Not a bad irk, still not sure about this monthly deal though.
I’ll take it.
Black Irk Bag
Purple Primula Insulated Mug (@Barney)- will use
InstaCharge 5000mah battery - nice and small to carry
Asobu coffee cup, looks pretty, weird handle
Hotel New York Queen sheets. nice queen for guest bed but reviews from previous sale are not great, TBD.
@raccoon81@zachhh that ottoman is usually the closest thing to where I open the packages.
Next time I will start experimenting. As long as it’s not wood. Check.
My Google Photos discover this day in history notification just popped up. It’s an IRK from 2016 with my neato botvac in it. But it’s on my wood floor so I’ll keep it safely away.
Got mine today. Box wasn’t too heavy so I didn’t expect much but was pleasantly surprised. Most of it I can use (all except the women’s socks ). Here’s what I received:
Altigo Wireless Active Noise Canceling Headphones
Bytech True Wireless Earbuds
Euro Sock Women’s Tennis Socks - Size L
T-Shirt w/ Sleeping Cat - French quote translates to
“This Is Not A Cat In The Hat”
@IndifferentDude@jchizmar@Lister same same same. The earbuds seem pretty cheap, sound quality is awful, but they are small enough that I may find some use for them. The over ear headphones are actually pretty decent for the price. The sound quality is alright; better with noise canceling off. They are fairly comfortable. If I was going to use them I’d probably throw some tape on them to reinforce the weak points that the reviews complain about breaking. I have much nicer anc bluetooth headphones, so I doubt I’ll bother. The shirt (mediocre flask) is way too small for me. The socks are, well, meh.
@carl669 I got almost the identical irk. My throw was woven yarn, not all that soft, but also brown. The rest is exactly the same. My irk bag is visible.
-A broken porcelain mug in multiple pieces. I could hear it’s fragments as I picked up the box. Pretty lame.
-A Mahli Weighted Neck Wrap & Eye Mask Arometherapy Kit. Say it’s not recommended for sleeping, which is when I’d probably want to use it the most. Still useful though!
-Kenneth Jay Lane Faux Black Gem Necklace. Don’t imagine getting a lot of use out of this one.
-8-Piece Solar LED Butterfly Lights. Hard to see a use out of it in an apartment setting, but we’ll see.
Overall, kind of a disappointment but that’s mostly because of the porcelain mug.
@xedrothi I am mustachioed. I was short shorn, but with this COVID thing I have not been to Great Clips since Christmas. I am certainly Steve and anticipating my June IRK!
@Star2236 I have a blue inside white outside one that just came if you want another (looks like all the other ones people have gotten). In box and unbroken (so far anyway LOL).
Black IRK bag-always useful.
Monster Screen Clean for Laptops -Useful.
Kate Spade Julieanna sunglasses w/case – you can’t see them against the black but they’re wayfarer style. I’ll wear them.
CobaltX Alloy Wireless earbuds. White/pink -Currently charging. Hopefully they work reasonably well, I broke my earbuds last week.
Two Fraas Wool men’s scarves. Price tags say $52 – Really nice. Soft! Will make nice presents.
Got my IRK! It’s exactly the same as one posted above, but here it is anyway:
Most happy about the mug, because I got a purple one a couple months ago, and it’s a great mug! Also my second meh massager, and a coding kit that my kids can get into in a year or two.
Got mine! Pretty much what others got. Also got a casemates shirt with a “K” on it. I’m guessing that’s a Kickstarter edition. Sadly, it’s a 4XL, which is about 3 Xs too big. maybe my wife will want it as a sleep shirt.
@MrMikenIkes I’m in the same boat as you are! My June IRK was “Accepted at [local] USPS destination facility” two days ago, and then arrived (two days in a row!) at a post office across the state. meanwhile July IRK currently inbound via FedEx/Smartpost with a saturday ETA, so I’m putting my money on the latter arriving first.
