@customers (reposting from the deal thread)
The good news is we got these IRKs shipped out faster than expected! The bad news? They shipped out before our printed IRK bags arrived.
Basically we were out of IRK bags, did a rush order, and then I didn’t communicate with the warehouse staff thoroughly to make sure they held the orders until the bags arrived. So…we’re getting bags tomorrow, while many of the IRKs shipped yesterday and today.
So that sucks. I’ve set you all up with a $5 off coupon for Meh: ALLIRKNOBAG (expires 12/31/2024 - the end of next year)
Feel free to post photos of your new Irk stuffie griping about the lack of a bag. We’re getting enough bags ahead of time that this shouldn’t happen again. Sorry about that.
@dave but… I wanted the bag lol. Even though the last few were dupes. And the last irk bag was just this small white thing which I can’t put groceries or anything in… was hoping that was a one off and we’d get a useful one at least.
Also if you noticed… The last irk was bad. Now no bag? Me sad.
Also I just weighed the last large… Whatever it is made of one and it’s 3 ounces
The USPS first class mail rates for large envelopes are. Below. Just saying. I realize they might not actually fit but they aren’t that thick.
Large Envelopes (Flats)2
Weight Not Over (oz.)
1 $1.35
2 1.59 3 1.83
4 2.07
@dave@Kidsandliz well… Assuming the bags could even qualify. They have the cost of the bag and the cost of packaging. And if it’s that tiny white useless bag. No thanks.
Just was hoping the a comeback. But the new model may be a goner
@dave@Kidsandliz but yes that was the point. How about a sideals sale or something where we could choose to use the coupon to get the thing we thought we were buying… To just get the thing we met to buy?
@dave@Kidsandliz@unksol Mine hasn’t arrived yet so MAYBE I’m a later one who got a bag but… if not it’s my first IRK, Irk and the bag were my main sellers!
Box of expired corn snacks
Hand sanitizer
15" Macbook cover
a box containing 12 3 packs of TrackR pixel
Irk ran off as soon as I opened the box, time to go keep him out of trouble now.
There was a set of king sheets but I’m tall/California king. I basically just dump the irk box into the pile of trackers/phone rings and extract the bag. No bag. Mehbe time to stop since our highpoint is toy bumpercars. How many pallets of tracrs did you buy? They are like packing foam now
Something good, something meh and MOTHER OF GOD AND EVERYTHING HOLY WHY DO THESE STILL EXIST???!!!
The Irk of course
A nice set of bath towels with bath mat and scrubby glove. These actually match my bathrooms.
semi useless Macbook cover
Hand Sanitizer, I regret picking the free one up at Morning Save a few weeks ago since this is the third bottle I have gotten in an IRK
Two Phone rings, I actually need one since I gave all of them away at the last garage sale. I have a new phone and need to put one on one of the covers.
Thirty TrackR pixels destined for the electronic recycling box. ~ Seriously, the warehouse staff needs to mark last box of these miniature doorstops when they are packed in the last IRK. Just so that we know that there are truly none left on the planet.
I didn’t even notice that the bag was missing so thanks for the coupon code
~ Seriously, the warehouse staff needs to mark last box of these miniature doorstops when they are packed in the last IRK. Just so that we know that there are truly none left on the planet.
I think they need to post a special announcement, with a photo of the box as the last TrackRs go in, and a link to a Youtube video of Hit The Road, Jack
But. Just send me the thing I bought… I’m probably just asking for a paper bad in an envelope with irk written on it which would fulfill the base requirement… So meh…
@ironcheftoni Plot twist… meh purchased the app rights to the supposedly defunct trackr and is deviously awaiting the deployment of the final trojan-discs before reactivating the software and controlling its army of fools- um- er- mehnions throughout the glooobe*!
@ironcheftoni@jester747 so they can track my house? That they already have the address to. In the one spot that all… 50? Of them sit in?
Any useful thoughts? They were always a bad idea.
A doent get your stuff stolen. B if you do you might. Maybe. Get an intermittent ping once in a great while if someone else was using the app and connected to sharing their Bluetooth and location… Really!!!
Two pairs of yoga pants, one apparently size Tiny and the other size Small, neither marked as far as I could tell.
One preposterously wide and impractically short turtleneck thing in a sweater knit, with short sleeves, marked O/S, which I assume is supposed to convey One Size Fits No Actual Human Being But It’s What We Made
An Irk
An actual Quip toothbrush (!)
An uncountable number of holes in the fabric of spacetime containing absolutely not a single TrackR, Casery phone accessory, bottle of craft paint, car charger, or wall decor sticker set. I have no explanation for this. It boggles the mind, truly.
@OnionSoup More likely, it’ll be a pallet of the cheezy-vegan flavored Love Corn. With an entire pallet of TrackRs, I might be tempted to acid-wash the gold leaf out of them.
I LOVE thematic IRKs! Today’s theme is weekend get away. There is a tote bag with matching makeup bag and toiletries bag. A quip toothbrush (which rocks because I missed out on the quip debacle… now I can pretend I was there.) A soft turtleneck sweater, a couple hand towels and a sweet lil guy to snuggle with when I’m away from home.
Floor Police Motorized Mop with pads. And no charger. (looks like it uses an 18650 Li-Ion cell)
31 TrackR pixels
7 packs of Love Corn snacks.
1 Shiny gold-tone cell phone grip.
1 Irk plushie hermetically sealed in a plastic bag, turned purple from anoxia, mouth open and gasping desperately for air, eyes bugged out from the last effort to break free. The horror.
@juststephen the plushie. I see naked cats every day!
Got a 16lb boy who had to get his entire rear end shaved recently. Seen smaller cats where that has been done, it’s not nearly as disturbing looking as a 16lb kitty with a shaved rear end.
@juststephen@Kyeh@unksol cat had problems peeing, had to clear him out so he could pee probably so could tape catheter to his belly… At least I hope the shaving was necessary and they didn’t just trim his butt for no reason.
@juststephen@Kyeh@OnionSoup had a urethra block onece with KitKat and I’m told I overpaid for him in/situation but. Bleeding out your dick. So. I don’t recall the shaving since they cut him open but. Ya know. I feel you.
On the other hand I am just tempted by Jack jacks big furry ass
Now that Meh has hopefully run off most of the hurty-butt people who like to complain, things are looking more random! This IRK was super speedy and actually full of some awe! (Stay down, bot.)
Mukluks ladies boots, white with knit tops, size 9
Ladies black on black Andreas Osten Tidlos watch
2x definitely not stolen Quip toothbrushes (never forget)
A Kitchen Cube measure-all! I’ve actually wanted one of these. I was going to 3D print one but it wouldn’t be food safe. Now that I have it in my hand, it actually looks fairly impractical and is a perfect microcosm of joy and regret all in one box.
One Irk, properly asphyxiated. These bags are not toys, people!
24 x 2 oz multi-surface premium chalky acrylic paint, color Native Turquoise
10 x Phillips Respironics OptiChamber Diamond anti-static valved holding chamber for use with metered dose inhalers
30 x TrackR pixel
12 x Value 2 pack i essentials Universal Car Charger (one black, one silver per pack)
1 x Irk, hermetically sealed for his own protection
Not up to photographing. Yet another case of those gods be damned TrackRs, a teensy pair of spandex leggings, a denim shirt many sizes too small for me, three bottles of craft paint and one asphyxiated Irk.
