You know the drill people. It's time to look for those beloved BOCs.

Bags of Croutons here I come! Or is it Bowlers of Cod? What could be better, walking around outside in hoods, come on, it's cold out there, long live the woot off!

Actually, I don't know "the drill". Could one of you enlighten those of us who don't have a clue what the heck you're talking about?

woot.com they sell one item a day

sometimes they have whats called woot offs they sell a different item as each one sells out

one item they sell is a boc or bag of crap which is what it sounds like a random bag full of stuff for a dollar

Sounds cool. I just signed up, though I have no money, just in case they something for sixty-four cents (prepaid credit card).

Good luck with that, there's standard $5 shipping on anything.

I've actually had to stop looking at woot, I've wooted over 10 times in the past like, month. It's been between the woot off, shirt.woot and sellout.woot .

I'm with you in the same boat here Michelle, but add wine.woot to that list for me. lol :p

And I hate my internet settings at work that didn't allow me to get to wine.woot for the Bah Humbug bottles with the free shirt. :mad: :( :mad:

Oh.. and apparently they already had a BOC at 5am. Anyone get it?
I saw the item after because it was pointed out to me, but i didn't even see the BOC.
meh.

Hahahahaha!
Speaking of. Leak-Frog 2 pack is up right now!

And the screwdrivers themselves aren't that bad. I'm sure they aren't the best steel in the world, but the packaging sucks.
If You do end up buying them, expect them to be shipped to you on a peg hook card package style holder, without the plastic cover attached to the hanging card itself. It just has lame packaging.

Woot and I are at odds, we are fighting and all I can say is that you should pay the extra for the overnight shipping, my one item got lost and showed up 3 weeks late without any explination, my next item is 2 weeks late and counting, and has gone from Texas to Wisconson to Texas to Wisconson to Rolling Meadows (no that isn't a typo).

I don't know if anyone saw it, but there was a Zune accessory that lasted for at least 15 minutes, if not more. Started around 3am, forum had 780+ posts. Ridiculous stuff, it was.

I wish you could get overnight shipping with regular Woot.com items. They will never do that because it would cost them a bundle on some items. (They only offer this service right now with the shirts)

Now on shipping up from Texas to Wisconsin area:
3-4 day delay on Woot from when you by the item to when they actually ship it
3.5-4 days from Texas to Chicago
1 day from Chicago to Dubuque, Iowa
1 day to my Dorm in Platteville

One thing I noticed specifically with FedEx is their packages don't move much on weekends. I normally expect to receive my Woot package about 2 weeks after I order it, which I don't mind if I'm getting a good deal

You'd think they have come to realize that they need more equipment. Obviously they get a kick out of us getting those two words of doom.
