Mine is still processing. I think it is because they are going to send me 500 Happi Air Filters without the unit. And despite their “value” I would have a heck of a time getting rid of them. Like the good old mythical days.
Got mine today. Very meh but still interesting
Coleman mini grill party pail. Might be useful if I want to charcoal grill something and not fire up the big Brinkman.
Two off brand black mascaras. Will gift to someone.
The usual expected iPhone glass cover and car charger
Blue irk bag
Background: new rug I just bought at the bed bath and beyond closing sale. It really ties the room together.
I, um, got a heat press.
It really is a heat press.
In addition to the charging wallet and 3 mascara shown, there were 6 more mascaras hidden in crannies as well as a blouse.
The box still had a return slip in it. I’ll have to set it up to see if it works, or if this was Meh’s way of disposing of a broken heat press.
Then I’ll have to decide what to do with it, because…heat press.
Mine arrived this afternoon.
FedEx didn’t want to bother bringing it to the door, just left it at the edge of the garage. The box was in pretty bad shape.
It really was the 10 piece set of Cuisinart cookware. It’s not a bad set. Not sure what I’ll do with it. Maybe one of the nephews will like it. Otherwise, I’ll donate it to the local group which helps asylum seekers get settled.
Also a blue bag, cheap set of knives (will also be offered to the nephews and if they don’t want it donated) and a bunch of acrylic paint with glitter already mixed in. I may offer this to a few friends who have banned glitter in their homes despite having girls who LOVE glitter and making their craft projects absolutely fabulous. Or maybe I’ll just quietly pass it on to the girls without mentioning it to their parents.
Only regret comes from the kitties who are upset about the lack of a very fine box (the box barely held together long enough to get it into the house).
@tinamarie1974 I’ve noticed the theme of FedEx not delivering to the front door as well. I’m wondering if part of it is the condition of the boxes (seems a lot more are beat up this round). Or maybe drivers are just overworked, short on time, not willing or able to spend the extra time and steps? I hope this isn’t a trend picked up by other shippers. I’ve not had an issue with porch pirates and I credit that at least partly to my long and covered entrance way making it harder to see a package from the street. But packages left by the garage might be a bit more inticing.
@tinamarie1974 You make some good points about how driveways work. I didn’t realize driveways are complicated concepts. But apparently they are to some people.
I got another delivery from Meh via FedEx today. Much smaller box, in better condition and right on my doorstep. So maybe it’s a fluke and weird coincidence that other packages have been left so far from front doors?
@gt0163c there is absolutely a correlation between heavier boxes and a drivers inability to properly deliver to the customers door. I work w FedEx and have a few coworkers who are ex employees. There are very well known issues with heavy Chewy boxes either not being delivered to the door OR not being delivered at all. So. Very. Odd. Wonder why? 🫢
@gt0163c
That’s what I was hoping my package was when I saw the size of it bc we really need new pans bad. But I got a brand new ninja foodi blender instead.
@gt0163c@tinamarie1974 I always know when the Chewy order gets delivered before getting the text. The big “Chonk” sound at the front door and despite Chewy’s best efforts of protecting the cans, I end up with at least a couple of dented cans.
I got mine today too. No, pics as it was just 3 items. A blue bag. A charcoal memory foam pillow, and a monogram wall art that says it comes with all letters and a ‘frame’. My son suggested using it to make an ouija board.
The pillow was packed tightly and says it may need a week to get to its full shape. So I’ll now how it is next weekend.
I guess this became the reveal thread even though the title clearly says shipping. But I’m not gonna stop what’s going on here…
This one is the my wife special.
/giphy borat my wife
Beach camouflage IRK bag, she loves the beach
“You’re getting warmer.” electric blanket. I always thought electric blankets lasted forever (like my grandma’s from somewhen in the 70’s) but she goes through an average of one a year.
Lily Bloom Bliss rolling duffel, she says she likes it. Came with a busted open bag of “do not eat” silica gel beads, I hope the vacuum finds the ones that escaped before the dogs or baby do.
