Howdy Wooters!
This here nifty thread is for posting your BOC should you be so unlucky as to get one during the month of APRIL 2019!

Remember that you’re promised these things from your BOC:
- 3 items
- A bag if we remember to put it in
- Abject disappointment
If you get more than that, count your blessings or talk to someone about the disappointment that has swallowed up your life.
Order Snafus
You may find that your order got denied or canceled. While this seems totally unfair and you’ll be tempted to complain to anyone that will listen, here’s a few things for your consideration:
- We will never have enough craps for those wishing to purchase craps.
- At best, the ratio of people attempting to available craps are 3:1… if you’re lucky. Usually it’s more like 25:1 or more.
- So many people try that it pushes our servers to the point of wanting to throw in the towel and just crash
- The servers have been known to crash.
To keep the servers from crashing, we have an order queue. You’ll enter the “Vestibule of Patience” while you wait for your order to be accepted, denied, or canceled. You should not exit the Vestibule to try again because that just puts you at the back of the line.
- If your order is accepted, then you can brag about your impending disappointment in this here thread and on your social media outlets of choice.
- If your order is denied, it’s nothing personal. It just means that we ran out before your order was processed. It’s our rude way of saying “Sorry!”
- If your order was cancelled, you were so, so, so close. So close that your payment went through but gosh darn it, we ran out of BOCs before we assigned one to you. We have to reverse all that work to refund your hard earned money.
Remember to post what you get!
Now one of the things that makes the Bag of Crap so much darn fun is to see what everyone got. The only way to see what everyone got is if everyone comes back to post what you got. See the trend here?
Taking your crap and running off with just steals the fun from everyone, especially me. So please post what you get.
Since we don’t have quality posts, I promise to like every post sharing a bag of crap. Likes earn you cred points on this new forum. Like are good. I will give likes.
< Bad!!
So there you have it.
- Prepare for disappointment
- Post what you get
- Earn
And let the waiting begin
A Poll!
Tell me what you thought of your Bag o’ Crap!
1 (hated it) to 5 (loved it!)

I was lucky enough to win in the Forum Giveaway a custom curated Box of Crap. Indeed the fact that there were dog items in the box when the forum showed cats means they have found out who I am!
Anyway, here is my crap:
Blue Bag, Eggs and Bacon Monkey - Love this cape and happy to get a monkey again
Bonny Wing Corkscrew - Always happy for wine stuff
IU Gloves - Wrong state, seems like nice gloves
Hammer Time Multi Tool - will be a fun gift!
cowgirls in the kitchen cookbook - just use internet for recipes.
Chamberlain Universal Garage Door Remote KLIK3U-BK2 - Seems useful and yet surprisingly un-usefull - thanks!
2x Magic Mesh Russian 39"x83" - So strange the boxes were completely in russian! But have a couple friends that will love these!
Pueen Facial Brushes
His Hers Kitchen Towel
Ravens NFL Hand Warmer Gloves
Holly Tissue Paper - Really… 4 sheets…
Coglahns Fire Disk Fire Starter - mmmm… FIRE
Caterpillar Hoodie Dog Costume Med - Fits decently on small dog, should be good torture
Rubies Pet Shop Witch Hat - Not his style, but may be forced upon him
Ibra 8m HDMI Cable - very nice and actually have a couple uses.
Jack is not happy with the hat!
He isn’t happy with the caterpillar costume either but enough treats and enough pictures finally got one not too bad.
Overall… disappointment is lacking this time around in this custom curated crap container.
Thanks and see you again soon!

There is a random chance of getting crap on the Woot app on Saturdays, crap is offered randomly during Woot-Offs once a month, sometimes Woot contests here on the forum give away boxes of crap, and according to the Mischief Week thread at:
They will be selling crap on Thursday. Not sure of the details, though.
Mostly, though, you have to be fast. Very, very fast. Make sure you’re logged in, use the Woot login and not the Amazon login because it’s faster (and shipping is built-in to crap offerings so you aren’t saving anything by using Amazon), and keep trying.

Mine is also on its way, due Friday 4/19, and also 6.2 pounds. Is that the new placeholder weight?

Thanks for the tip. I always sign in through the amazon way and now it says I’m a new customer to woot. Strange, maybe bc of new woot?

I don’t think so. That’s weird. Maybe ThunderThighs can provide some guidance here.

Have you been to this new forum though? The “new” might just be referring to this area, not necessarily new customer.

Close-up of the gloves. They are nice. But they are small, and my hands are large. These are even too small for my wife!
Thanks Woot for the fun and laughs. See you 31 days from now! (hopefully)

Just received notice that a 6.40 lbs BoC is on its way. I’m glad they gave me an expected delivery date because that sounds like a lot of disappointment to prepare for.
