Oh yeah, did I forget to mention that there is a Woot-Off today? Well, there is. Don’t get too attatched to any discussions, because they may become irrelevant pretty quickly.

What is up with the wootstalker customize button? It just takes me back to the main page. I am signed in. Is it busted?
@mfladd Ok, it was very late at night last night. Is that customize thing a button, or is it just a damn label for that box?
@mfladd And where the hell is everybody in this thread, and on meh in general?
@mfladd We are on 31 day rule so interest in current woot off is slim.
@mfladd The customize button updates which sites are shown/hidden based on your preferences. So if you don’t care about Wine, uncheck that box in the block, hit Customize, and the wine sales aren’t shown anymore.
GaH…missed that BOC. It made me sign in again, and was making me go thru multiple, duplicate pages to do it…GaH!
Got my BOC ordered. Don’t really need anything else today but will be keeping an eye on it in case something I didn’t know I needed comes up, lol. I was tempted on the Tide early this morning but I still have two.
I’m trying to ignore the Woot-off today. I’m even eligible for crap.

/giphy I wish you well
@sammydog01 Not quite what I was going for but Princess Bride is always good. I wasn’t going to try for a BOC today but I mentioned to my hubbie that a woot-off was going and he insisted that I try. Okay, maybe he just casually said that I should go ahead a try but that sounded like insisting to me.
/wootstalker https://sellout.woot.com/offers/nintendo-switch-neon-red-and-neon-blue-joy-con-3?ref=w_cnt_cdet_sell_dly_wobtn
Nintendo Switch - Neon Red and Neon Blue Joy-Con
Price: $269.99
Condition: New
A Nintendo Switch is currently up on the Woot Off. I haven’t been watching the prices for the Switch too closely so I’d like everyone’s mediocre opinion if this price is worth it? For me, all I was interested in it for was the new Zelda game and Metroid 4.
@Rueki Ah well, it sold out. Saved me $270 I guess.
@Rueki Well son of a biscuit. Why does this stuff only seem to come up when I’m in staff meetings?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Rueki @ruouttaurmind I was on all the while it was up. And it was up for a WHILE. I don’t think that is a great price. I think you should both be happy you didn’t pay it. You will see better deals coming me thinks.
@mfladd @Rueki Prices were around $200 at the end of the last summer. I’m sure they’ll dip back down there in a few months.
Must be a bunch of these 'cause I had no trouble getting one.

Bag o’ Crap j32j21ou3
Price: $9.99
Condition: New
This deal is currently sold out
Is there any way to tell the quantity of an item that’s been sold?
@ruouttaurmind
@sammydog01
Oh, ok, so you’re saying only one was sold?
Def. not a top shelf knife, but every bit as good as the Kershaw and Schrade knives meh was selling for a while. Well, maybe a bit better since this is a lock back rather than a liner lock.

Gerber Bear Grylls Scout Knife
Price: $9.99

Squatty Potty Toilet Stool
Price: $12.99
Condition: New
@sammydog01 At least it is in new condition
Ok, I don’t care if another BOC comes up. I’m not watching anymore. I have already bought 4 things and would have grabbed a couple of others if I had seen them. I’m out of money for this.
And I did buy the Cowin headphones.
@mfladd I bought a pair like that from Meh! They made me nauseous.
@sammydog01 why?
@mfladd FWIW, those headphones are the same price on the mother ship.
@ruouttaurmind No, 59.99 with $10 coupon makes it 49.99. These were 39.99.

@mfladd Apparently it’s a thing with noise cancelling headphones for some people. I didn’t know until about 5 seconds after I tried them. And the pair I got didn’t work at all with the noise cancellation off (there was a switch).
@sammydog01 These are just suppose to be decent for noise cancellation… For the money I don’t expect them to be Bose, but they say they work great for a plane. Now if they will just get here before next week that will be even better.
@mfladd Good luck.

@mfladd Yup, of course you are correct. I didn’t have my glasses on and misread as $20 discount. Mea culpa.
@ruouttaurmind I had been thinking about the Cowin’s for almost a couple of years - I’m not paying a lot for headphones. They just caught me at the right time with the price. Not a super bargain, but less than usual.
@ruouttaurmind So much for the Cowins. I received a faulty pair. In Noise Cancelling mode the right speaker is popping horribly. I put in a return request
@mfladd Sorry boss. I know you were looking forward to them.
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind
/giphy damn those bastards
NOW!

@ruouttaurmind Scratch what I said
I was done with the WO, and minding my own business typing away on meh, when out of the blue some stray tab opens up with a Bag of Carrots! WTF! Damn wootstalker!!!
Blame!!! I’m done! I’m done!
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind Damn wootstalker, I got one too!
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind @sammydog01
My bad?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I grabbed one also lol.
@ruouttaurmind @sammydog01 @reg036
My BOC placement weight is 3 lbs? thru UPS. Is everyone’s the same or are you showing something different?
@mfladd @reg036 @ruouttaurmind Mine too.
@mfladd I avoid all BOC tracking info. I like to be surprised when it shows up on my doorstep. There’s not enough mystery in my life, so I manufacture it where I can.
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind The weights on my BOC never update so I just track when it will arrive. I need something to look forward to. Or disappointment to look forward to.
@mfladd @ruouttaurmind @sammydog01 Mine is 3lb also…I should avoid looking at it though I like to be suprised also.
I have managed to not buy anything else.
/giphy closed wallet
@tnhillbillygal Me too! For once.
I snagged some smart bulbs. My husband got crap. Other than that, I resisted this woot-off. Helped that tomorrow is payday.
The only thing I had a passing interest in was the $5 Tile tracker, but I wallowed in indecision and they sold out. Probably for the best since I had no idea what I would have done with it. Oh, and I got a BOC.
I really only saw one or two items at doorbuster prices this time.
I spent $0.
@narfcake I spent double that.