After reading the previously posted commens, I fully expected to get another pack.of Trackrs and more of the same stuff from the last box. I didn’t but there was plenty of regret to go around anyway.
I got:
1 Irk plushie. I think most people were probably divided between two camps: “I got this IRK because of the plushie,” and “I got this IRK despite the plushie.”. I’m solidly in the second camp, but Mr. Irk will join a box full of screaming monkeys so he won’t be lonely.
1 pink Studio Dry turban hair towel. I shave my head - no use for this.
1 Tanborat costume jewelry bracelet. In a small velvet pouch. The bracelet had fallen out of the pouch and gotten itself buried under something else so at first I thought that the pouch was the IRK bag. Too cheesy for me to ever want to give it to somebody.
1 package of two Turkish cotton hand towels, white with blue stripes. Probably won’t use these for their intended purpose, but extra towels always come in handy eventually.
1 Saiji Cell Phone and Tablet stand. Not quite sure what to say about this thing. It seems to be pretty well made and heavy duty, but it’s really way too big for anything I’m likely to do with it. It seems like it would be maybe useful for a business who wanted to use an old tablet as a display unit.
All in all, moderate regret. Nothing I’ll likely use, but at least no more Trackrs!
Not completely regrettable…I think I got the Wamsutta bath sheets to go with the hand towels posted above . Also got a cardinal vacuum seal bag?? And 3 of the Quip toothbrushes (if they’re stolen I really don’t want to know) but I don’t know how they work…
@llangley My last box had a Quip toothbrush in it. I gave it to my daughter but it would not turn on, found out I just needed to replace the battery. Once we did that she was super excited and loves it!
This irk is pretty good.
1-irk plushie (I already have one, but that’s cool)
1-pair of slippers in my size (wearing now)
1-pink/peach winter hat (son won’t steal this one)
1-flameless candle (I’ll check it out, and probably give it away)
3-hand creams (I have dry hands!)
1-cleansing balm (I’ll try it)
1-3d volumizing mask (weird, but I do have a face)
And yes, I need to remove the dog hair from the couch, but she will just be snoozing up there again later today. She’s already eyeballed the slippers for chewing and licked my lotioned hands.
@Kyeh@llangley@remo28 if you think that amount of dog is bad… Well… I guess you’re lucky. I had to look for it lol. We don’t need to go there/see my couch. Pants. Coat. Desk. Tv… You get the idea
@misfitsintoylnd
Very nice. I got a returned robot vac once and was so overjoyed until I realized it wouldn’t work, customer service was shit and it was garbage.
@misfitsintoylnd@Star2236 to be fair. When it’s me, robot vacuum is a tossup and id assume more a can you make it work/would have no support. I have one sitting here a few months that is definitely open box but I hope works
@misfitsintoylnd@Star2236 i already had a $99 one that was working i bought from meh. so I just kinda put it to the side at first/was thinking about giving it to someone if it worked. And the cats were constantly knocking that one off the charger/road on it. Then the battery died so I tried to fix that one before delving into another potentially broke one.
But yes I need to pick up the entire house and see if it will work. Might cut down on the fuzz a tiny bit. There’s some other issues with the fur monsters too/ things getting under the couches that needs addressed. Old one used to get under and stuck. Need to get the miter saw out…to block it and one of the cat. Etc etc.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Received today!
Irk Plush - will need to hide from the dog.
3 pack of Folkart cobalt blues enamel glass paint.
1 Maidenform Flexees - will see if my Mom wants them.
1 Argan Oil Infused Hairband - will get used.
1 super sized (think tall laundry basket) rope/woven basket from “store smith” a brand from HSN. Tag says 17.75”x 17.75”x 25” - will get used.
No complaints. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, it’s all a game and it’s fun to play!
I was seriously nervous about opening this box. I always expect regret. And even when I get regret I’m not mad. I truly feel you have no business buying one if you’re going to get angry. It’s in the name…… anywho. I was busy designing a drying rack for coasters that I’m about to varnish for a large commission when the doggos went nuts. Que knots in stomach. I brought the box into the faux murdershed ie my garage and it sat for a while.
After some peer pressure from @phrog I decided to open it and I was actually quite relieved! It wasn’t really at all terrible! Well maybe some of the trackers but the rest was a bit of alright which makes up for my last one.
And before everyone gets in a tizzy about the bloody bag, it’s from my last box or one of the many and is holding the previous mentioned coasters.
@PHRoG I was planning on making a dip and crushing those up and sprinkling them on top. But I’ve donated so much hand sanitizer to school it’s silly!
I’m thankful for a few of the things I got. One of the families at our school just lost their dad. He was their primary income source and they have 8 kids. A couple of the things I got are actually on some of the kids’ Christmas wishlists that we’re trying to fill so that’s super awesome!
@sillyheathen
I should list what I got
Explorer3 smartwatch
3 ladies sports bras
Facial thingy
Love corn
Laptop case
12 days board book
Beanie
Trackers
Irk plushie
@sillyheathen yeaaah, you might wanna taste that stuff first before you go and ruin your dip!!! It’s TERRIBLE!
I’m a fan of just about anything smothered in cheese and was so excited when I ordered the variety pack when it was offered because I also love corn nuts.
Turns out is some vegan, plant-based, cheese dust and it’s absolutely disgusting!
I think we are all winners with the plushie alone!! Thank goodness, because aside from the stuffie I received:
10 x Phillips Respironics OptiChamber Diamond anti-static valved holding chamber for use with metered dose inhalers - my daughter has an inhaler so we will try these and see.
1 case of 30 Trackrs
5 Casery Ring/Stands
One of my worst ever. A box of pixel trackrs, a pile of screen protectors for iPhone 6-8, another box of glitter leaf paint, two bottles of sketchy off-brand hand sanitizer, and the stuffed irk. Exactly zero use for any of it.
I’m forever chasing the high from getting a chromebook. The only other time that has had anything of real value was when I got some Cuisinart cookware.
In other words, exactly as advertised, and I’ll see you all next time.
@drewesque so you’ve already hit the lottery twice… …best I’ve ever had (and was really happy with them) were on two separate occasions getting vacuum sealer machines. Runner up is a fancy hair dryer (cheapest I saw retail was $100) that my youngest used frequently for several years (until one day it caught fire…no harm.done though… Through out onto driveway).
Cuisinart just about anything would be a big win for me.
@OnionSoup well, the chromebook turned out not to work, but, yeah, I have had a couple times of good luck. But I have probably spent a lot more on these than I have gotten value. It’s always fun, no matter how rare the good ones are.
@drewesque this was my box to a tee…what is faster than instant regret, because thats where I am…i have had a lot of hits but this miss offset them by a lot
I just looked up what I paid for the Trackr Pixel indiegogo - $100 for a box of 10. I didn’t get this IRK but karmically I probably should have. Their poor battery life (and/or poor capacity generic batteries) was their achilles heel; whenever you need them to function, they’re already dead.
(A reminder: if you actually have use for a TrackR for a few months, they still kinda work with the SwiftFinder app. Without as much of a network of other users, they’re more for the “last seen at” feature if you leave something behind, rather than for something like theft.)