Mine showed up this morning at like 8am. Guess USPS is trying to beat the heat.
IRK bag
A full sheet set in a soothing light green
5000mAh battery pack in a “gift box” - I really need to start giving these away, I feel like I get one in every IRK. I remember a few years back at a conference being so glad to get one of the ones that looked like a large lip stick. Oh how things have changed!
6-port USB charging hub. We’ll see how heavy it is, it might go in my work bag for handy “on location” stuff
JUKU LED Lightshow Coding Kit. Neat, education is important, now I just need to find a kid to throw it at, my nephew’s a bit young for this kind of thing.
All in all, not a bad haul, I love getting random electronic bits and bobs
I got mine shipped to my parents house because I was in the process of moving. They did not take a picture, but I got:
An IRK bag
A pair of women’s socks
A pair of off brand air pods
An XXL Meh shirt
A Samsung gear VR! (For an s6)
Mine was shipped a week ago but I don’t think I’ll be getting it for awhile since it’s going through Pitney Bowes and has been stuck at their center for days.
Well, I can at least see what gif my order number brings me.
A very nice IRK arrived yesterday!
Black IRK bag for the collection
Kenneth Jay Lane chunky necklace
Laura Ashley watch
Laptop screen cleaner
TaC brew 3 piece tea-brewer
Everything looks new!
Not Meh. Thanks Meh!
1 pack of 10 single compartment plastic meal prep containers
1 pair of EURO CoolMax tennis socks, ladies size 10-12
1 pair of BYTECH super-cheap airpod knock-offs (new)
1 XXL meh shirt
1 black IRK bag
The shirt is the one with the green meh text and the Kickstarter logo that was sent to those of us who backed the original Kickstarter way back in 2014. How did they even still have any of these left lying around?!?
IRK bag
Mug which makes a lovely clink setting on granite
Three broken plastic bands to a Fitbit type item
Paper gift bag
Car mount for electronic device (sans instructions)
Meh
4-pack of different-headed tweezers, open box. Top pair of tweezers missing.
mini-lighsaber looking object, no packaging. Jammed a battery in it and it’s a flashlight on one side, flare kinda thing on the other.
Puffy vest wrapped in plastic with a power bank in one of the pockets and an “on” button where you expect a logo to be. After fiddling with it it turns out you can plug the power bank in and push the button and the vest kinda heats itself? Kinda.
Two VERY nice Philips Sonicare toothbrushes (packaged together)… in an open box, with some unwrapped contents, during a pandemic. Whatever, heads were new in original plastic, nothing can go wrong here.
@bowiebulge I have the green one sitting on my desk! They flash for walking the dog at night and you can run a string through the top and wear it around your neck.
Mine arrived today:
1 mug unbroken. Someone wanted more. Whisper me. This one is blue inside, white outside and unbroken
1 synthetic woven yarn style throw, brown, not very soft but looks unused and in its original bag.
1 small monster screen screener spray
1 s/m light blue fleece flip flops says spa on them. Too small for me but looks new.
1 irk bag
Photo to follow when I get a chance (mine is essentially the same as carl669’s higher up this thread.
Finally got mine today, and already see there’s a reveal thread for July… Anyway, I should now have enough IRK bags to do a huge grocery shopping trip once re-usable bags are again allowed in the stores.
Plus:
A “basket-weave” metal and glass bowl. Plenty of staticky bits of styrofoam everywhere too.
An ultrasonic diffuser - Not sure I understand why it needed to be ultrasonic or be plugged in, but there it is.
Another wireless phone charger.
And one of those sapphire heart pendant necklaces that meh’s practically been giving away lately…
Not fantastic, not horrible; I guess that’s why they call it mediocre, huh?
I think I posted in the wrong thread because it was pinned now! What a great issue to have. Too many IRKS.
I couldn’t find anything wood grain to post on so I went with concrete.
I got some socks for tiny feets.
Some headphones.
Some fake AirPods.