Steamer, can’t win 'em all
Finally an IRK that doesn’t get me asked “why do you keep getting all this crap?”
@djslack I got a steamer from an Irk a while back. Put it in the laundry room closet and forgot about it until my freezer started icing over. It worked amazingly well for defrosting the freezer. I’ve also used a steamer (along with a lot of paper towel) for removing candle wax from carpet. I’ve never used mine for actually steaming garments. But I’m keeping it because it’s small and does a great job at these occasional tasks.
Mine also came today. Not too regrettable and clearly the best one I’ve ever gotten. It has 2 toilettree face trimmers, 1Heidi & Oak pink pajamas size large, 6 merlot color paints, 1 black wireless charging wallet by Odyssey Tech, and 1 Cuisanart 4 in 1 multicooker that somehow sells for $199 on Amazon. The cooker looks brand new and had booklets and all pieces covered in plastic. It even came with a steaming rack. Just no box. It’s been a good day! Thanks meh!
@hamjudo The mascara boxes look roughly the size of Jenga blocks. 41 is a few shy of an official set but I bet you could make it work. Maybe use the screen protectors as a base and a top of the stack?
@hamjudo I guess the proportions aren’t quite the same as standard issue Jenga. But why would you want to recreate that exactly? This seems like a much more interesting challenge (and more so given that you didn’t put it on a hard surface).
@hamjudo your jenga tower made me laugh. I receive two mascaras and they are actually awesome. If Jenga gets old all the ladies in your life will love them. Nice score on the blender!
Welp, as expected, I did not get the Cuisinart air fryer that I wanted, so I don’t have to cook. But, I did get a respiffied 3-cup Cuisinart Min-Prep Plus Food Processor. It’s interesting that it looks like a retail box, but in red print it says, “Refurbished product with Genuine Cuisinart parts.” I will be giving this away or donating. The rest of the box was odd crap:
• 48 tubes of black mascara. I’m gonna need more eyes.
• Isacc Mizrahi Smooth Shaper
• Dark blue IRK bag
@heartny I hope you are doing rower Jenga like the other guy that got some much mascara. I got two tube and they are great. I’ll relieve you of some if you don’t gift it to your lady friends and coworkers.
I am quite sure the FedEx workers instantly regretted my 90 pound IRK. So much that they put a photo of something else as the delivery photo.
What I know so far:
Torn up box containing stationary bike parts, hopefully all of them. (Son wants it)
Mia K Cross body Phone Wallet (I like this)
Didn’t see an IRK bag but didn’t open the box fully.
Holy crapy Irk arrived. Fed Ex left it on my driveway. Apparently they could not be bothered to go the extra 50 feet on a flat surface to my front door.
I received a $350 STEAM CLEANER, a charging wallet, the obligatory bag and eight tubes of rhat mascara
The steam cleaner works but missing one of the arm pieces, o rings and the measuring cup. Did anyone possibly get my parts?
Also Charliedoggo wants to know who blame because there were no doggy related items for him. You can see the disdain in his face
@Barney@Kyeh he gets too many treats already lol, but Ill give him another from Barney!!
Btw, I ordered the missing extender tube piece on line for $15. I tried calling the company and they were not having it. Said their product always leaves perfectly packaged and it must have been purchased second hand. Lol
@tinamarie1974 Please give Charliedoggo some extra belly rubs and maybe a peanut butter treat from me. This has not been a very good round of IRKs for the furry family members. First my cats are deprived of a very fine box and now CD doesn’t get any doggy items. That said, there have been some nice people items this round.
@ironcheftoni@Kyeh@tinamarie1974 Thanks for the thoughts. While my kitties always appreciate more very fine boxes, they already have plenty.
As for kitties who don’t like boxes, kitties are weirdos. They’re cute, furry, sometimes cuddly, adorable little weirdos.
@gt0163c@ironcheftoni@tinamarie1974
I’m pretty sure mine thinks I’m his well-meaning but slightly clueless mom. With useful opposable thumbs but a regrettable lack of fur.