@brainmist Yes. Fooled me too. Mine was hefty but I got what you got except, take away 30 TrackRs (light) and add 24 bottles of glitter paint (heavy), and you’ve got something that takes two hands to carry into the house.
Worst irk ever! I didn’t even post the last 2 bc they were bad but this one is super shitty. Usually the December box is good bc it’s like Xmas to us but I guess meh is skipping that this year.
Anyway I think my box was the exact same as someone a few post above. A box of trakers-garbage, 2 boxes of expired hand sanitizer- brothers work, a bunch of old phone cases- brothers work, a case of craft paint- brothers work and irk plushie- cool. And go figure I bought it for the bag lol
My brother works with low income people he’s a psychologist so anything gimmicky like the screen protectors, cases, phone rings (all my unused irk stuff) he hands out to his patients like Oprah. “You get a prize and you get a prize” so @dave you send me cases, a whole pallet of that stuff and it will get put to get use. As the low income people really do need the stuff. But you gotta send me a least something semi cool too and NO TRACKER!
@Star2236 Thats what I do with all that excess irk stuff too, working with homless and at-risk youth. I can find someone that can use just about anything and everything…much better than just throwing stuff away!
My box was basically the same as steeltoesenator, execpt i got iphone 8 screen protectors. Box of trackrs, hand sanitizer and the case of “native turquoise” chalk paint.
First-time IRK-er here! Imagine my excitement opening the box in front of my children, hoping to show them how a real man handles soul-crushing disappointment. Contents: Irk stuffie, kn95 masks, hand sanitizer, love corn, casery phone grip/stand, and 15" MacBook pro case. NOT BAD! So glad no trackr or paint!
@Kidsandliz Yeah, weird. It worked earlier. And I can’t update my post now. Oh well. But I did end up hanging it in our yard! Let’s see how long before the wife finds it, lol.
Thank you Meh! No regrets here.
1- apron
1-watch. Came without a box, not sure what kind is it, we’ll see if it works after charge.
1- security camera set
1- mesh door screen
1- Meh plushy
Thank you!!
I cackled as I opened this IRK. There’s actually some good things in here, if you’re not me. There’s a Citrus Juicer (I’m allergic to citrus fruits). The snacks are all spicy, also something I can’t eat. I don’t own a Mac laptop and never will. There’s two sweaters, size Extra Small and 3x, I’m somewhere in-between. I use those kinds of phone grips but I prefer that they be a part of my phone case so they don’t fall off while I’m carrying my phone with it. I’ll add the hand sanitizer to the gallon jug of the stuff we never use.
If the batteries aren’t dead, I’ll use the trackers. And IRK is actually a pretty good stuffy, I’m pleased with him. I’ll add him to my collection of Internet Celebrity plushies. I already have Grumpy Cat and Boo the Dog (both sadly dead).
Anyone want the citrus juicer for the price of shipping?
@Fuzzalini I guess everything in my IRK is useless to me. Totally living up to it’s promises!! I swore I would never buy one again, I only bought this because of the irk.
A message on its website says, “We regret to inform you that TrackR will no longer be supported on Apple or Android devices after August 15, 2021. We want to thank you for your trust and support throughout the years. We hope TrackR was the perfect resolution for finding your lost items.”Sep 22, 2021
Welp, that’s it for me. Last IRK I bought the Belvita things, had the worst case of heartburn later that day. $20 down the drain.
Then this IRK, I got the same crap I got the time before (trackers, hand sanitizer). Last time we got an auto battery charger (nice), this time I got some acrylic paint and a tablet case.
The Irk plushie is nice, but not worth $32.33.
So, I guess I’m done with Irks. Not Mehrathons, but the instant regret kit? Yeah, no mas for moi.
1 quip toothbrush - to go with my toothbrush coin I got in an IRK like 3 years ago
1 travel pillow (awesome, my secret Santa wants “anything travel related!”)
1 irk my kids were fighting over
2 sweaters size small - one was worn to church today by my kiddo it fits. Looks nice on her. I’m keeping the other one
Overall a decent IRK, thanks Meh!
I got a big massager box, with a massager and other stuff crammed inside. My wife will try the massager. A robe and a hoodie that are too small for me but will fit my wife. A pop-up hamper, and of course, I got an IRK plushie.
The cat went straight for the black hoodie during the photo shoot. My wife is wearing it with the fashionable cat hair. The tag says “fashionable jeans”, I that is either a brand name or the tag is on the wrong garment.
So my wife did really well with this IRK. I scored more than enough husband points to make this worthwhile.
@mikibell i also got 66 trackRs. I dont think i can justify spending more than $5 anymore… i used to get sheet sets, an occasional shark vacuum, kitchen small appliances… now i get trackRs. 66 of them. To add to the hundreds i already have. And gold phone holders. And cases and cases of acrylic paints, and hand sanitizer. The novelty has worn off.
I’m not at all dissatisfied with my irk. I want a refund. I expected utter crap and I did not get that. Well, maybe some crap. Not sure what we’ll do with the wrinkle eraser syringe. But I think I’ll use the rest.
Do I win for “most TrackRs”? This irk was even worse than the last few… 3 more gold phone ring grips to add to the dozen+ I already have, a 15" MacBook pro hardshell that I don’t have (but I do have at least 3 other 15" hardshells, plus 4 or 5 of the smaller neoprene zipper ones). Stuffie (at least I don’t have one of these already), a 10 piece box of expired vegan cheezy corn nut-type treats, and 66… yes, 66 trackRs. A 30 pc box of singles, and a 12 count box of 3 packs. I probably have gotten a good 300+ of these over the years of irks. Makes me wish for more cases of paint like the last several irks… for $30 minimum for this trash, these have made me really not want to even risk it anymore. Go back to these being $5, and it might be worth the risk.
Aside from the requisite Irk, I got one of these (black color):
One of these (doesn’t appear to have ever actually been sold around these parts):
And some girly low-cut socks.
The items appeared to be open-box, but unused. Will probably donate them to friends.
Things seem to be slightly better this time around, but lots of people still got worthless garbage. If they continue to sell these things for $20+ (after refunds), I’m not seeing much value. They need to either up the quality, or drop the price to make it worthwhile to gamble on these things.
@OnionSoup Mine never shipped, so thus never arrived, had to email support, they put in a new order. So already starting with regret and haven’t even received my regret. I’m sure it’ll extra regrettable!
This came a couple of days ago but I didn’t have time to photo and post it. Sorry meh.
Irk
Walmart shoes size 8.5. Not my size although I wouldn’t be caught dead in them even if they were. Each to their own I guess or maybe that is why meh has them .
JVC ear buds wireless that were opened but appear to have not been used and likely my kid will get for christmas.
solar windchime - that needs to be used far away from anyone’s ears as possible since it will ring 100% of the time going in a circle and drive everyone crazy.
Light gray t-shirt Fruit of the Loom brand (that didn’t make the photo because I forgot about it when I took the photo - opps) Woman’s XL that may have been a mismarked size as it is about the same as a medium in real life, extra tight slim fit at that (didn’t know they were way off with their sizing). I don’t do the low budget lady of the night skin tight look. I’ll find it a home.
Thanks meh - especially because no trackers, no rings for phones, no parts to things I don’t have, no expired anything, nothing broken… and I want to spend my $5 coupon on a meh bag. Please allow us to do that!