A brown shirt.
A black bag.
Glad to have another bag.
Glad to have a shirt even though it’s brown.
I have purchased both these listening devices from Meh and both broke right away so I consider this just good customer service.
IRK bag
Bytech True Wireless Earbuds (already have one cutting out occasionally but nice to have a backup set!)
Women’s American Apparel Tee
Women’s workout socks (but I can barely stuff my feet in!)
Bamboo neck pillow from Bed & Brand
The neck pillow is the clear winner here. It’s super comfy and relaxing. Since I can actually use all but one item this is a big winner. Thanks Meh!!
Got mine today:
bag
full size sheet set
churro flavored popcorn
ladies XL shirt
some kid sized knock off crocs. Croc-offs?
@clonetek schrödinger’s toothbrush club? Is that like, you have a box that contains electric toothbrushes are are either broken or working?
@jsh139 It seems to be from this:
@clonetek
Oh my gosh churro flavored popcorn, sounds delicious!
@clonetek @jsh139 I neeed that shirt! That dang toothbrush is the one and only Meh order I have ever had cancelled on me.
Not a bad irk, still not sure about this monthly deal though.
I’ll take it.
Black Irk Bag
Purple Primula Insulated Mug (@Barney)- will use
InstaCharge 5000mah battery - nice and small to carry
Asobu coffee cup, looks pretty, weird handle
Hotel New York Queen sheets. nice queen for guest bed but reviews from previous sale are not great, TBD.
Thanks and see ya next month I guess.
@raccoon81 Oooooh, I’m hoping I get a purple mug in my IRK.
@Barney @raccoon81 I hope I get a purple Irk in my mug!
Got mine today. Pretty good
Humidifier
Power bank
Coffee mug
Emoji pillow - my niece scooped it up
Black bag
@tinamarie1974 Penzeys pepper comes in IRKs? Awesome.
HIKING! VIKINGS! STRIKE KING [BRAND FISHING LURES]! AWESOME!
@KNmeh7
Nope, but I usually send some of the sample packs in exchange boxes. Not just pepper, whatever I have on hand.
I got mine Thursday and haven’t gotten to take a picture until tonight. This is a pretty sweet score!
Contents:
Thanks, Meh!
@djslack the juku car kit looks fun!
Why does everyone here have a wooden backdrop? What the shit is going on ?
@zachhh umm… because things in homes are made of wood? @DJSlack looks like leather not wood at least.
What surface would you like the next one to be taken in front of?
/giphy she’s a witch
@raccoon81 @zachhh that ottoman is usually the closest thing to where I open the packages.
Next time I will start experimenting. As long as it’s not wood. Check.
My Google Photos discover this day in history notification just popped up. It’s an IRK from 2016 with my neato botvac in it. But it’s on my wood floor so I’ll keep it safely away.
@zachhh do you not have any wood in your house?
@RiotDemon No. Gross. Wood is just tree bones.
@zachhh mmmm, bones.
Got mine last Thursday, but I was too lazy to post it.
Neck Massager
Nifty coffee cup
Juku Light Games coding kit
Socks
IRK bag
photo taken on apparently ubiquitous wooden backdrop
WTF Meh. ? I’m not sure I am regretting this purchase.
@bluebeatpete just got mine today same items different wood backdrop
@bluebeatpete @sjohannes I also got this exact IRK, and it’s the best $5 I’ve ever spent on meh dot com. Plus I now have blue and purple mugs!
Getting nervous, on usps it’s on it’s way to usps, on Pitney Bowes tracking it was in TX and NH the same day…
@membrr Don’t worry. Mine was delivered before it ever left the warehouse. No hope is the best hope.
@tofarber fingers crossed!
Got mine today. Box wasn’t too heavy so I didn’t expect much but was pleasantly surprised. Most of it I can use (all except the women’s socks
). Here’s what I received:
“This Is Not A Cat In The Hat”
Thanks meh!
