IRKSPLOSION!

@tinamarie1974 I’d trade it all for a good night’s sleep (that’s how I usually get these – note the times of the last two).

@ACraigL oh my goodness! I was fast asleep!

I woke up to something like 15 text messages from my neighbors talking about the parade of firetrucks in front of my house last night starting at about 2:30 am. I heard NOTHING

@ACraigL @tinamarie1974 stayed up late and biffed the 2am-ish drop when I refreshed on the fully linked deal vs meh.com

@ACraigL @tinamarie1974 Why were there fire trucks?

@tinamarie1974 Just got IRK-since I am due 3 now-they will definitely run out of bubble wrap shipping mine.

@ACraigL @Kyeh apparently there was a house fire about a half mile away. They decided to stage back up trucks (hook and ladder and a pumper that I saw this morning) in my subdivision. I heard the chief was parked at the entrance directing everything.

Haven’t heard about the actual fire. Hope the people got out ok!!

@ACraigL @tinamarie1974 Yikes! I hope so too.

@ACraigL @lehigh @tinamarie1974 fully linked deal?

@boc Same here, all 3 processing still.

@boc Also same.

@boc Same! Maybe one big bubble wrapper box!

@Felton10 I have timed it - my computer takes 36 seconds to refresh once the timer hits :00 on a prior deal, so no IRKs (or creepy dolls, today) for me. I dunno what happened, it was after the last W10 update a couple of months(?) ago.

@cbl_wv @Felton10 Hit refresh when there’s 5 seconds left.

@cbl_wv @Tadlem43 I guess it’s different for everyone- My usual MO is to keep my computer clock open and click on meh (not refresh) when it is 2-3 seconds past .00. Got one earlier in the day and have gotten over 20 IRKs so if it isn’t broke I’m going to keep doing it. But thanks for the suggestion.

@KNmeh7 Let’s just say I have more than one regret in life.

@galewarning I can’t remember if it was a waffle iron… the link was jumping around, but yes. So 4 total incoming.

@ACraigL @galewarning
What side deal waffle iron irk are you talking about and when?

@ACraigL @galewarning so that wasn’t a tall tale. I went all over sidedeal, never saw a thing. I do already have a waffle iron, maybe I didn’t click there.

@star2236 during the cuisinarathon.

@ACraigL @djslack @galewarning @Star2236 I got one too. The fedex guy is gonna hate me.

@ACraigL @djslack @galewarning @Star2236
Alas I missed it; I checked earlier in the day and saw nothing obvious; by the time they were hinting more directly in the evening it had sold out. Still in the product description to taunt.

@ACraigL nicely done

@ACraigL @djslack @galewarning @lehigh
Was it really $60?

@Star2236 The waffle iron was $60. You had to click on the red sentence to get to the Irk, which was $5.

@ACraigL @galewarning @lehigh you know what, I was more concerned with how I could point out that “Wisk” is a detergent, and that thing it comes with is a whisk. I deserve not to have gotten it.

@lehigh Wow, yeah. That was my first Irk.

@phendrick You mean like this? (Purchases other than IRKs have been removed to make the list smaller).

Wish I could have submitted this post anonymously so nobody gets jealous with me. Note that I don’t have a job and stay up for 24 hours straight to get a better chance and to click all the meh faces. Don’t hate me.

@cengland0 @phendrick it’s all good…if I go back to June I beat ya by 1!

3 if you count scary dolls.

@cengland0

@PHRoG How could you have beat me by 1? I didn’t miss any IRKs and I didn’t include the ones I got from the sister sites. Do you get those IRKs for Ink ones?

@cengland0 @phendrick That’s impressive. I’ve had decent success with getting them, but the fact there’s 4 in-flight at the same time was what I was really shooting for.

@ACraigL I have 4 processing at the same time. None of those 4 have shipped. They are probably waiting for the truck to arrive from the city dump before they can fulfill my orders.

@cengland0 nope, no IRK for ink…is that a thing I’ve missed? I’d be down!