@Star2236 Yes they are truly ugly. And it is hard to tell from the photo but there are tacky pink colored balls stuck on along the black and where you put your foot in and an ugly gold colored thing the laces go through. Truly gross. I doubt I could even sell them for $5. I’d probably have to pay someone to take them. Although who knows plenty of stuff sells that in a million years I wouldn’t buy, wear or be caught dead with in my apartment, car or on me. Walmart charges $30 something for them. I’m going to list them for $10 or best offer and see what happens.
@Kidsandliz The XL FotL shirt is probably what Alpha-Broder lists as style IC47WR, and yeah, MUCH narrower than the “unisex” tee. I wear that XL as a “very fitted” tee, gladly.
I don’t know how to post the pics so here is my list
No bag
1 irk
3 Casery phone grip & stand
10 Love Corn snack bags (expired but very good)
20 pack KN95 masks
1 incase textured hardshell for Ipad 15" which I don’t own
Trackrs - between this IRK and the last one I have 96 trackrs. At first it was kind of cute and quirky, now I scream into my pillow every night until I fall asleep
@jmruru Use the masks. I know of more than a few who have contracted Covid within the past two months. Don’t kid yourself, Covid is alive and well. Those that are “sharing,” well they walk among us for 'tis the season of giving, dontchaknowed?
I got something I can use, along with my additional furry Irk! This comforter is CA-King size, but I tried it on my queen bed and quite like it. I’m always annoyed at how queen-size bed covers are so short. The fabric is a nice linen-cotton blend, with actual embroidery on it.
No Trackrs either, just a couple of phone ringy thingies which I kind of like. One of the weird white Mediocre bags as well.
I didn’t bother taking a picture. I got a case of inhaler nebulizers, a medium sized pair of granny compression panties, and 6 two-packs of USB-A cigarette lighter chargers. The plushie is great though!
Sorry. This is a little late. So late, in fact, I’m waiting for my next IRK from January 10th meh-ration. Oh well, here goes.
1 IRK plushie born January 9, 2014
12 2 pack iessentials car chargers
1 15” MacBook Pro case
30 blue TrackRs - my favourite color
24 bottles of Native Turquoise Premium Chalky acrylic paint
Very meh. But hey, loves the anticipation. It’s better than opening a Cracker Jack box and finding a prize that’s a piece of paper that needs a smart phone to scan in the QR code.
@customers (reposting from the deal thread)
The good news is we got these IRKs shipped out faster than expected! The bad news? They shipped out before our printed IRK bags arrived.
Basically we were out of IRK bags, did a rush order, and then I didn’t communicate with the warehouse staff thoroughly to make sure they held the orders until the bags arrived. So…we’re getting bags tomorrow, while many of the IRKs shipped yesterday and today.
So that sucks. I’ve set you all up with a $5 off coupon for Meh: ALLIRKNOBAG (expires 12/31/2024 - the end of next year)
Feel free to post photos of your new Irk stuffie griping about the lack of a bag. We’re getting enough bags ahead of time that this shouldn’t happen again. Sorry about that.
@dave
/image Thank you Dave
@dave but… I wanted the bag lol. Even though the last few were dupes. And the last irk bag was just this small white thing which I can’t put groceries or anything in… was hoping that was a one off and we’d get a useful one at least.
Also if you noticed… The last irk was bad. Now no bag? Me sad.
Also I just weighed the last large… Whatever it is made of one and it’s 3 ounces
The USPS first class mail rates for large envelopes are. Below. Just saying. I realize they might not actually fit but they aren’t that thick.
Large Envelopes (Flats)2
Weight Not Over (oz.)

@dave @unksol And we can
usesacrifice our $5 coupon for this and meh should come out ahead.@dave @Kidsandliz well… Assuming the bags could even qualify. They have the cost of the bag and the cost of packaging. And if it’s that tiny white useless bag. No thanks.
Just was hoping the a comeback. But the new model may be a goner
@dave @Kidsandliz but yes that was the point. How about a sideals sale or something where we could choose to use the coupon to get the thing we thought we were buying… To just get the thing we met to buy?
@dave @unksol Yes. Let us use the coupon to buy the irk bag when they come in. Pretty Please???
@dave @Kidsandliz @unksol Mine hasn’t arrived yet so MAYBE I’m a later one who got a bag but… if not it’s my first IRK, Irk and the bag were my main sellers!
Expired snacks and trackers.
Do they not include the bags any more?
@clonetek See Dave’s message above, about the bags.
SO YOUR IRK CAME WITH BUMPERCARS TO RIDE?!??
So lucky!
That’s terrifying and fantastic.
I think Irk will stay in the bag until I get a bag. lol
@clonetek I hope he can hold his breath until next mehrathon.
@clonetek @sammydog01 He’s already turned blue. Er, blueish.
That picture gave me a good laugh. Not only was Irk asphyxiated in a bag, his corpse was put on display to haunt you.
Box of expired corn snacks
Hand sanitizer
15" Macbook cover
a box containing 12 3 packs of TrackR pixel
Irk ran off as soon as I opened the box, time to go keep him out of trouble now.
@owlhooter Don’t get him wet.
@owlhooter Nice, now I don’t have to post a picture. Mine was identical except I got another box of 30 individual trackers.
@owlhooter same package here but 5 phone grips instead of hand sanitizer!
@owlhooter Ditto plus a phone ring… would have loved some bath towels…
@owlhooter @pbirgel I mean my MacBook cover was only 13"
There was a set of king sheets but I’m tall/California king. I basically just dump the irk box into the pile of trackers/phone rings and extract the bag. No bag. Mehbe time to stop since our highpoint is toy bumpercars. How many pallets of tracrs did you buy? They are like packing foam now
Doesn’t look like this IRK was any better than the last several so far.
I better intersect mine when it arrives and open it without my wife seeing or those eyebrows might be raised menacingly.
Something good, something meh and MOTHER OF GOD AND EVERYTHING HOLY WHY DO THESE STILL EXIST???!!!
The Irk of course
A nice set of bath towels with bath mat and scrubby glove. These actually match my bathrooms.
semi useless Macbook cover
Hand Sanitizer, I regret picking the free one up at Morning Save a few weeks ago since this is the third bottle I have gotten in an IRK
Two Phone rings, I actually need one since I gave all of them away at the last garage sale. I have a new phone and need to put one on one of the covers.
Thirty TrackR pixels destined for the electronic recycling box. ~ Seriously, the warehouse staff needs to mark last box of these miniature doorstops when they are packed in the last IRK. Just so that we know that there are truly none left on the planet.
I didn’t even notice that the bag was missing so thanks for the coupon code
@ironcheftoni You can never have too many towels. (At least it’s hard to have too many towels.)
@ironcheftoni
I think they need to post a special announcement, with a photo of the box as the last TrackRs go in, and a link to a Youtube video of Hit The Road, Jack
@ironcheftoni @werehatrack also maybe fill it with confetti and party favors to celebrate the end of an era.
@ironcheftoni @tinamarie1974 @werehatrack THEY SHOULD GOLD PLATE THE LAST TRACKR THEY SEND OUT
Seriously. End of an era. Someone should receive a special gold-plated trackr. The last Trackr received wins.