@IndifferentDude I got nearly the same box, just a different t-shirt…if I ever fly again, maybe I can try out the noise canceling headset
@IndifferentDude @jchizmar Same here, just a different shirt.
@IndifferentDude @jchizmar @Lister same same same. The earbuds seem pretty cheap, sound quality is awful, but they are small enough that I may find some use for them. The over ear headphones are actually pretty decent for the price. The sound quality is alright; better with noise canceling off. They are fairly comfortable.

I have much nicer anc bluetooth headphones, so I doubt I’ll bother. The shirt (mediocre flask) is way too small for me. The socks are, well, meh.
@IndifferentDude Same! Just a different shirt. But you did get one of my designs, so that’s cool. If you like it I guess.
coffee mug
blanket
screen cleaner
fluffy sandals
black invisible irk bag (not pictured. or is it?)
@carl669 I got almost the identical irk. My throw was woven yarn, not all that soft, but also brown. The rest is exactly the same. My irk bag is visible.
Still listed as processing for mine for the one in mid June.
Here’s mine
-King size sheets
-USB diffuser
-Ladies watch
-Sports bra
-Meh bag
Can’t complain. Thanks meh!!
It’s here! It’s here!
At first I was a bit nervous about Pitney Bowes careful handling but after seeing almost everything is soft I’m not too concerned.
@rrapnek Sweet PB accordion…top notch craftmanship!
Mine showed up today and it is very similar to others’ IRK’s:
Black bag
Pair of Euro women’s tennis socks
Women’s medium tshirt
Wireless iphone-knockoff earbuds
Wireless noise cancelling Altigo headphones
Thanks, Meh!
@Lister Nice shirt! You just saved 10 bucks on this weeks medicritee if it’s the right size
@MrMikenIkes It doesn’t fit me but it fits my daughter perfectly. Whether she will wear it is another story.
@Lister @MrMikenIkes mine is exactly the same as yours, down to the women’s medium shirt:
I can post pictures later but I got:
-A broken porcelain mug in multiple pieces. I could hear it’s fragments as I picked up the box. Pretty lame.
-A Mahli Weighted Neck Wrap & Eye Mask Arometherapy Kit. Say it’s not recommended for sleeping, which is when I’d probably want to use it the most. Still useful though!
-Kenneth Jay Lane Faux Black Gem Necklace. Don’t imagine getting a lot of use out of this one.
-8-Piece Solar LED Butterfly Lights. Hard to see a use out of it in an apartment setting, but we’ll see.
Overall, kind of a disappointment but that’s mostly because of the porcelain mug.
@pat4ever does your apartment have a patio/balcony? That’s where I’d put the butterfly lights.
@pat4ever That sounds instantly regrettable. Congratulations!
Gah…somehow it’s back to being in Texas at the faculty waiting to go to usps… Cuz 2020…
@membrr this happened to me yesterday according to the tracking but it showed up today. seems to be a glitch in the matrix.
Lots of great Irks so far
Thoroughly mediocre this time around:
• Steve T-shirt
(Does everyone know a balding mustachioed Steve they are going to give these to?)
• White Meh Face Throw Pillow
(I have a matching reaction as I now own 5 of these.)
• Euro Women’s Performance Socks
(Y’all must have a lot of these.)
• Bytech Wireless Earbuds w/charging case
(Seem to be unused and decent, yay.)
• Black IRK bag
(As is tradition.)
I’ve had better, but I’ve also had worse for $5.
@xedrothi my husband Steve
@xedrothi I am mustachioed. I was short shorn, but with this COVID thing I have not been to Great Clips since Christmas. I am certainly Steve and anticipating my June IRK!
Solid IRK!
Unsimply stitched 3 pack socks
Laura Ashely Rose Gold Watch
6 PC Towel Set
Asobu Mug
Black Irk Bag
Thanks Meh!
If anybody doesn’t want their mug I’ll pay for you to ship it my way. It looks like a good soup/ice cream mug.
