mehrithon suggestion
0so I was thinking for the impending mehrithon, what if one of the sack of mystery (by the way, I recommend naming it 'sack of mystery' because nobody knows how to pronounce Fokubokuru - but I digress) Meh gave away a new car! Can you imagine the attention that would generate? Matt's got a lot of Amazon money, he could spring for it. Or better yet, I bet any car company would love to donate a car to promote the event. So, just something to think about.

I think it would be more fun if instead of giving away a new car, they paid off my house. Either way, I bet it would generate a lot of buzz.
However, I doubt any new cars or house payments will be made as the result of selling Fukubukuros (which probably generate a loss, not a profit).
WHAT IF!!! The sack of whack was a note to pay off someone else's debt?! How meh-a-riffic would that be?!?
Why would a car company "love to donate a car to promote the event"?
OK anyone suspect when the first mehrithon may be? I even checked the woot wiki this morning to see if I could figure out when the first woot off was in relation to the founding of woot.
I think the "forgot to send you another package" format has been perfect. Lots of options possible and lots of suspense.
Pronounced like: foo-koo-boo-koo-row, but I don't see why it matters since we're not really talking here...
It is a proven fact that car companies love to give out free cars just because. You don't even need to be a charity or have a good cause. I wrote in to have new keys made and they must have misread my letter because they sent like 4 free cars for no reason. I imagine if Meh wrote in and asked for cars to give away during the Mehnonite Barn Raising they'd probably have to close the streets of Dallas on the day all the free cars get delivered.