@ironcheftoni you got a coupon code for not having a bag?
@ironcheftoni HAHAHA you want more phone rings? I have at least a dozen if not more. Postage and they are yours.
@Kidsandliz no thank you!!
@ironcheftoni What? You don’t want a life time supply?
@Gutterpunkz @ironcheftoni @dave posted a $5 coupon up top. It’s tied to your account if you bought an IRK
ALLIRKNOBAG
But. Just send me the thing I bought… I’m probably just asking for a paper bad in an envelope with irk written on it which would fulfill the base requirement… So meh…
@ironcheftoni Plot twist… meh purchased the app rights to the supposedly defunct trackr and is deviously awaiting the deployment of the final trojan-discs before reactivating the software and controlling its army of fools- um- er- mehnions throughout the glooobe*!
*by “globe” I mean just the USA of course.
@ironcheftoni @jester747 so they can track my house? That they already have the address to. In the one spot that all… 50? Of them sit in?
Any useful thoughts? They were always a bad idea.
A doent get your stuff stolen. B if you do you might. Maybe. Get an intermittent ping once in a great while if someone else was using the app and connected to sharing their Bluetooth and location… Really!!!
Mine arrived. It contains:
@werehatrack no trackr? No Casey? No paint? Not even any expired food?
That means you’re overdue next time and need to get the trackr pallet.
@OnionSoup More likely, it’ll be a pallet of the cheezy-vegan flavored Love Corn. With an entire pallet of TrackRs, I might be tempted to acid-wash the gold leaf out of them.
@OnionSoup @werehatrack What do cheezy vegans taste like?
@blaineg @werehatrack instant regret
@werehatrack oh the quip toothbrush! I was a part of that fiasco a few years ago! LOL we were all committed! That was great!
@membrr @werehatrack this is suspicious. I want to be hopeful they ran out of tracrs. I suspect someone just didn’t want to get the next pallet down
I LOVE thematic IRKs! Today’s theme is weekend get away. There is a tote bag with matching makeup bag and toiletries bag. A quip toothbrush (which rocks because I missed out on the quip debacle… now I can pretend I was there.) A soft turtleneck sweater, a couple hand towels and a sweet lil guy to snuggle with when I’m away from home.
Irk IRK.
Contents:
The battery is a two-cell 18650 pack.
@PocketBrain Mechanism appears to be broken. Pressing the button gets a light, but no motion. Will take it apart.
Collapsible snow shovel.
Irk stuffy.
Kn95 masks (three years expired)
Expired hand sanitizer
30 TrackRs.
Collapsible fabric snow shovel thing. It doesn’t snow in coastal Georgia.
Cat shirt for a smaller cat than 21lb Simba.
@juststephen ahhhhhh! Nudity!!! My poor virgin eyes have just seen a naked troll!!!
@OnionSoup
The Irk plushie or the cat?
@juststephen the plushie. I see naked cats every day!
Got a 16lb boy who had to get his entire rear end shaved recently. Seen smaller cats where that has been done, it’s not nearly as disturbing looking as a 16lb kitty with a shaved rear end.
@juststephen Irk PORN!!!
@juststephen 21 pounds?
He’s a cutie! But he doesn’t look like he’s enjoying that shirt.
@Kyeh He didn’t know what to think of it. He wasn’t upset, just very unsure.
@juststephen It looks cute, like a bandana.
@juststephen @Kyeh lol, I read that as “banana” first, and was thinking you meant it was a banana cat for scale.
“Bandana” makes more sense.
@juststephen @xobzoo
/giphy banana cat
@juststephen @OnionSoup slowly reaches for the whal
@juststephen @OnionSoup @unksol
What’s a whal?
@juststephen @Kyeh @OnionSoup
/image whal
Since they were shaving cat rear ends and I’m slightly curious. Probably only get one pass
@juststephen @Kyeh @unksol cat had problems peeing, had to clear him out so he could pee probably so could tape catheter to his belly… At least I hope the shaving was necessary and they didn’t just trim his butt for no reason.
@juststephen @OnionSoup @unksol
Oh. Okay. That’s actually “Wahl”
but I still didn’t get it until you explained!
@juststephen @Kyeh @OnionSoup had a urethra block onece with KitKat and I’m told I overpaid for him in/situation but. Bleeding out your dick. So. I don’t recall the shaving since they cut him open but. Ya know. I feel you.
On the other hand I am just tempted by Jack jacks big furry ass
Now that Meh has hopefully run off most of the hurty-butt people who like to complain, things are looking more random! This IRK was super speedy and actually full of some awe! (Stay down, bot.)
Thanks, Meh!
@djslack Mukluks!
Galoshes!
24 x 2 oz multi-surface premium chalky acrylic paint, color Native Turquoise
10 x Phillips Respironics OptiChamber Diamond anti-static valved holding chamber for use with metered dose inhalers
30 x TrackR pixel
12 x Value 2 pack i essentials Universal Car Charger (one black, one silver per pack)
1 x Irk, hermetically sealed for his own protection
@anottuh You got a case of medical products? That’s pretty random.
@anottuh Those are some fancy inhaler spacers.
I got a box of martha stewart glitter paint, 3 pink acrylic paint,box 9f kn95 masks, box of trackrs and 2 incase 13" macbook cases
https://imgur.com/gallery/Z5BnLID
Also i dont know how to post an image apparently
Not up to photographing. Yet another case of those gods be damned TrackRs, a teensy pair of spandex leggings, a denim shirt many sizes too small for me, three bottles of craft paint and one asphyxiated Irk.
After reading the previously posted commens, I fully expected to get another pack.of Trackrs and more of the same stuff from the last box. I didn’t but there was plenty of regret to go around anyway.
I got:
1 Irk plushie. I think most people were probably divided between two camps: “I got this IRK because of the plushie,” and “I got this IRK despite the plushie.”. I’m solidly in the second camp, but Mr. Irk will join a box full of screaming monkeys so he won’t be lonely.
1 pink Studio Dry turban hair towel. I shave my head - no use for this.
1 Tanborat costume jewelry bracelet. In a small velvet pouch. The bracelet had fallen out of the pouch and gotten itself buried under something else so at first I thought that the pouch was the IRK bag. Too cheesy for me to ever want to give it to somebody.
1 package of two Turkish cotton hand towels, white with blue stripes. Probably won’t use these for their intended purpose, but extra towels always come in handy eventually.
1 Saiji Cell Phone and Tablet stand. Not quite sure what to say about this thing. It seems to be pretty well made and heavy duty, but it’s really way too big for anything I’m likely to do with it. It seems like it would be maybe useful for a business who wanted to use an old tablet as a display unit.
All in all, moderate regret. Nothing I’ll likely use, but at least no more Trackrs!
Not completely regrettable…I think I got the Wamsutta bath sheets to go with the hand towels posted above
. Also got a cardinal vacuum seal bag?? And 3 of the Quip toothbrushes (if they’re stolen I really don’t want to know) but I don’t know how they work…
And the IRK stuffed toy!
Thanks Meh!!
@llangley My last box had a Quip toothbrush in it. I gave it to my daughter but it would not turn on, found out I just needed to replace the battery. Once we did that she was super excited and loves it!
This irk is pretty good.