@Star2236 you can have mine. I need to go to the post office this week anyway. Just whisper me your address
@Star2236 I have a blue inside white outside one that just came if you want another (looks like all the other ones people have gotten). In box and unbroken (so far anyway LOL).
I did good!
-Laura Ashley watch in pretty box
-Kate Spade sunglasses in pretty box
-nice set of towels
-crappy screen cleaner
-black bag
THANK YOU!
@sammydog01
Yes you did.
Just got my IRK.
Black IRK bag-always useful.
Monster Screen Clean for Laptops -Useful.
Kate Spade Julieanna sunglasses w/case – you can’t see them against the black but they’re wayfarer style. I’ll wear them.
CobaltX Alloy Wireless earbuds. White/pink -Currently charging. Hopefully they work reasonably well, I broke my earbuds last week.

Got mine SUPER fast this time! Small, but mighty mighty.
Dang nice haul. Thanks, Meh!
@mattpekarek spoopy?
@tinamarie1974 spoooooooooopyyyyyyy
Got my IRK! It’s exactly the same as one posted above, but here it is anyway:
Most happy about the mug, because I got a purple one a couple months ago, and it’s a great mug! Also my second meh massager, and a coding kit that my kids can get into in a year or two.
And who doesn’t love SOCKS?
Got mine today. The biggest surprise of all is that it wasn’t a food saver!
Crappy Headphones
More Crappy Headphones
Black IRK bag
Ladies’ socks
Brown Meh Shirt
I’m actually most excited about the shirt. My size and everything. Well, my size.
Thanks Meh!
@ACraigL I’m wearing that shirt today! It goes with the spackle I got all over it.
@ACraigL
At least it’s not another food saver lol
@Star2236 Haha, totally.
@ACraigL Hello Bag Brother! I got the exact same kit. We must have been packed together.
1 irk bag- can’t have too many
1 Juku kit- haven’t played with it yet, but looks cool. I like lights and games
1 box of socks- I’ll wear em
1 set of sheets- nice to have extras, right size too
1 broken mug- this is meh after all
Got mine! Pretty much what others got. Also got a casemates shirt with a “K” on it. I’m guessing that’s a Kickstarter edition. Sadly, it’s a 4XL, which is about 3 Xs too big.
maybe my wife will want it as a sleep shirt.
Thanks Meh!
Also got a shipping confirmation for my bday IRK!
My June IRK has been sitting in Grapevine, TX for over a week and my July IRK just got shipped via SmartPost today. It’s a race of the IRKs!
Something tells me July is gonna beat out June because PB is nothing but a disappointment
@MrMikenIkes I’m in the same boat as you are! My June IRK was “Accepted at [local] USPS destination facility” two days ago, and then arrived (two days in a row!) at a post office across the state. meanwhile July IRK currently inbound via FedEx/Smartpost with a saturday ETA, so I’m putting my money on the latter arriving first.

Thanks Meh!
Seems like a lot of people are getting shirts, if anybody gets a Men’s Medium and cannot use it I will happily Venmo you a reasonable price
Mine was shipped a week ago but I don’t think I’ll be getting it for awhile since it’s going through Pitney Bowes and has been stuck at their center for days.
Well, I can at least see what gif my order number brings me.
/giphy porky-good-camel
@Rueki That is appropriate
. You’d need good luck to get the thing any time before the next century give or take 79.25 years.
A very nice IRK arrived yesterday!
Black IRK bag for the collection
Kenneth Jay Lane chunky necklace
Laura Ashley watch
Laptop screen cleaner
TaC brew 3 piece tea-brewer
Everything looks new!
Not Meh. Thanks Meh!
No need for pictures, I got the usual suspects.
Eh, better than my last one, but definitely not one of the bests.
Got mine yesterday. Mostly useful items.
