    So...they only have 1 product ALL day on normal days?! Weak. Wootoffs, I take it are the only time the products change in the same day. Let us know when the next wootoff is.

    I don't want a cheapass train. :eek:

    Just got back in the office and my woot box was sitting on my desk (I've been out for a week and a half). This is my score from the woot off that was the last week in October.

    Contents:

    1 - black/red backpack (I already have one of these from the last bag of crap I purchased. the first one is currently my 2 year old's diaper bag.)
    1 - optical laptop usb mouse (actually pretty nice item)
    1 - wing dish (holds chicken wings for tasty enjoyment)
    8 - "Gumby Fan" bumper stickers (circa 1985, has a pic of Gumby and that screwy horse)


    As for this woot off, I was on vacation and had limited computer time. I left the house a few items before the bag of crap showed up...felt bad, but had to consider that Hawaii > Bag Of Crap. ;)

    Congrats moe...let us know what you get. (crossing fingers that moe get's the golden crap)

    ok, i'm trying to get into this woot thing. how does it work?

    i'm registered. can the only time i buy something is when it's the "Today's woot" page? i tried looking for a "buy" button on other items but can't find one.

    edit: just read the "What is Woot" link. guess it's only one item per day for sale.

    ^ it's only one item per day, and it goes on sale at Midnight every night...Except for woot off, where they sell random crap...There is also a woot wine site too...

    I've bought some stuff there and have been satisfied...

    dont forget their tshirt site where I bought this bad boy

    [​IMG]

    best shirt ever.....

    and their "Sellout" site which is basically Woot on Yahoo's shopping page

    shopping.yahoo.com

    I've bought my Zune on there, along with a sweet case, and power inverter for my car. They're pretty quick in shipping and have been satisfied with everything I've bought.

    What is the best thing anyone anywhere has ever won in the Bag of Crap deals?

    I'm not that familiar with Woot, but the concept of BOC is kinda funny to me.

    The legend is that someone once got a huge HDTV in one once. I honestly have no clue to the validity of that claim, though.

    I think they gave out some PS3s back when they were hard to find.