Definitely instant regret. When I went over to the office to pick it up and I picked it up it hardly weighed anything so I knew none of the good stuff was going to be in it LOL. What it did have in it was an IRK bag, mascara, some other makeupy thing, a very nice sweater if it would fit, and a bird feeder which probably would be okay if I said birds or had a yard to feed birds in so for me total regret
Definitely underwhelming, irk bag, memory foam pillow, and 4 bottles of hair extension spray, 12 glitter paints (all the same color) and a portable coloring kit. Will use the bag and pillow, other stuff already thrown out. Mildly disappointed as I just ran out of mascara. Was hoping for one (or 45) of those.
Regrets, I may have a few… but at least no mascara?
24 bottles of Gallery Glass clear window paint
4 bottles of Mitch Stone x-tender spray
1 Urban Bloom Aros Charcoal pillow (feels like they forgot to add “Tactical”)
1 light blue IRK bag
Trying to figure out if I should start a new stained glass hobby. Thanks, meh!
@lehigh
I use to make gallery glass windows and the clear is the best, you can always add a little of the colored ones to it and get a great pastel look. So much fun that my guy even jumped in and started making them too. He’s a man’s man so that was extremely unexpected! Lol
Pillow - will try it
12 clear window color - not sure, will do some reading
6 hair spray - friend can use
6 trackers - I was getting low!
Blue bag - useful
Mine came today. I got a fan inside a box that was covered in hair goo, so that immediately went in the trash. I also got six mascara and some clear window paint. I did not get a bag, literally the only reason I bought an Irk this time, since I have a blue one that the stitches are starting to come out of.
This was our first IRK and as very happy with the contents. I was prepared for spare vacuum parts but can use most of what was included. My kids have already looted the contents and fought over the tote bag.
I did receive mascara but only two tubes, which is great for me. FYI, it’s decent mascara. But not enough for Jenga…
The kit included:
1 tan IRK tote bag
1 power bank
1 sonic humidifier
1 faux leather bag in black
2 mascaras
Sorry for those that did not like what they received. BUT that is the gamble. As the return policy states, “regretable”.
I haven’t uploaded my last couple of IRKs, mainly because there was nothing really to write home about in them. But boy howdy this was a good one!
Blue IRK bag
bunch of bottles of maroon paint
weird christmas book thing
AND A COMPLETE SET OF CUISINART POTS AND PANS!!!
The box is a little beat up, but everything inside is unopened and undamaged. Major score!!! almost makes up for the piles of trackr dots and phone cases I’ve got in the past.
Mine is out for delivery. Tracking said it was sent FedEx surepost, but there’s a new notation in the travel history. Now says it’s being delivered FedEx ground (which explains getting it a day early; no handoff to USPS). Glad I don’t have much longer to wait.
1 tan irk bag (not pictured)
1 hair-curling device
1 folding eyeglass caddie thing
2 face trimmers, i guess for when your face gets too big
4 sets of screen protectors for the iPhone 11
48 boxes of mascara
useless for me but perfect for my mom, who has an iPhone 11, curls her hair, wears glasses, has hundreds of eyeballs, and sometimes gets a big face.
Regrets for at least a week. That is how long the pillow is supposed to air out for before using. No need for a picture as it was a blue bag, 7 TrackR poker chips, and aforementioned Urban Bloom pillow, which was supposedly $140 MSRP. Ha!
I laughed so much when I opened it up. Like someone else said I haven’t shared my irks for a while bc I haven’t gotten much that is notable. This time I got:
1 light blue bag
1 face hair trimmer
3 chalk acrylic paints
7 mascaras (black)
A brand new set of hard sided luggage! Adrienne Vittadini brand selling on MorningSave for $150. Score!
Mine came Monday, with mixed results similar to most of the posts so far.
