IRK vs BOC: February 2023 Edition
10These two packages arrived during the same week, and the outward similarity gave me the idea to do a comparison. My BOC was from the Woot-off from a few weeks ago, but first package got lost in shipping and this was the replacement.
Boxes are about the same size and weight. IRK (left) has a handle sticking out. Advantage: IRK
Both come with bags. IRK has plenty of room for Texas air, but none provided. Advantage: BOC
IRK contents:
- Cuisinart fry pan and sauce pan with lid
- Mary Ruth in a bottle
- iPhone cases and screen protectors
- Sunglasses
BOC contents: - Fleece lined hoodie XL
- Empty Bulova watch box
- Box of Crayons
- Socks
- Easel card holders
- Squishy light bulb
- Cabinet storage thingy
- Black pants 36/32
- SUPERfeet
- CAT workboots 9.5
I just replaced my worn out CAT workboots with Keens, and these are one size too small anyway. But I will use the Superfeet.
So it comes down to pans vs. boots and hoodie. Kind of a toss up depending on your circumstances. But I’m going to give the win to BOC for quantity and slightly higher randomness factor.

Yep – the pans would have excited me more than the hoodie/pants/boots due to their sizing.
@narfcake along with the socks, you’ve got a complete wardrobe for a certain person.

That was the second try. First try was just feet also.
@walarney How many people are in that picture?
I got a pair of Keen sandals in my last BOC, and they are my size!
I’m waiting for warm weather to try them out!
I can never win a boc on my phone. I don’t know if it’s my browser but I just stay in the vestibule forever. One time I got extremely lucky when I refreshed the page I happened to move to checkout but every other time it’s no dice.
