My money is on 15. I don't think it'll be as crazy this time since Christmas is passed and I bet some of that stuff was for gifts.
I think 5-10. The item quality isn't really up to par this time around. But, if he got the @jumbowoot gift this morning, he might decide to use some of it depending on how much he got.
More than you :)
EDIT: More than me :(
Enough so that woot certainly won't be hurting by my brokeass's lack of purchasing. Le sigh.
If I thought I would receive a box of chimps, I would be wooting like crazy :)
@theoneill555: Wasn't there only like 4-5 flying monkeys in the box he got last month. Certainly not worth the 30+ items he had to purchase during the woot off to receive them. Perhaps there will be an offer of flying monkeys in this woot off that you can purchase to satisfy your desire until next month.
I imagine most of last months purchases by @Cowboydann were for gifts so this month's woot off purchases will likely be minimum. Maybe 3-5.
@gideonfrost: Okay, for goofy questions, this one's pretty good. :-D
I'm fascinated to know what brought it on, though. Were there previous conversations about poor Mr Dann that show his inability to resist woot offs? Perhaps a secret habit that you know of, and are willing to spread to the rest of the Internets? Links, I need them.
@shrdlu: Didn't cowboy confess to making something like 30+ purchases during the last woot off? I remember reading it in a question/post a while back.
@gideonfrost: That's what I'm feeling too, Maybe a little less. a little was for making a quick buck but a lot of the woots last year were for gifts (or future oh sh- I forgot to get you something...so that's nice) I told myself I wouldn't spend more than 100 dollars on myself but if I find stuff I know is an easy re-sell I'll buy more :P Here is the tally so far:
Duracell 1800mAh Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack – 2 Pack x3 (resale honestly)
Screaming Mini Monkey Keychain with Woot Cape x3 (personal obviously)
Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 x3 (easy handout mice for the price, Also I bought out the colour @w00tgurl wanted)
2012 Woot! Calendar x3 (well... just because)
Terrific Turkey Digital Meat Thermometer x3 (too cheap and I can give out to people during thanksgiving time)
Todd’s Bayou Dirt Seasoning x3 (ALWAYS buy 3 dirt)
I bought a Nevermore shirt to keep it in the running 2 more weeks and todays shirt.
I'm Halfway to your prediction Gideon I think you're right!
I'm lost as who woh cowboydann is other than what I've just read here. You buy so many things that you're famous?
@starbob: I am a couple woots shy of 200 woots in 7 months.
@cowboydann: Where do you resell? I have been thinking about doing the same thing but have not had much luck selling other items using ebay.
I have over 550 woots between multiple accounts, just got my 300th with this account last night (and 301st this a.m.). I used to resell a lot on eBay and Amazon but the woot deals aren't as good (read "profitable") as they used to be so now mainly buy for myself and gifting. Over the past year most of my woots have been wine.
@wisenekt: mostly ebay for the easy sales. Swap meets and craislist for others. Then coworkers usually see all the cool things I got and they will want to buy them sumtime. Sorry it took a while to get back to you
Final Tally: 20 woots. I'd say 6 of those were just <2 dollar items.
Made my 200th purchase (and was also the first sucker) with the Flying Pig.
Overall a pretty good wootoff.
@cowboydann: I had 1 and it was from home.woot.
@gideonfrost: Please tell me it was the tumblers!
Also the final number would have been 14 had it not been for the 3rd day.
@cowboydann: Nope the Stock Pot for 19.99 Used one of my 20 dollar coupons I just moved and inherited a whole set of pots minus the stock pot.