–1 charcoal memory foam pillow (currently $61.49 on Overstock)
–Queen set of white microfiber sheets (2nd set I’ve received in the same color, no price comparison obtained)
–12 bottles Martha Stewart glitter craft paint ($10 each on the 'Zon, low in stock)
–4 hair extension conditioner sprays ($15-30 per bottle, depending on 3rd party seller)
–1 beige IRK bag (priceless)
I’m always in the market for something to help with cervical radiculopathy which makes my arms about as functional as cooked spaghetti at times, so I’m hoping the pillow will be a good one. First, it has quite a bit of “inflating” to do, it looks like it’s been in the box way too long! I don’t have much use for craft paint in general, so i gave that to my neighbor friend, along with the sheets & a bottle of the conditioner spray to try. Neither of us uses extensions or wigs, but it should work on regular hair, too. Not a total disappointment, but not exactly a jackpot either. I’d say, sufficiently Meh for an IRK.
@ircon96 My pillow has not changed much in shape (very misshapened from being rolled up too long) after three days. I’ll give it a week or two before I toss it but the cover is very nice. I figured I could stuff it with an old blanket and make a pet bed out of it.
@steeltoesenator Mine is similarly slow to “bloom,” but it just happens to serve a purpose at the moment. It fits in my recliner, which desperately needs to be brought behind the barn & shot. Until i replace it, the pillow seems to be helping a bit, & the curve in it even serves a purpose, i guess.
The IRK has landed! I received a Cuisinart convection toaster oven broiler. I don’t have one of these and am anxious to try it out. The box was a bit beat up, but it looks okay on first glance. I haven’t completely extricated it yet…need to make some room on the counter first. Also not pictured…a box of Wall Pops and a tan IRK bag. Thanks, Meh!
Mine arrived Sunday, when I saw the big box on my porch I thought for sure it was pots and pans and was thrilled bc we need new pots and pans badly but it wasn’t. Anyways I got
members only boxers, for someone with a size large member
Cuisinart toaster over broiler pan w/rack, works for my toaster oven.
-JVC Marshmallow wireless earbud, I’ll probably try them bc I’m super picky out my earbuds bc my ears are small and most hurt my ears. Anybody tried these?
36 tubes of mascara, my mom and sister are getting mascara for their bday.
Ninja foodi power nutri duo! Sweet! I drink smoothies everyday.
Blue bag with nothing in the pockets
Definitely not a bad irk at all. No regrets here, thanks meh.
My charcoal bloom pillow is beyond a late bloomer. Goes in the trash today and the very nice cover already has an old blanket in it and is now a pet bed.
FedEx has an estimated date of Tuesday for me in PA!
/giphy WoW
@fjp999 Now updated to arrive Sat (tomorrow)!
MOM!
(I’m lying on my back as I type this.)
@phendrick You should have typed
¡MOM
@IndifferentDude
¡claro que si
I’m hoping for a later shipped one.
The last few IRKs that were the first to arrive were kinda Meh!
Mine says sunday. and yes fedex does deliver here on sunday
@Cerridwyn Mine says Sunday too and I have had regretful deliveries on Sunday where I live.
ETA of Wednesday (West Coast).
Saturday 6/10/2023. That is tomorrow!
@hamjudo Mine too. Just has to come to the opposite side of the Metroplex.
@gt0163c Now the FedEx tracking says it will be delivered Sunday June 11, which coincidentally is also tomorrow.
Mine is still processing. I think it is because they are going to send me 500 Happi Air Filters without the unit. And despite their “value” I would have a heck of a time getting rid of them. Like the good old mythical days.
@KNmeh7 Mine is still processing too. I suppose I’ll get the Happi unit minus any usable filters.
@KNmeh7 @steeltoesenator if that is the case then the two of you could be happi if you got me tried.
Mine says Sunday for MI, in saying doubtful but we’ll see
Mine said it last scanned in New Mexico. So that tells me that it’s left Texas.
Shipped today and Monday here.
@Cerridwyn
Shouldn’t your topic title be
“Junk Irk already shipping” ?
Got mine today. Very meh but still interesting
Coleman mini grill party pail. Might be useful if I want to charcoal grill something and not fire up the big Brinkman.
Two off brand black mascaras. Will gift to someone.
The usual expected iPhone glass cover and car charger
Blue irk bag
Background: new rug I just bought at the bed bath and beyond closing sale. It really ties the room together.
@ironcheftoni nice Big Lebowski reference!