1-irk plushie (I already have one, but that’s cool)
1-pair of slippers in my size (wearing now)
1-pink/peach winter hat (son won’t steal this one)
1-flameless candle (I’ll check it out, and probably give it away)
3-hand creams (I have dry hands!)
1-cleansing balm (I’ll try it)
1-3d volumizing mask (weird, but I do have a face)
And yes, I need to remove the dog hair from the couch, but she will just be snoozing up there again later today. She’s already eyeballed the slippers for chewing and licked my lotioned hands.
@remo28 ummm…it’s called "fur"niture for reasons…
@remo28
Yours was pretty good.
@llangley @remo28
Oh, I love that!
@Kyeh @llangley @remo28 if you think that amount of dog is bad… Well… I guess you’re lucky. I had to look for it lol. We don’t need to go there/see my couch. Pants. Coat. Desk. Tv… You get the idea
I was surprised to see how huge the box was when it arrived. The contents:
Irk stuffie
3 bottles of blue enamel glass paint
Argan oil headband
And an iHome auto vac eclipse pro!! Currently charging and in working order.
I’ve been very lucky and blessed with the few irks I’ve gotten. Thank you Meh
@misfitsintoylnd
Very nice. I got a returned robot vac once and was so overjoyed until I realized it wouldn’t work, customer service was shit and it was garbage.
@misfitsintoylnd @Star2236 to be fair. When it’s me, robot vacuum is a tossup and id assume more a can you make it work/would have no support. I have one sitting here a few months that is definitely open box but I hope works
@misfitsintoylnd @unksol
It’s been sitting there months but you haven’t seen if it works?
@misfitsintoylnd @Star2236 i already had a $99 one that was working i bought from meh. so I just kinda put it to the side at first/was thinking about giving it to someone if it worked. And the cats were constantly knocking that one off the charger/road on it. Then the battery died so I tried to fix that one before delving into another potentially broke one.
But yes I need to pick up the entire house and see if it will work. Might cut down on the fuzz a tiny bit. There’s some other issues with the fur monsters too/ things getting under the couches that needs addressed. Old one used to get under and stuck. Need to get the miter saw out…to block it and one of the cat. Etc etc.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Received today!
Irk Plush - will need to hide from the dog.
3 pack of Folkart cobalt blues enamel glass paint.
1 Maidenform Flexees - will see if my Mom wants them.
1 Argan Oil Infused Hairband - will get used.
1 super sized (think tall laundry basket) rope/woven basket from “store smith” a brand from HSN. Tag says 17.75”x 17.75”x 25” - will get used.
No complaints. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, it’s all a game and it’s fun to play!
I was seriously nervous about opening this box. I always expect regret. And even when I get regret I’m not mad. I truly feel you have no business buying one if you’re going to get angry. It’s in the name…… anywho. I was busy designing a drying rack for coasters that I’m about to varnish for a large commission when the doggos went nuts. Que knots in stomach. I brought the box into the faux murdershed ie my garage and it sat for a while.
After some peer pressure from @phrog I decided to open it and I was actually quite relieved! It wasn’t really at all terrible! Well maybe some of the trackers but the rest was a bit of alright which makes up for my last one.
And before everyone gets in a tizzy about the bloody bag, it’s from my last box or one of the many and is holding the previous mentioned coasters.
@sillyheathen I’ll trade ya a case of trackers and 4 boxes of expired hand sanitizer for your disgusting cheese corn!
@PHRoG
I was planning on making a dip and crushing those up and sprinkling them on top. But I’ve donated so much hand sanitizer to school it’s silly!
I’m thankful for a few of the things I got. One of the families at our school just lost their dad. He was their primary income source and they have 8 kids. A couple of the things I got are actually on some of the kids’ Christmas wishlists that we’re trying to fill so that’s super awesome!
HIKING! VIKINGS! STRIKE KING [BRAND FISHING LURES]! AWESOME!
@sillyheathen
I should list what I got
Explorer3 smartwatch
3 ladies sports bras
Facial thingy
Love corn
Laptop case
12 days board book
Beanie
Trackers
Irk plushie
@sillyheathen yeaaah, you might wanna taste that stuff first before you go and ruin your dip!!! It’s TERRIBLE!
I’m a fan of just about anything smothered in cheese and was so excited when I ordered the variety pack when it was offered because I also love corn nuts.
Turns out is some vegan, plant-based, cheese dust and it’s absolutely disgusting!
Pure evil!
@PHRoG oh I’m most definitely going to taste them first!
I think we are all winners with the plushie alone!! Thank goodness, because aside from the stuffie I received:
10 x Phillips Respironics OptiChamber Diamond anti-static valved holding chamber for use with metered dose inhalers - my daughter has an inhaler so we will try these and see.
1 case of 30 Trackrs
5 Casery Ring/Stands
Onward and Upward!!
One of my worst ever. A box of pixel trackrs, a pile of screen protectors for iPhone 6-8, another box of glitter leaf paint, two bottles of sketchy off-brand hand sanitizer, and the stuffed irk. Exactly zero use for any of it.
I’m forever chasing the high from getting a chromebook. The only other time that has had anything of real value was when I got some Cuisinart cookware.
In other words, exactly as advertised, and I’ll see you all next time.
@drewesque so you’ve already hit the lottery twice… …best I’ve ever had (and was really happy with them) were on two separate occasions getting vacuum sealer machines. Runner up is a fancy hair dryer (cheapest I saw retail was $100) that my youngest used frequently for several years (until one day it caught fire…no harm.done though… Through out onto driveway).
Cuisinart just about anything would be a big win for me.
@drewesque @OnionSoup Only on meh could “it caught fire, but we escaped major damage” be a positive experience.
@OnionSoup well, the chromebook turned out not to work, but, yeah, I have had a couple times of good luck. But I have probably spent a lot more on these than I have gotten value. It’s always fun, no matter how rare the good ones are.
@drewesque this was my box to a tee…what is faster than instant regret, because thats where I am…i have had a lot of hits but this miss offset them by a lot
I just looked up what I paid for the Trackr Pixel indiegogo - $100 for a box of 10. I didn’t get this IRK but karmically I probably should have. Their poor battery life (and/or poor capacity generic batteries) was their achilles heel; whenever you need them to function, they’re already dead.
(A reminder: if you actually have use for a TrackR for a few months, they still kinda work with the SwiftFinder app. Without as much of a network of other users, they’re more for the “last seen at” feature if you leave something behind, rather than for something like theft.)
This box felt promisingly heavier than the last one… because apparently 60 Trackrs and 2 boxes of car chargers have some heft!
Also one more useless laptop case.
The only non-IRK is the Irk.
@brainmist Yes. Fooled me too. Mine was hefty but I got what you got except, take away 30 TrackRs (light) and add 24 bottles of glitter paint (heavy), and you’ve got something that takes two hands to carry into the house.
Worst irk ever! I didn’t even post the last 2 bc they were bad but this one is super shitty. Usually the December box is good bc it’s like Xmas to us but I guess meh is skipping that this year.