Unsure on the mismatch count if you’ve got them all too. Last one I missed was Halloween 2019.

@Felton10 …you know you can clean them, right?

@endi1276 Yes I do, but at some point especially if you put blueberries in the waffles as we do, the nooks and crannies get to dirty and the non stick surface loses its non stickiness.

I mean after a couple of years, better to have a replacement on hand that you paid 39.99 for rather than have to pay 69.99 full price.

@Felton10 It’s nice when people include links to the products they mention. So here it is: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/bella-pro-series-belgian-flip-waffle-maker-stainless-steel/6355792.p?skuId=6355792

@cengland0 you are right-should have done that.

@cengland0 @Felton10
You could just blame the scapegoat for the oversight. Just sayin’. Paging @DoctorOW.

@cengland0 @DoctorOW @mike808 I have to ween myself of this Goat thing so I am taking responsibility for own actions for a couple of days.

I am upset though that DoctorOW transition’s team has yet to contact me.

Hi @Ninja54 check your email settings here on Meh. If they are checked, try to uncheck them, back out and then go back in a recheck them.

If all else fails you can see if support can help.

@Ninja54 I have signed you up to some other mailing lists to make up for your loss.

(Check your profile from the menu at the top).

@mlbrink HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! We celebrate YOU!!

@Tadlem43 Cheers mate! I finally got an IRK!!!

@mlbrink Hope it’s a GREAT one!!

@OnionSoup seriously, is it my phone or an april fool’s on the website changing side deals to side seals?

@OnionSoup side deal

@OnionSoup it’s your phone

@OnionSoup This has to be an April’s Fools. Side Seals offering Irks? I don’t buy it.

@jimmyd103 @OnionSoup They did it twice - once when they started Sidedeal, to get people to check it out, and again when they had a whole bunch of Cuisinart stuff over there they wanted us to see.

@Kyeh @OnionSoup Ahh, my memory is not so great. I just looked at my purchase history and I guess I scored an IRK over there one year ago today.

@jimmyd103 @OnionSoup Yeah, that was the first one I was able to get!

@narfcake OOOHHHH NOOOOOOOO!

@andrewkl I got a pass ever since I hit the Jackpot on my IRK last December-it gives me free reign probably for a year to waste money on IRKs.

Can’t imagine with all the IRKs they have to send out there will be much in them.

@andrewkl I totally missed the SideDeal one, but this winter I basically did a “white elephant/secret santa” with my co-workers where I just made 9 boxes of garbage and gave them away over a video call. They seemed mildly entertained, and it got rid of some of my IRKs

@OnionSoup I’ve gone through ever-single-product manually on SideDeal and couldn’t find any hidden IRK links.

@OnionSoup You did it.

@PHRoG The hidden IRK link is still there. Go to this waffle iron product:

Then click on the red link called, “It’s a Really Keen Waffle Machine”. It takes you to an IRK that has already been sold out.

@cengland0 YEAH!

Thank you everyone that helped.

@cengland0 oh, yes, I totally found that one!

I was talking about for yesterday’s joe-rathon. Was hoping they’d do it again, lol!

@Chingis I got 1 and plan to retire undefeated.

@shahnm

The lie is a cake.

@f00l @shahnm it’s going the distance

@aaee Well, this month is only 1 day long so far. (Didn’t they used to be only once a month though?)

@sammydog01 you mean that’s not just for the morningsave folks?

/s

@sammydog01 I buy more than kits…if hubby hasn’t seen a meh package in awhile he starts to worry.

@djslack BTW-how is the box to my x box doing if you don’t mind me asking.

@Felton10 it’s doing just fine, though it may not survive the upcoming purge that’s on tap for this weekend.

@djslack why not?

@Felton10 there’s been a purge declared. For 24 hours there are no laws. Don’t know what might happen to it.

@Felton10 That reminds me. I have not actually opened my last two Meh orders… I wonder WTF I bought…?

@Felton10 I think I’ve probably got about a dozen…maybe a baker’s dozen.