Mine has shipped. Coming the long way from Texas to Arkansas via Arizona? At least that’s what tracking tells me.
@steeltoesenator AR, AZ, perhaps even AL? You’re lucky they didn’t send it to AK.
I, um, got a heat press.
It really is a heat press.
In addition to the charging wallet and 3 mascara shown, there were 6 more mascaras hidden in crannies as well as a blouse.
The box still had a return slip in it. I’ll have to set it up to see if it works, or if this was Meh’s way of disposing of a broken heat press.
Then I’ll have to decide what to do with it, because…heat press.
@Bimble that’s pretty sweet, if you need a heat press… If not, that’s a big inconvenient thing to have around.
@djslack Right? Someone had to be cackling as they packed this up. “Throw in more mascara, too!” I can respect that. I would have done the same.
Though I’ll always wonder how a returned Chinese heat press wound up in Meh’s hands.
@Bimble WOW unique!!
Mine arrived this afternoon.
FedEx didn’t want to bother bringing it to the door, just left it at the edge of the garage. The box was in pretty bad shape.
It really was the 10 piece set of Cuisinart cookware. It’s not a bad set. Not sure what I’ll do with it. Maybe one of the nephews will like it. Otherwise, I’ll donate it to the local group which helps asylum seekers get settled.
Also a blue bag, cheap set of knives (will also be offered to the nephews and if they don’t want it donated) and a bunch of acrylic paint with glitter already mixed in. I may offer this to a few friends who have banned glitter in their homes despite having girls who LOVE glitter and making their craft projects absolutely fabulous. Or maybe I’ll just quietly pass it on to the girls without mentioning it to their parents.
Only regret comes from the kitties who are upset about the lack of a very fine box (the box barely held together long enough to get it into the house).
@gt0163c
@gogrrl @gt0163c
Good use and glad you have a place like that to donate to
@gt0163c wondering what is with FedEx only delivering to the garage. Seems to be a trend.
@tinamarie1974 I’ve noticed the theme of FedEx not delivering to the front door as well. I’m wondering if part of it is the condition of the boxes (seems a lot more are beat up this round). Or maybe drivers are just overworked, short on time, not willing or able to spend the extra time and steps? I hope this isn’t a trend picked up by other shippers. I’ve not had an issue with porch pirates and I credit that at least partly to my long and covered entrance way making it harder to see a package from the street. But packages left by the garage might be a bit more inticing.
@gt0163c so I called fedex to complaim
@tinamarie1974 You make some good points about how driveways work. I didn’t realize driveways are complicated concepts. But apparently they are to some people.
I got another delivery from Meh via FedEx today. Much smaller box, in better condition and right on my doorstep. So maybe it’s a fluke and weird coincidence that other packages have been left so far from front doors?

This one is the my wife special.
/giphy borat my wife
Finally an IRK that doesn’t get me asked “why do you keep getting all this crap?”
Thanks, Meh!
@djslack I got a steamer from an Irk a while back. Put it in the laundry room closet and forgot about it until my freezer started icing over. It worked amazingly well for defrosting the freezer. I’ve also used a steamer (along with a lot of paper towel) for removing candle wax from carpet. I’ve never used mine for actually steaming garments. But I’m keeping it because it’s small and does a great job at these occasional tasks.
@gt0163c I did not think about defrosting freezers, that’s a great idea! I actually need to defrost the mini fridge in my office.
@djslack @gt0163c I used my steamer to remove wallpaper. Now it’s too sticky to use on clothes.
@djslack
That’s a great haul, and I’d be thrilled with the iron/steamer bc I want a steamer.
@gt0163c @sammydog01 Questionable tip: I bet if you used another steamer you could clean the first steamer…
Mine also came today. Not too regrettable and clearly the best one I’ve ever gotten. It has 2 toilettree face trimmers, 1Heidi & Oak pink pajamas size large, 6 merlot color paints, 1 black wireless charging wallet by Odyssey Tech, and 1 Cuisanart 4 in 1 multicooker that somehow sells for $199 on Amazon. The cooker looks brand new and had booklets and all pieces covered in plastic. It even came with a steaming rack. Just no box. It’s been a good day! Thanks meh!