Anyway I think my box was the exact same as someone a few post above. A box of trakers-garbage, 2 boxes of expired hand sanitizer- brothers work, a bunch of old phone cases- brothers work, a case of craft paint- brothers work and irk plushie- cool. And go figure I bought it for the bag lol
My brother works with low income people he’s a psychologist so anything gimmicky like the screen protectors, cases, phone rings (all my unused irk stuff) he hands out to his patients like Oprah. “You get a prize and you get a prize” so @dave you send me cases, a whole pallet of that stuff and it will get put to get use. As the low income people really do need the stuff. But you gotta send me a least something semi cool too and NO TRACKER!
@Star2236
Thats what I do with all that excess irk stuff too, working with homless and at-risk youth. I can find someone that can use just about anything and everything…much better than just throwing stuff away!
@JvB
Awesome! I feel like I’ve done a good deed to by doing it.
MEALS! DEALS! EELS! AWESOME!
Mine was same as @brainmist with the addition of 24 bottles of craft chalk paint in a color
described as “native turquoise”.
@steeltoesenator Some turtles might be “native turquoise”, but people, probably not so much.
My box was basically the same as steeltoesenator, execpt i got iphone 8 screen protectors. Box of trackrs, hand sanitizer and the case of “native turquoise” chalk paint.
First-time IRK-er here! Imagine my excitement opening the box in front of my children, hoping to show them how a real man handles soul-crushing disappointment. Contents: Irk stuffie, kn95 masks, hand sanitizer, love corn, casery phone grip/stand, and 15" MacBook pro case. NOT BAD! So glad no trackr or paint!
Forgot to take a picture before the box contents wandered off, but I got:
All in all, not too bad!
KRULL! A SKULL! BRETT HULL! AWESOME!
@psbales
That is so ugly it’s fucking awesome. You definitely need to hang that up in your yard with pride.
MEALS! DEALS! EELS! AWESOME!
@psbales Sad. I can’t see the picture. All I get is a tiny blue square with a ? inside it.
@Kidsandliz Yeah, weird. It worked earlier. And I can’t update my post now. Oh well. But I did end up hanging it in our yard! Let’s see how long before the wife finds it, lol.
@Star2236 DONE. See below (or above maybe?)!
@psbales Thanks for posting the photo again. This time I can see it.
Thank you, IRK! Air purifier!! Dont know if it works, but AWESOME!!
POPSOCKETS! COURT DOCKETS! FOLK ROCK HITS! AWESOME!
Thank you Meh! No regrets here.
1- apron
1-watch. Came without a box, not sure what kind is it, we’ll see if it works after charge.
1- security camera set
1- mesh door screen
1- Meh plushy
Thank you!!
@GzBiH forgot the stocking stuffer, Mani-Padi set.
Thank you Meh
@GzBiH
Wow looks like you won the best irk so far.
@GzBiH @Star2236 …and no participation trophy/bag this time for the “losers”!
I cackled as I opened this IRK. There’s actually some good things in here, if you’re not me. There’s a Citrus Juicer (I’m allergic to citrus fruits). The snacks are all spicy, also something I can’t eat. I don’t own a Mac laptop and never will. There’s two sweaters, size Extra Small and 3x, I’m somewhere in-between. I use those kinds of phone grips but I prefer that they be a part of my phone case so they don’t fall off while I’m carrying my phone with it. I’ll add the hand sanitizer to the gallon jug of the stuff we never use.
If the batteries aren’t dead, I’ll use the trackers. And IRK is actually a pretty good stuffy, I’m pleased with him. I’ll add him to my collection of Internet Celebrity plushies. I already have Grumpy Cat and Boo the Dog (both sadly dead).
Anyone want the citrus juicer for the price of shipping?
@Fuzzalini I guess everything in my IRK is useless to me. Totally living up to it’s promises!! I swore I would never buy one again, I only bought this because of the irk.
A message on its website says, “We regret to inform you that TrackR will no longer be supported on Apple or Android devices after August 15, 2021. We want to thank you for your trust and support throughout the years. We hope TrackR was the perfect resolution for finding your lost items.”Sep 22, 2021
@Fuzzalini There is another app that people use on android only. Swiftfinder or something like that.
@Kidsandliz Thanks. I have an Android phone so I’ll see what I can find. I fished them out of the trash.
@Fuzzalini I’d be up for the juicer please if the shipping isn’t too exorbitant! I’ll whisper my location to you.
Welp, that’s it for me. Last IRK I bought the Belvita things, had the worst case of heartburn later that day. $20 down the drain.
Then this IRK, I got the same crap I got the time before (trackers, hand sanitizer). Last time we got an auto battery charger (nice), this time I got some acrylic paint and a tablet case.
The Irk plushie is nice, but not worth $32.33.
So, I guess I’m done with Irks. Not Mehrathons, but the instant regret kit? Yeah, no mas for moi.
@lisaviolet I said I’d never buy one again the last (first) time. I only bought it for the Irk. Never again, again.
@Fuzzalini That is my thinking as well.
@lisaviolet The belvita cookies are great!
1 quip toothbrush - to go with my toothbrush coin I got in an IRK like 3 years ago
1 travel pillow (awesome, my secret Santa wants “anything travel related!”)
1 irk my kids were fighting over
2 sweaters size small - one was worn to church today by my kiddo it fits. Looks nice on her. I’m keeping the other one
Overall a decent IRK, thanks Meh!
HIKING! VIKINGS! STRIKE KING [BRAND FISHING LURES]! AWESOME!
@mbersiam
Now that’s a good irk, when you can find use for a the items.
@mbersiam Kosh, is that you?
I got a big massager box, with a massager and other stuff crammed inside. My wife will try the massager. A robe and a hoodie that are too small for me but will fit my wife. A pop-up hamper, and of course, I got an IRK plushie.
The cat went straight for the black hoodie during the photo shoot. My wife is wearing it with the fashionable cat hair. The tag says “fashionable jeans”, I that is either a brand name or the tag is on the wrong garment.
So my wife did really well with this IRK. I scored more than enough husband points to make this worthwhile.
@hamjudo
That robe is awesome! Reminds me of a cool smoking jacket.
HIKING! VIKINGS! STRIKE KING [BRAND FISHING LURES]! AWESOME!
Oops, sorry, I posted my reveal to wrong thread, Let me Poppy and Case it over here:
Woohoo. My first of two boxes arrived and it’s actually pretty OK.
Not exciting, but it’s still pretty usable and not just junk. Not a trackr to be seen.
…so first off there is the cardboard box itself. It is in mint condition, a beautiful work of art. It even arrived taped closed properly.
Next there is the Asphyxiated Irk Corpse Poor little bugger, once he ran around the factory in Carrollton, Texas pooping trackrs. Now he’s in a bag.
Then there is a little picture frame. Perfect for putting photos of the Irk Corpse in
Pet Wipes for cleaning the Irk when he gets dirty.
A handbag, in case I ever want to cremate Irk, this will be great to carry his ashes in.
And a memory foam pillow that appears to be a dud that won’t inflate. It’s soft enough for Irk to use as a bed.
@OnionSoup
So that’s where they’re coming from!
@Kyeh Yeah, hopefully now they’ve killed most of the baby Irks there won’t be as many trackrs anymore.
seriously, why would any one person need 66 trackers??? Got my irk, which I already owned one… 20 kn95 some corn and no bag… sad sad sad irk
@mikibell i also got 66 trackRs. I dont think i can justify spending more than $5 anymore… i used to get sheet sets, an occasional shark vacuum, kitchen small appliances… now i get trackRs. 66 of them. To add to the hundreds i already have. And gold phone holders. And cases and cases of acrylic paints, and hand sanitizer. The novelty has worn off.
