Early this morning I played the game walking across boards to the next column… earning a 32 before my Woot! Monkey fell.
My prize was a neat piggy bank featuring a dog. The “prize” price was $20.99.
I noticed the color difference too… but come on that much more $$$$$??
I bought a cat coin bank (as a prize) not too long ago off Woot… maybe paid $7-8 …
(Don’t say dogs are more valuable than cats in the cheesy plastic coin bank industry… I wondered about that too…)
Wait… you guys have been offered something that you would actually consider buying? So far my “prizes” have lived up to the digital crap description, to the point that I wouldn’t take them for free.
On the Forums tab, if you look for (or search for) “Digital Crap on the App” you’ll see something (currently) with less than 6000 posts, detailing every midnight “prize” for what seems like years. Last night everybody over “there” was saying the same thing: too much, over-priced by two or three times…
If you’re tired of the games, check there to see what you COULD win if you get stubborn.
It makes the most sense to add something “dubious” to your cart, to SAVE IT for after checking out the thing (reviews, price comparisons, etc) - because once you LEAVE that “you’ve won some crap!” page you can’t get back to that prize again…