Got mine today-three things
Not bad.
We won, because my wife and I were actually talking about getting a new blender.
On the other hand, 41 packages of black mascara is extreme.
I will use the Cleveland Cityscape peel and stick wall art for an upcoming Zoom call with my extended family. Several of them live in Cleveland.
Another bag is always useful. Screen protectors for a phone I don’t own, isn’t useful.
If I use the mascara as paint, will it be temporary or permanent? Will it stick to metal, glass, or plastic? Is it useful for anything?
@hamjudo How about this for a start?
@hamjudo The mascara boxes look roughly the size of Jenga blocks. 41 is a few shy of an official set but I bet you could make it work. Maybe use the screen protectors as a base and a top of the stack?
@gt0163c Seven blocks per layer makes it a very different game.
@hamjudo I guess the proportions aren’t quite the same as standard issue Jenga. But why would you want to recreate that exactly? This seems like a much more interesting challenge (and more so given that you didn’t put it on a hard surface).
@hamjudo your jenga tower made me laugh. I receive two mascaras and they are actually awesome. If Jenga gets old all the ladies in your life will love them. Nice score on the blender!
LEGOS! EGGOS! STRATEGO! AWESOME!
@hamjudo
I got the same blender (brand new too) and 36 of the mascaras.
Welp, as expected, I did not get the Cuisinart air fryer that I wanted, so I don’t have to cook. But, I did get a respiffied 3-cup Cuisinart Min-Prep Plus Food Processor. It’s interesting that it looks like a retail box, but in red print it says, “Refurbished product with Genuine Cuisinart parts.” I will be giving this away or donating. The rest of the box was odd crap:
• 48 tubes of black mascara. I’m gonna need more eyes.
• Isacc Mizrahi Smooth Shaper
• Dark blue IRK bag
That’s it. Anybody want some mascara?
@heartny Maybe Alice Cooper could use a re-supply.
I imagine the postal service could find his house , if you sent it there as a lark.
@heartny I hope you are doing rower Jenga like the other guy that got some much mascara. I got two tube and they are great. I’ll relieve you of some if you don’t gift it to your lady friends and coworkers.
I am quite sure the FedEx workers instantly regretted my 90 pound IRK. So much that they put a photo of something else as the delivery photo.

Holy crapy Irk arrived. Fed Ex left it on my driveway. Apparently they could not be bothered to go the extra 50 feet on a flat surface to my front door.
I received a $350 STEAM CLEANER, a charging wallet, the obligatory bag and eight tubes of rhat mascara
The steam cleaner works but missing one of the arm pieces, o rings and the measuring cup. Did anyone possibly get my parts?
Also Charliedoggo wants to know who blame because there were no doggy related items for him. You can see the disdain in his face
@tinamarie1974 WOW! Very cool! But yes, CD does look indignant (still cute though.)
@Kyeh thanks! He got a new groomer and I like the way she does his face.
@tinamarie1974 She did a great job!
@Kyeh @tinamarie1974 Aw, poor unloved puppy. He needs a treat.
@Barney @Kyeh he gets too many treats already lol, but Ill give him another from Barney!!
Btw, I ordered the missing extender tube piece on line for $15. I tried calling the company and they were not having it. Said their product always leaves perfectly packaged and it must have been purchased second hand. Lol
@tinamarie1974 Please give Charliedoggo some extra belly rubs and maybe a peanut butter treat from me. This has not been a very good round of IRKs for the furry family members. First my cats are deprived of a very fine box and now CD doesn’t get any doggy items. That said, there have been some nice people items this round.
@gt0163c I will be happy to do so and he says thank you! Belly rubs and pb treats are his fav.
I lucked out this round, but in general it looks like it is a bit of a mixed bag.
Hope all is well in your world
@tinamarie1974
Wow good for you! Cleaning got a bunch easier.
@gt0163c @tinamarie1974 I wish I could send you my boxes. Sadly my cats are weird and don’t like playing in boxes.