5000 mAh power bank
women’s hooded tunic
3-in-1 Flashstick flashlight thingy
2-in-1 Flashlight/work light
Black IRK bag

June arrived before July; as it should be!

Memory Foam Pillow
2-in-1 Flashlight/work light. Will scare away intruders!
Black IRK bag
Mine came today! I received:
The shirt is the one with the green meh text and the Kickstarter logo that was sent to those of us who backed the original Kickstarter way back in 2014. How did they even still have any of these left lying around?!?

IRK bag
Mug which makes a lovely clink setting on granite
Three broken plastic bands to a Fitbit type item
Paper gift bag
Car mount for electronic device (sans instructions)
Meh
Mine arrived today. I got one of those Old Hampshire Yarns blankets in a dark brown color, which I love!
Also got a travel size monster screen cleaner, a mug, a set of spa slippers that are too small and a black irk bag.
Overall, pretty pleased!
Okay this was wild and deeply fully of regret:
This was a pretty great one.
@bowiebulge The light saber looking thing might have a seat belt cutter and car window breaker on it. A long time ago meh sold that.
@Kidsandliz
It appears to just be for illumination.
@bowiebulge That looks different than the kind I was talking about that they sold. Pretty tabby.
@bowiebulge I have the green one sitting on my desk! They flash for walking the dog at night and you can run a string through the top and wear it around your neck.
1 - Black IRK bag
1 - Set of wireless earbuds
1 - Pair of women’s socks
1 - Meh shirt two sizes too big
1 - Electric muscle massager thingy
@cdickson
I like the color of that meh shirt.
I’m still waiting for mine… estimated delivery Monday, August 17th - Friday, August 21st
I’ve had better, I’ve had worse:
emoji pillow (will go to thrift store)
ladies sports socks (wife wants)
small flask shirt (wife wants)
knock off AirPods (I’ll give them a shot)
black IRK bag (always fantastic)
Thanks Meh!
Mine arrived today:
1 mug unbroken. Someone wanted more. Whisper me. This one is blue inside, white outside and unbroken
1 synthetic woven yarn style throw, brown, not very soft but looks unused and in its original bag.
1 small monster screen screener spray
1 s/m light blue fleece flip flops says spa on them. Too small for me but looks new.
1 irk bag

@ciabelle
Got the irk bag
Some knockoff air pods
Emoji pillow
A pair of women’s tennis socks
And a mediocre labs flask logo T-shirt in my actual size
@stevcruise i posted contents earlier, but I had to return because the packaging was stellar. The bottom was tape over plastic wrap.
Got my mid June IRK today:
I got a irk bag
Led flashlight
Building kit toy for kids
Meh pop socket
Very happy with my regret bag
Meh cloth bag
iTek LED flashlight
Nite Ize 3 in 1 Flashstick
Power bank
Marc New York Heritage Loop Terry Hoodie (fits GF!)
Not too disappointing! Now the April IRK I got is still lost somewhere in the Pitney Bowels of hell so plenty of disappointment there!
I think I posted in the wrong thread because it was pinned now! What a great issue to have. Too many IRKS.
I couldn’t find anything wood grain to post on so I went with concrete.
I got some socks for tiny feets.
Some headphones.
Some fake AirPods.
A brown shirt.
A black bag.
Glad to have another bag.
Glad to have a shirt even though it’s brown.
I have purchased both these listening devices from Meh and both broke right away so I consider this just good customer service.
Mine just entered the Pitney-Blows quagmire. Where is a good shipment tracker with package weight info?
Mine arrived yesterday.
IRK bag
Bytech True Wireless Earbuds (already have one cutting out occasionally but nice to have a backup set!)
Women’s American Apparel Tee
Women’s workout socks (but I can barely stuff my feet in!)
Bamboo neck pillow from Bed & Brand
The neck pillow is the clear winner here. It’s super comfy and relaxing. Since I can actually use all but one item this is a big winner. Thanks Meh!!
@bmajazz
Besides the back up set.
