And if anyone knows what the small black basket is let me know.
It looks like one of these to me …
(Lots of manufacturers so can’t tell from the picture which the exact one is.)

It’s a hippo.
That’s all.
Sweet! Thanks!
Got my ‘Buns of Cheese’ box yesterday
Hanging lamp could be cool, takes 3 AAA’s
Compress foam thing - similar to the ole ACE bandage
CLAW mount bracket deals could come in handy
Skipbo and pack of cards - fun for all
Grape crystal lite caff - will use yep, but not enough caff; will add more but also aspertame isn’t that great I’ve heard; all the diet major sodas use it; I like Publix generic ftw with the sucralose but add flavoring and caff
Woot pen with level/inch marks and small screwdriver stylus; nice! ; I put this in my tool bag
2 ‘peas for the keys’ - says phone charm deal but kids will like them
green tough canvas bag
a bunch of trays and bags maybe for jewelry for daughters to sell
plasticware = good to use when dishes are going to take too much time, but also not too durable
I’m a little late to the party but here’s my last BOC for 2025. I snagged a Bring On Christmas on December 19th and it arrived on December 23. I was surprised it showed up so fast, and before the holiday even, so it was like Christmas came a day early for me, LOL.
For the scorekeepers among us (you know who you are), my 2025 New Year’s resolution was to somehow, some way score a BOC in every month of the year which would be a miraculous feat considering the 31 day rule. I’d say I fared pretty well, all things considered. Here is the recap:
January- skunked
February- Beards Of Courage
March- Beard Obliterating Cream
April- skunked
May- Big Odorous Carcass
June- Bassoons Or Clarinets
July- Bubblewrap Obsession Crew
August- Braces Over Choppers
September- skunked
October- Bargains Or Clearance
November- Boss Of Cardinals
December- Bring On Christmas
So as you can see it was a pretty good year for my resolution with a success rate of 75%, which is far better than I do most years when I tend to flame out in the first two weeks.
Witness my bounty from December!
The Wooty:
(Not pictured, a lovely green Woot! bag)
Woot puzzle pen
I’m sensing a theme with this box.
The wipe-y:
Amazon Basics disinfecting wipes
Unscented Dude Wipes (which I used on the dog)
Feminine Wipes
Refreshing Lavender Deodorant Wipes
The useful to my household:
Ticonderoga pencils
Reach dental floss
Scotch tape, 3 rolls
Magnetic pickup tool (with lighted end!) SCORE!
Mini flashlight
Meat chopper kitchen tool
Playing cards
Parchment sheets (will use for crafts because they smell like soap)
Useful to someone who isn’t me:
Makeup concealer in a shade that isn’t my natural neon winter white
Neutrogena hydrating mask
The weird:
A little metal container with a lid and spoon, Amazon lens tells me it’s a ghee pot? I don’t even know what ghee is but I will probably put salt or sugar in it.
2024 Agricultural calendar, yeah no. Straight into the recycling bag.
So once again, thank you Woot! for bringing me nearly an entire year filled with joy
, surprises
and just plain WTH.
I love you. ![]()
Belly over Corduroy from Threads:
I got a puppy
Clearly a return - older model, no warranty, and rather cranky. Seems housebroken, so that’s a plus
(Kidding aside - real contents were as expected: copy paper, gloves, random book, cheap kitchen utensils, another Nose Frida (sigh), kid craft project, ear buds, woot bag and pen . Pen not only has a level but can turn into a screwdriver too so pretty cool!
Congratulations!!!

You must have acquired this BOC using the app. I keep seeing the following advertised, but glad to finally see someone who got a free puppy! ![]()

ENJOY!!!

I’m still waiting for a kittie ![]()
Meh, I’ve had better BOCs….
But this one was not short on disappointment!
Here we go… “Bring Other Calendar”
-
A handsome cardboard box, emblazoned with green question marks, and the Woot! logo. Now there’s a crowd pleaser.
-
A Woot! carry all bag, I’ll be the envy of everyone at Shop Rite.
-
A “Snap Close Organizer”. Well, that’s kind of useful.
-
A Woot! Combination pen, ruler, level, 2in1 screwdriver, and stylus nib thing that nobody uses anymore. Nice!
-
Three 24 packs of Bic Cristal pens, probably worth around $15. Not bad! At 70, I’ll probably never have to buy them again. Ever.
-
Nondescript Mylar party decorations. Makes any gathering marginally festive. Now, if I only had friends…
-
A scrunched spiral bound notebook. Speaks for itself.
-
A kitchen apron. Probably a good idea to have one.
-
(Drumroll please) A fridababy NoseFrida SNOTSUCKER
(Born in Sweden)
“It’s smart. It’s Swedish. It’s maybe a little strange. It’s the doctor-invented nasal aspirator that actually works!”.
I just don’t have words…..
And there you have it. Disappointment you can really savor! Thanks Woot!
(French Bulldog sold separately)
Hey! That’s very pessimaitic of you, thinking you’ll never have to buy pens again ‘Ever.’. You could easily lose 72 pens, and have to buy some more next year, if you really wanted to.
We received:
- 1 math book (Louisiana state testing, 6th grade)
- 1 hanging camping lamp
- 1 pack of Dude Wipes
- 1 inflatable dinosaur balloon
- 1 Woot bag
- 1 Woot coozie
- 1 copy of “Powerful Partnerships - A Handbook for Principals Mentoring Assistant Principals” (my daughter is a teacher, and is mildly intrigued by this)
- 1 ice cube tray
- 1 safety vest (size XL)
An interesting collection of things. Would have been better with a Woot monkey. Maybe next time? Thanks anyway, Woot!
I love the way you laid it out, like an art project. The trash bag is a great touch.
Bring Other Calendar
• woot shopping bag
• 3-pack of Bic Cristal Xtra Bold 24 pack color pens, most will go to my son’s classroom
• Multifunction woot pen
• Composition notebook, my son will doodle in it endlessly
• NoseFrida the SNOTSUCKER, very useful for small children which I have none of, it will be given to a friend with a wee one
• Sterling Tools snap-close organizer
• Inflatable dinosaur balloon ball, inflated right away by my son
• Size medium pumpkin crop top?
All together fairly meh which makes it a remarkably OK BoC.
BOCs are only offered for sale occasionally, and there are always more people trying to buy them than there are BOCs available. There’s where the disappointment begins. Here’s a link to the BOC primer, which explains it all:
O M G get rid of that plain “W” & put that cute pup’s face as your avatar. How could you not ![]()
