Hooray ! This is my lucky day.

The Woot! Gods heard my threats prayers and finally granted me Random Crap (a.k.a. Bag Of Crap).
I am weeping with joy.



Anyone of you ever been lucky enough ?
What did you get with your Blinged-out cabbage ?

For a minute there I thought you scored a quarter of dried cabbage or something, instead of your usual 'fix'.

Looks like fun, let us know what the contents is!

I'm rarely up at 1AM EDT for the regular woots, so I'm pissed that I missed the mid-day Woot-Off Bag Of Crap by five minutes or so.

Yes, yesterday's Woot-off was most unusual. It was more a mini-Woot-off. Nobody expected it to end at that time. I was really lucky to have crapped.

Don't know yet. Just ordered it yesterday. And it will be shipped via SmartPost, "the crappiest shipping method available to us."



So it will take a moment.

The important question is not whether or not you were able to order the blinged out cabbage, but whether or not you ordered 3?

Who are the 19% of people that order, but only order one? Why can they not read the description that says you get one bag, but if you order three, they put three in your bag, it's $1.99, plug 5 shipping, so you need to order 3?

Heck, yeah I ordered 3. Most people that order 1 are just too excited to switch to 3.

What I really don't understand are those idiots that order 2. I mean, where's the feet ? It's just a buck more for 3...

I cannot believe I missed the Woot off. There are a couple things in there I would have considered getting, too.

No BOC for me in my history with Woot. I haven't even bought anything from there yet.
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

The only thing I picked up during the woot off was the remote control aston martin. Work kills my ability to woot during the day.

That Roomba score would have made my wife all giddy like a little school girl. Apparently you like the ones you already have, do they do an good job, or an adequate job?

Yes, I'm very happy with it.

The Roomba is just great, especially if you have pets that shed hair. I had a brand new carpet that was shedding a lot. After some weeks of Roomba runs, the shedding is gone.
The Roomba does NOT clean corners well, that's a drawback. But overall, I'm really happy with it. I just hate vacuuming, but I love cleaning the Roomba and let it run.

The Scooba is ok, but not as great as the Roomba. It does a good job cleaning, but it might not save you as much time as the Roomba does. It also depends on the size of you kitchen, bathroom or whatever you chose to have scooba'd.

I don't regret getting the Roomba and Scooba, and use both of them on a regular basis.

If you want to know more, just visit Roomba Review - Roomba & Scooba Reviews, News, Coupons & More!

I heard this horror story of a Roomba where the owners left a dog in their house, the dog crapped on the carpet - and the Roomba spread it all over the house
