Did I miss the memo about not asking what was in your BOC?

Jun 3, 2012 9:58 PM

Is there some other place to share the goodie-list? If so, pretend I didn't post this.

7 slightly stained or misprinted golf balls
1 SKIL screwdriver set (spouse was pleased)
1 woman's large t-shirt, sort of golden yellow color
1 black sport bag or duffel bag
1 spitball target thing
1 Terrific Turkey turkey-timer probe thing for making sure the turkey is done just right

Definitely an improvement of my last BOC!

Out of all the BOC's Ive gotten, my first few (back in the day) were awesome.. now they seem to be similar to yours.. except add a kids-barbie backpack =D..

I miss getting 4+ Sansa MP3 players, Darth Vader cells, Vinyl Star Trek Figurines, GPS's, etc..

I've sorta been coveting that goofy turkey timer. Even though we usually do our turkey a la Good Eats Romancing The Bird and use a higher end thermometer, my kitchen junk drawer needs something like that to pull out on Turkey Day.

Congrats! Sounds like you hit the BOC lottery. I've been pleased with the 2 I've received, and there's always the satisfaction that comes from beating everyone else ;)

You can list it here. The link is usually listed somewhere in the first dozen pages of the Woot Community BOC discussion.

I forgot to mention the bar of Extra Virgin Pure Olive Oil Soap (whose list of ingredients includes panthenol propylene glycol, chlorphenesin.methylisothiazolinone, Yellow 5 and Blue 1.

It's actually very nice soap and something that will be used.

@107bear: Patience is a virtue. I've been around since early 2005 and didn't get a BOC till last November. Come to think of it, though, I'm not sure I'd been trying to get before 2010 or so. For the most part, of course, it's just a ... wait for it ... crap shoot.

Hey! I just noticed someone changed my original tags! I cannot imagine why someone wouldn't like "you-want-to-put-that-probe-WHERE?"

Go to woot and hit community. Click on last post and you'll find the forum for the BOC. It's around 60 pages right now but everyone is posting pictures and the contents of their bags. Mine is suppose to be here the 6th.

@maggie3052: Many thanks for the pointer -- I don't frequent that side of the playground very much and I don't think I'd have found the place on my own.

No BoC for me this time... :(

@lavikinga:

I also use Alton Brown's method with a more capable timer/thermometer.

I have four of the Turkey Timer things, two or three of them unopened. If you want more than one, PM me your address and I'll send you one or two more.

@lavikinga: I was going to offer you a Turkey Timer too! Looks like you already hit the jackpot. I have a box filled with excess BOC items ready to go to Goodwill, and I haven't even received the one from the last Woot-Off.

Most people answer on the forum or on the unofficial tracker.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