@jnicholson0619 @mikibell 66 here as well…BASTARDS!
I’m not at all dissatisfied with my irk. I want a refund. I expected utter crap and I did not get that. Well, maybe some crap. Not sure what we’ll do with the wrinkle eraser syringe. But I think I’ll use the rest.
@kykazaa Crap is in the
noseeye of the beholder.The usual and a king sized mattress topper. If this is like the full sized one I got a while back it’s amazing. I’m pretty excited.
Also got a nice set of magnetic measuring spoons. This will be a stocking stuffer.
Also got a tan bag. I would rather have a nice red one but a bag’s a bag.
THANKS!
@sammydog01 I have two sets of those measuring spoons, they rock.
Do I win for “most TrackRs”? This irk was even worse than the last few… 3 more gold phone ring grips to add to the dozen+ I already have, a 15" MacBook pro hardshell that I don’t have (but I do have at least 3 other 15" hardshells, plus 4 or 5 of the smaller neoprene zipper ones). Stuffie (at least I don’t have one of these already), a 10 piece box of expired vegan cheezy corn nut-type treats, and 66… yes, 66 trackRs. A 30 pc box of singles, and a 12 count box of 3 packs. I probably have gotten a good 300+ of these over the years of irks. Makes me wish for more cases of paint like the last several irks… for $30 minimum for this trash, these have made me really not want to even risk it anymore. Go back to these being $5, and it might be worth the risk.
Mine wasn’t exceptionally bad this time.
Aside from the requisite Irk, I got one of these (black color):
One of these (doesn’t appear to have ever actually been sold around these parts):
And some girly low-cut socks.
The items appeared to be open-box, but unused. Will probably donate them to friends.
Things seem to be slightly better this time around, but lots of people still got worthless garbage. If they continue to sell these things for $20+ (after refunds), I’m not seeing much value. They need to either up the quality, or drop the price to make it worthwhile to gamble on these things.
@ShotgunX that’s a good box! Easy got the value there even if not items you want.
@ShotgunX The $20 included a plush they just sold for $20.
It’s not fool proof, but I think so far the mythology that late shipped irk boxes better than early shipped irks are better.
Probably completely random, but I’m willing to see patterns where they don’t exist if everyone else is.
@OnionSoup Mine never shipped, so thus never arrived, had to email support, they put in a new order. So already starting with regret and haven’t even received my regret. I’m sure it’ll extra regrettable!
@caffeineguy it must be really good if it’s this late. Be prepared for an IRK worth at least ¥1000.
2 phone rings, 8 trackrs, sanitizer, one bag of corn, tacky floral bag, ugly faux fur coat that’s a size too small
yeah i dunno about this one, but at least there is irk, i guess
This came a couple of days ago but I didn’t have time to photo and post it. Sorry meh.
Irk
Walmart shoes size 8.5. Not my size although I wouldn’t be caught dead in them even if they were. Each to their own I guess or maybe that is why meh has them
.
JVC ear buds wireless that were opened but appear to have not been used and likely my kid will get for christmas.
solar windchime - that needs to be used far away from anyone’s ears as possible since it will ring 100% of the time going in a circle and drive everyone crazy.
Light gray t-shirt Fruit of the Loom brand (that didn’t make the photo because I forgot about it when I took the photo - opps) Woman’s XL that may have been a mismarked size as it is about the same as a medium in real life, extra tight slim fit at that (didn’t know they were way off with their sizing). I don’t do the low budget lady of the night skin tight look. I’ll find it a home.
Thanks meh - especially because no trackers, no rings for phones, no parts to things I don’t have, no expired anything, nothing broken… and I want to spend my $5 coupon on a meh bag. Please allow us to do that!
@Kidsandliz
Those are some ugly shoes lol
@Star2236 Yes they are truly ugly. And it is hard to tell from the photo but there are tacky pink colored balls stuck on along the black and where you put your foot in and an ugly gold colored thing the laces go through. Truly gross. I doubt I could even sell them for $5. I’d probably have to pay someone to take them.
Although who knows plenty of stuff sells that in a million years I wouldn’t buy, wear or be caught dead with in my apartment, car or on me. Walmart charges $30 something for them. I’m going to list them for $10 or best offer and see what happens.
@Kidsandliz The XL FotL shirt is probably what Alpha-Broder lists as style IC47WR, and yeah, MUCH narrower than the “unisex” tee. I wear that XL as a “very fitted” tee, gladly.
@werehatrack If you can wear a woman’s XL it’s yours when I am in Houston next. But you will need to remind me.
@Kidsandliz @Star2236 Erm.
I would probably wear those shoes. If they were in my size (7).
It’s funny what people like or don’t. I was floored to find out what some purses went for.
@brainmist @Star2236 You are not kidding on purse prices. OMG some ugly shit going for way too much.
@brainmist @Kidsandliz
Don’t even get me started on purses.
@Kidsandliz @Star2236 I should really check my most recent one before I rehome it.
I don’t know how to post the pics so here is my list
No bag
1 irk
3 Casery phone grip & stand
10 Love Corn snack bags (expired but very good)
20 pack KN95 masks
1 incase textured hardshell for Ipad 15" which I don’t own
Trackrs - between this IRK and the last one I have 96 trackrs. At first it was kind of cute and quirky, now I scream into my pillow every night until I fall asleep
@jmruru Use the masks. I know of more than a few who have contracted Covid within the past two months. Don’t kid yourself, Covid is alive and well. Those that are “sharing,” well they walk among us for 'tis the season of giving, dontchaknowed?
@Jackinga im singing with 100 people tomorrow. Fingers crossed that i dont get sick
@Jackinga @jmruru Ugh. Hopefully somewhere with really good ventilation. Or outdoors.
I got something I can use, along with my additional furry Irk! This comforter is CA-King size, but I tried it on my queen bed and quite like it. I’m always annoyed at how queen-size bed covers are so short. The fabric is a nice linen-cotton blend, with actual embroidery on it.
No Trackrs either, just a couple of phone ringy thingies which I kind of like. One of the weird white Mediocre bags as well.
Toby insists on being the first to lie on any new item I get. He approves of it.
@Kyeh sweet Toby! Also that comforter is pretty! Nice score
@tinamarie1974 Thanks!
@Kyeh That looks super comfy!
(especially compared to a pile of obsolete Trackrs!)
@brainmist It is! The fabric is very breathable, unlike a lot of all-polyester comforters.
We need a Irk Drop!
I didn’t bother taking a picture. I got a case of inhaler nebulizers, a medium sized pair of granny compression panties, and 6 two-packs of USB-A cigarette lighter chargers. The plushie is great though!
Sorry. This is a little late. So late, in fact, I’m waiting for my next IRK from January 10th meh-ration. Oh well, here goes.
1 IRK plushie born January 9, 2014
12 2 pack iessentials car chargers
1 15” MacBook Pro case
30 blue TrackRs - my favourite color
24 bottles of Native Turquoise Premium Chalky acrylic paint
Very meh. But hey, loves the anticipation. It’s better than opening a Cracker Jack box and finding a prize that’s a piece of paper that needs a smart phone to scan in the QR code.
