Dang missed the foil. tried two different browsers and the app, but got frozen at the procced to checkout. I hit the Add to cart button within 5 seconds of it being offered, but no dice. 
Yeah, I tried to login six times and just got that the servers were protesting. Damn foil.

I was so wrapped up in trying to these (need and great for stocking stuffer) I didn’t noticed I was foiled by the Amazon rocket servers. Now I need these to pop up again so I make a hat to ensure I am safe

I’m just waiting for woot to offer a 4 pack of AirTags at a great price only to cancel all the orders of people who managed to score a 4 pack and then offer them a pointless coupon

Proceed to checkout wouldn’t work for me…guess I missed out. Hope it isn’t like this all day!