@gt0163c @ironcheftoni @tinamarie1974 Same with mine! He seems afraid of them.
@ironcheftoni @Kyeh @tinamarie1974 Thanks for the thoughts. While my kitties always appreciate more very fine boxes, they already have plenty.
As for kitties who don’t like boxes, kitties are weirdos. They’re cute, furry, sometimes cuddly, adorable little weirdos.
@gt0163c @ironcheftoni @tinamarie1974 They probably think we’re weirdos too!
@ironcheftoni @Kyeh @tinamarie1974 I think mine think I’m a big, dumb cat who wouldn’t survive a moment out in the wild without them to take care of me.
@gt0163c @ironcheftoni @tinamarie1974
I’m pretty sure mine thinks I’m his well-meaning but slightly clueless mom. With useful opposable thumbs but a regrettable lack of fur.

Will use the bag and pillow, other stuff already thrown out. Mildly disappointed as I just ran out of mascara. Was hoping for one (or 45) of those.
@steeltoesenator You can have my 48 mascaras
@heartny I only need one or two, would last me a long time, I rarely wear makeup in the summer, mostly at work.
@steeltoesenator
The color pocket thing looks cool for kids.
Regrets, I may have a few… but at least no mascara?
24 bottles of Gallery Glass clear window paint
4 bottles of Mitch Stone x-tender spray
1 Urban Bloom Aros Charcoal pillow (feels like they forgot to add “Tactical”)
1 light blue IRK bag
Trying to figure out if I should start a new stained glass hobby. Thanks, meh!
@lehigh It’s the clear color only like what I got, but you can turn a clear window into one of those distorted views.
@lehigh Is your pillow fluffing up? Mines seems stuck flat.
@lehigh
I use to make gallery glass windows and the clear is the best, you can always add a little of the colored ones to it and get a great pastel look. So much fun that my guy even jumped in and started making them too. He’s a man’s man so that was extremely unexpected! Lol
@lehigh
The window paint looks cool
Pillow - will try it
12 clear window color - not sure, will do some reading
6 hair spray - friend can use
6 trackers - I was getting low!
Blue bag - useful
@speediedelivery What, no mascara?!
@heartny No Jenga here. No need for mascara either so no regrets on that point!
Mine came today. I got a fan inside a box that was covered in hair goo, so that immediately went in the trash. I also got six mascara and some clear window paint. I did not get a bag, literally the only reason I bought an Irk this time, since I have a blue one that the stitches are starting to come out of.
@fuzzmanmatt I got the same fan! and didnt get a bag but requested one from Support and they acted immediately with it being delivered to me Wed!
/giphy Great Support!
This was our first IRK and as very happy with the contents. I was prepared for spare vacuum parts but can use most of what was included. My kids have already looted the contents and fought over the tote bag.
I did receive mascara but only two tubes, which is great for me. FYI, it’s decent mascara. But not enough for Jenga…
The kit included:
1 tan IRK tote bag
1 power bank
1 sonic humidifier
1 faux leather bag in black
2 mascaras
Sorry for those that did not like what they received. BUT that is the gamble. As the return policy states, “regretable”.
This whole thing cracks me up.
@MeganChapa I have extra bags if you want any. No mascara in my but trackers!
I haven’t uploaded my last couple of IRKs, mainly because there was nothing really to write home about in them. But boy howdy this was a good one!
Blue IRK bag
bunch of bottles of maroon paint
weird christmas book thing
AND A COMPLETE SET OF CUISINART POTS AND PANS!!!
The box is a little beat up, but everything inside is unopened and undamaged. Major score!!! almost makes up for the piles of trackr dots and phone cases I’ve got in the past.
Mine is out for delivery. Tracking said it was sent FedEx surepost, but there’s a new notation in the travel history. Now says it’s being delivered FedEx ground (which explains getting it a day early; no handoff to USPS). Glad I don’t have much longer to wait.
