You can click on the photo, zoom in and see that it is a print. I love how joyful he is!
I think itâs great heâs so happy and his glasses reflect the color of his shirt
(apologies for the delay, my week sort of tanked at work inc rushes right when I was due off, sighâseriously people, do yâall just stand outside 'til thereâs a small mob, then rush the Purple counter?)
'kittyâawesome video! Love the commentaries! You make me wish more than ever that I couldâve figured out how to video opening my (comparatively tiny) Letter Box. Ah well, Iâll just go reread the play-by-play I wrote up. I agree with TT, sounds like a lot of the stuff you either have a need for, or know who to gift it to. Great deal! I also love how very very appreciative the whole family was.
Btb, how do you tell if your uke is good quality or not? Asking for real, 'cause I have the Mommaâs uke and have no idea if it was a kiddy-level she never got rid of or a decent one that she never mastered.
Except all of my random things go into my Mystery Boxes for the Conâs charity auction. Helps that I ârunâ my Boxes when they come upââI know whatâs in here, but you donât, might be some really awesome stuff, honestly I donât even remember all the great crap I put in it!â And the bidding goes higher
@Peyton - oh my gosh you are SUCH a cutie! I would dearly love to be there to flap your ears 'til you groan!
@inazuma - you are truly an overachiever. I havenât even gotten to your next posts, Iâve just read about The List. Dang! And now having viewed the photos, great haul! Congrats!
TT, I am VERY impressed with how the monkeys manage to pack so much into a relatively-confined palette. I know how difficult that can be! Although with a palette, at least the confines are mostly self-imposed. Iâm forced to make things fit into set box-sizes. Luckily I had excellent training with three years of packing an entire dorm-room into a '78 Olds Cutlass Salon.
Say, thatâs a better average than the last time you Lettered, when you decided to stop doing them each month. Does this mean youâll keep doing Letters again? Pweez can has anudder?
Thank you for that. While my best friend says storing things to donate later is toxic, I always feel Iâd much rather put up with a box of crap stashed behind a chair that I know will go away than adding to landfills with perfectly good things someone else might find useful. (thatâs my way of saying âlotsa thumbs up for you!â)
@chazzyoo - I totally agree with Linda & AâKatâyou look so utterly and TOTALLY thrilled with having Snagged a Bag of Crap! Join the never-yet-disappointed club with me.
>'Kat
And for my Box ('cause I do NOT sneak off with it, although I AM sometimes slow about posting it, sorry)
Amusingly, the UPS arrived as I was about to leave for rehearsal with the Jazz combo. Iâd forgotten water so had just gone back in and saw the truck pull up. He started for my gate, so I opened the front door. He was already going back to the truck. First thoughtâREALLY DUDE? You just dumped it in front when I specifically chased you down last time for doing that? No, he actually nicely set it in my garage since the door was open. Since I was now late, I put it in my car and left.
After rehearsal, I told my friend (whose house we rehearse at) that I had my Box with me, and did she want to see what all the funâs about. Sure. So Morgan is missing for once, but her cat Cato filled in.
He was curious about what was in the Box. And sniffed at things as I took them out. That was about it.
My friend said heâs very atypical and has very little interest in empty boxes. This was the closest he came to going into the empty box. Sniffed at it, looked in it and saw there was nothing else, then walked off.
My haulâ
1 - 3-pack vegetable patio planters. Iâm thinking SiL gift. Either one.
1 - hi-viz safety vest. Always useful.
1 - light-up truck or car. Gifted that to my friend for her grandsons since she seemed pleased with that prospect. BIG
1 - narrow red 3-ring binder. Again, useful, esp for a writer
1 - Fantastic Beasts book of the characters. Since I do plan on checking out the vids sometime, this should be useful. Then most likely will go into a Mystery Box for next yearâs Con.
1 - package of funny sandwich bags. I take a sandwich to work most days, so very useful. Thank you woot!
1 - purple/wine/cranberry New Woot bag. Friend was very envious. Not sharing that though.
