bag of crap
[/quote]
why does it auto correct/change me saying “BoC”?
I’ve only joined this whole thing a month ago, server lock-up killed my chance at a bag during the last one, but I’m not disappointed. That was 48hrs of a lot of variety. Better than waiting 24 hours for the next item to be posted.
I remember quite a few where people were livid about not having one - including one where nobody COULD snag one because the servers kept crashing.
Isn’t that what Whine Woot is for?!?

I love how 1/3rd of the people bitching about Woot not getting their money anymore, have 0 woots.
Get over it guys. They cant always have the specific product you want. They gave away the BoC’s earlier this month for their birthday.
Get over yourselves.

You are correct. I don’t watch the woot off like I used to and I don’t see anything I want to buy anymore.
condecending Wonka This must be your first Woot-Off.
(Srsly, though, I have a filter on Bag of Cra*. They know it’s common, so why not have fun with it.)

The sad part is that the US Postal Service will not ship anything deemed as ‘cool’ to APO addresses…
That’s a bummer on a whole new level.

Giving multiple Bee oh Cees and then none in Woot-offs is classic psychology. A well known experiment placed rats in two different cages. In one cage the rat got a treat each time it pressed a bar. It the other cage the rat got a treat after pressing the bar a random number of times… sometimes once…sometimes after 10 or more presses. Then they stopped giving treats to both rats. The “one press/one treat rat” stopped trying for the treat very quickly… after only a dozen or so presses. The “random press rat” continued to press the bar thousands of times. We are nothing more than Woot Rats and will return to press the bar for the Bee oh Cee treat because we’re never sure when we’re going to get another “treat”. I’d hoped to become more in life than a Woot Rat, but apparently this is my fate… along with the rest of you rats. LOL See you next woot-off.

Great. So woot!'s re-design is to get us accustomed to Skinner boxes. Dam ned consumer psychologists! They take the fun out of spending stupidly. And it was chickens, not rats, than Skinner first used. Chickens in boxes. Boxes of Chickens. B…o…C. Hmmm…

Every time I see this site I no longer appreciate the wit of the authors or the community feeling it tries to invoke. It is all pretense now - they’ve turned what was once a unique and original format into their permanent marketing campaign. I think this is the end of my loyalty and interest in this site. It’s so disgusting that I almost want to boycott Amazon too.

Every innovative idea that gets purchased by a “bigger fish” turns into bucket of crayfish.
Well, while all you guys were complaining, i managed to buy tevas for everyone in the family, the phone i needed for the farm and out by the pool, PFD for the pool, shirts for my son, GPS covers for everyone i know, mats, monkeys . . . all for 5$ shipping, and without the disappointment of missing my BOC.
Worstwoot, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

Or, they just didn’t want to give one.
(ps, i think that experiment is about “habituating the stimulus” and i, too, use it as a frequent example.)