1 tan irk bag (not pictured)
1 hair-curling device
1 folding eyeglass caddie thing
2 face trimmers, i guess for when your face gets too big
4 sets of screen protectors for the iPhone 11
48 boxes of mascara
useless for me but perfect for my mom, who has an iPhone 11, curls her hair, wears glasses, has hundreds of eyeballs, and sometimes gets a big face.
Regrets for at least a week. That is how long the pillow is supposed to air out for before using. No need for a picture as it was a blue bag, 7 TrackR poker chips, and aforementioned Urban Bloom pillow, which was supposedly $140 MSRP. Ha!
@KNmeh7 They’re still not out of TrackR chips? I thought those were finally all gone.
I wonder if anyone got Clawz this time.
@gt0163c @KNmeh7 I have a pair or two I could donate to the cause
I should have clarified- IRK bags although the trackers are not a deal breaker
I laughed so much when I opened it up. Like someone else said I haven’t shared my irks for a while bc I haven’t gotten much that is notable. This time I got:
1 light blue bag
1 face hair trimmer
3 chalk acrylic paints
7 mascaras (black)
A brand new set of hard sided luggage! Adrienne Vittadini brand selling on MorningSave for $150. Score!
Mine came Monday, with mixed results similar to most of the posts so far.
–1 charcoal memory foam pillow (currently $61.49 on Overstock)
–Queen set of white microfiber sheets (2nd set I’ve received in the same color, no price comparison obtained)
–12 bottles Martha Stewart glitter craft paint ($10 each on the 'Zon, low in stock)
–4 hair extension conditioner sprays ($15-30 per bottle, depending on 3rd party seller)
–1 beige IRK bag (priceless)
I’m always in the market for something to help with cervical radiculopathy which makes my arms about as functional as cooked spaghetti at times, so I’m hoping the pillow will be a good one. First, it has quite a bit of “inflating” to do, it looks like it’s been in the box way too long! I don’t have much use for craft paint in general, so i gave that to my neighbor friend, along with the sheets & a bottle of the conditioner spray to try. Neither of us uses extensions or wigs, but it should work on regular hair, too. Not a total disappointment, but not exactly a jackpot either. I’d say, sufficiently Meh for an IRK.
@ircon96 My pillow has not changed much in shape (very misshapened from being rolled up too long) after three days. I’ll give it a week or two before I toss it but the cover is very nice. I figured I could stuff it with an old blanket and make a pet bed out of it.
@steeltoesenator Mine is similarly slow to “bloom,” but it just happens to serve a purpose at the moment. It fits in my recliner, which desperately needs to be brought behind the barn & shot. Until i replace it, the pillow seems to be helping a bit, & the curve in it even serves a purpose, i guess.
IRK bag
Pair of jeans - 36x32
4 sets of wall pops
Box of 4 solar gutter lights
2 boxes of solar string lights
The IRK has landed! I received a Cuisinart convection toaster oven broiler. I don’t have one of these and am anxious to try it out. The box was a bit beat up, but it looks okay on first glance. I haven’t completely extricated it yet…need to make some room on the counter first. Also not pictured…a box of Wall Pops and a tan IRK bag. Thanks, Meh!
@gogrrl pretty!!
@tinamarie1974 Once I removed it from the box, I noticed a dent on one side of it. I don’t think it will interfere with it working, though.
@gogrrl
@gogrrl OOOO…nice. I hope it works. I’d also love a review. I’ve been thinking about getting one of these.
Beige IRK bag
9 phone grip/stand rings
Adhesive phone wallet thing
5pack of CR2016 batteries
Monogram wall pop
Urban bloom memory foam and charcoal pillow
I can probably use like a thing from the box, so not the worst ever.
Mine arrived Sunday, when I saw the big box on my porch I thought for sure it was pots and pans and was thrilled bc we need new pots and pans badly but it wasn’t. Anyways I got
-JVC Marshmallow wireless earbud, I’ll probably try them bc I’m super picky out my earbuds bc my ears are small and most hurt my ears. Anybody tried these?
Definitely not a bad irk at all. No regrets here, thanks meh.
My charcoal bloom pillow is beyond a late bloomer. Goes in the trash today and the very nice cover already has an old blanket in it and is now a pet bed.
