I get a refund?
@jjohns71 You used the rough side! The packaging CLEARLY stated use the soft side for skin, rough side for tough stains.
@dashcloud Maybe he got some tough stains on his johnson. Then again, maybe he's misdiagnosing the source of the burns & blisters.
Hey, I'm a plumber and these wipes have been kicking ass ever since I bought 'em off ya. Any chance of these babies going back on sale? Next time I'm gonna buy like 10 orders and just stock up. Best wipes we've used, and at a price that was unreal. Thanks meh!
@Tankshock Disclaimer: These wipes not for use on ass.
@Tankshock I use these to clean my stove and my bike and they kick ass at both. luckily I still have a strong supply, but I wish you fortune in procuring all the goods.
@Tankshock Well, you could pay 2 1/2 times the price at Woot today. Just saw they're selling a box for $25.
Hard to believe how bad Woot sucks now.
@cinoclav http://tools.woot.com/?ref=gh_tg_5 amen. I came to this forum today just to update on it. You beat me to it! Shame on woot... shame indeed. I am not mad, just disappointed.
@connorbush I left disappointment behind and settled on mad.