1 - woot! straw in container. Thatâll be fun at work.
1 - package of fishing hooks, maybe and my friend thinks thatâs what it is. Label says âMustad KVD Triple Grip Musky/Saltâ Size 3/0, Ref TG90-BN, 5 pcs. They look more like trefoils. Canât imagine how big a fish youâd be fishing for to use three-pronged hooks this big. Canât imagine how huge a single-aught size is. These are up for tradesies or just claimsies.
1 - package of Crazy 'Kat-lady gift tags. How perfect can this get, huh? Not enough thumbs up for this one! Total score! AâKat, CâKit, Iâm not sharing, and Iâm not sorry, either.
1 - meditation adult coloring book. SiL LURVES doing these. Sheâll probably get this, so the other SiL will get the planters. Christmas gifts taken care of.
1 - package hothands. Again, always useful in KS winters. These shall go into my emergency pack that I keep in my car once it turns cold.
1 - jack oâlantern stencil book. I donât carve my pumpkins anymore since we get zero trick-or-treaters, but Iâll look it over. Might keep, might give to a friend at work, might go in a Mystery Box.
And the absolute best score of the box, 1 - unicorn tape dispenser with two rolls of rainbow tape! Again, not enough thumbs up for how happy I am with this score! I just wish I still worked at the new job so I could have it on my desk and everyone could see it. Sadness there. TT, does secondary residual disappointment count for you?
Except for that bit of tangent disappointment, I am thrilled as usual with my Bag. Thanks woot! and TT and everyone for the fun!
(edit to say Iâve copyânâpasted this into the correct thread)
>'Kat
Equally happy with my back-up set of woot!off lightsâ
Even though I have no good place now to use them. Heck, I never got a chance to use my first set before being laid off from the new job. HEY ALL YOU NAZARENES, PLEASE START TITHING MORE SO I CAN GET REHIRED!!!
And esp for you, TT, 'cause I know youâve checked for more when I missed out in past woot!offsâ
The cheapie no-frills-inc walkie-talkies. I tested them with myself, but I canât say how well they would work from up here down to my old bedroom. Still, I think the Momma wouldâve been pleased with their potential. Iâm sure theyâd have been good enough that she could sit here and âyellâ at me through her walkie, and never need to get up and yell down the stairs.
Iâm happy to have them, esp since they seemed toâve been as hot a ticket as a BoâC. But Iâm also sad thereâs no need for them right now. Iâm certain I will need them, considering my history of surgeries, but for now theyâll just be entertainment scanning channels to eavesdrop on cops or something. Sayâdoes anyone know what channel cops transmit on so I can hear any calls nearby and know if anything badâs happening?
Thanks again, TT and all the woot! gang that puts together the woot!offs and esp the Bs oâ C. Iâm very pleased, as usual.
(and ditto. Sigh. I blame KC Joeâs BBQ pizza from Minskyâs for making me not notice I was in the wrong thread)
>'Kat

woops, sorry for the delay, been away for a bit. Anyway, I honestly donât know how to tell a good uke from a bad one.
A metric Iâm currently going with is the following:
âMy 14 yr old daughter is happy with both of them and they seem to retail for $20 and $40 respectivelyâ.
Thatâs pretty much all I have.
They could completely suck, but she loves them so they donât suck. I think thatâs how it works anyway!
I hope it helps (though from a practical perspective, I guess it doesnât).
Wowzer!

Woot bag
Finding Dory Bailey toy - I never saw the movie but this thing makes the most annoying âooOooOo guysâ sound and I love it. My son and I have been torturing the the rest of the house with it.
The cats were unimpressed but loved the box. Go figure
I got the look from my wife while unboxing Iâm sure many of you have gotten. âThe why did you by this crap for lookâ That was the best gift of all. Mission accomplished.
Really should have looked at my Woot! code to see that the damn thing expired on 8/31/2020.
Bah.
(On the other hand, now I REALLY AM disappointed.)
