What's the coolest thing JumboWoot has ever sent you?
I really liked the $20 that I spent on a shirt woot but I've heard of JumboWoot sending out offers for items. What cool stuff have you gotten?

The ability to vote down duplicate questions... :)
I have received quite a few things from @jumbowoot and @loosecannon67
I have appreciated all of them.
Everything from free shirts, to coupons, to a Best Buy gift card, and even an iPod touch.
They're awesome like that
His thanks. Most businesses won't even go that far to show they appreciate members that contribute to the community.
The fact that I got ANYTHING is amazing to me. It's all cool.
@woothulhu: Well said! I agree fully with @capguncowboy too, that they're pretty awesome. I'm fairly new to this level of participation on Woot and I really think it's great!
@woothulhu: I have to agree with you... It's not every day you find a company that actually cares about its customers / users. Woot is a very unique company in that way. I appreciate knowing my business and activity on the site is actually noticed and appreciated.
Me likey free stuff - I would like to receive free stuff - but really though - I love the community aspect of deals.woot to help fellow consumers stretch their dollar & purchasing power...Keep up the fellowship!
Recently I receivde my $20 coupon from Woot! Receiving free stuff is a fantastic way to start the day! Thank you woot for providing us with wonderful social experience!
A purpose in life.
I mean, besides family and work. Really, I meant to put that in.
I love my darthvador shirt. Even Darthvador has breakfast in the morning.
I was going to say that the only thing Jumbowoot has ever sent me is coupons, and those are awesome. But then I remembered that I got a T-Shirt. The coupons are still cooler. But thanks for both!
I got a coupon from JumboWoot... I used it on the random shirts before Christmas... I will tell you this... I will DEFINATELY jump in to the random shirts again next time. Yes it is a crapshoot, but I was not disappointed. 3 AWESOME shirts.
I still have never gotten a Bag of Crap... but the random shirt purchase was fun to wait for with anticipation... it will be as close to a bag of crap as I will ever get... my old computer crashes everytime I try to snag one... ::forever alone face::
THANKS JUMBOWOOT!!! without the coupon I wouldn't have been a hero at Christmas time giving my wife 3 great shirts as a last minute surprise :)
Like @woothulu said, just letting us know we're appreciated is more than I ever expected.. The stuff that @jumbowoot, @loosecannon67 and the other folks have given us is definitely great too though :)
I'll never forget when I got that BestBuy giftcard and a little note - can't remember the last time I got so excited about something like that haha..
For all of us that were around adding deals before the "rewards" started rolling out, I think it's especially appreciated, because we were doing it solely for eachother and the "community" - the prospect of actually GETTING something for it didn't even exist - so when it happened it was completely unexpected, which made it all that much more amazing.
It's kindof a shame that a lot of people are starting to expect gifts and only participate because of the gifts... but hey, whattaya gonna do?
[ed] and just to make clear, I'm not saying the amount of time you've been a member means anything - because it doesn't. Just made it surprising:)
iPod Touch..
The coupon codes have always been awesome, but the iPod Touch & Best Buy Gift Card were big "HOLY COW LOOK AT THIS" moments.
The coupon codes are nice too!
I appreciate @Jumbowoot to the fullest!
@devexityspace: What did you do to earn the iPod Touch?
@devexityspace: Yeah, I'll never forget that iPod.. I saw the Woot! box on my porch and I thought it was this $8 fish knife I'd ordered from a WootOff a few days earlier..
I was like "hm, I thought tracking said this wasn't coming today, cool."
Then I opened it up and it was an iPod.. it's hard to explain something like that heh.. catches you off guard. That was actually from @loosecannon67.. Still use it everyday.
@s21: they were sent out to everyone who posted a top deal for the day in a given month. I was graced with one as well. Super awesome, dont think ill be able to thank Jumbowoot enough.
@drchops: Community Top Pick in a specified month.
His time & patience. When the pitchforks and torches were being waved in the air during the First Insurrection, he took the time to reach out personally to attempt to broker peace. He's a jolly good egg, that one. A right proper fellow. Not a mean bone in his body. I'd let him marry my sister.
@lavikinga: I'd let him marry all of my sisters and give him my best calf. He has made my day with 20 dollar coupons and as long as he continues to roam the deal.woot hallways, this place will continue to be great.
sniff nothing that I can recall......
Just the active interaction between the staff and us in the community is the greatest gift I've gotten.
@devexityspace: Yeah, I got one too. I opened the box when we got back from vacation, thinking,"what did I order that I forgot?" Happy day! :)
Jumbo has sent multiple coupons from $20 to free shipping, it is great to have the comradeship of the community with a company that rewards that community. I love seeing email from Jumbo in my inbox.
@devexityspace: psssssttt I think you meant @s21..
I got a thank you and some sage advice from JW: "Spend it wisely".
The 52" Sony flatscreen was okay, but not as awesome as that^
gold, frankincense, and myrrh
@jumbowoot sent me a $20 dollar coupon code. That was cool, but the coolest thing they have done is to create an environment where interesting and diverse community members are encouraged to be involved. I have been on woot long before the gifts were ever given and I am glad to have watched this little community grow. Thank you jumbowoot for making woot what it is. Thank you to the community for being who you are!!
1 million dollars
The opportunity for VENGEANCE. YOU WILL RUE THE DAY, JUMBOWOOT!
One time I got a box in the mail from Woot that I thought was random but it turned out it was something I ordered.
I've gotten a number of woot coupons and a $50 Best Buy gift card. The generosity of all of which blows me away. The most you typically get from a website is an insincere "Thanks for your order!" with your purchase receipt.
Woot (especially @Jumbowoot) always goes above and beyond the call of duty, which I have yet to see anywhere else
I've gotten a few coupon codes. That's what makes participating on this site fun, that in addition to the conversations of course!.
I got the best buy card and I was very happy, then a week later, I got the Atari Video game system. My wife wanted to know why I bought stuff and I told her they were a gift from @Jumbowoot!. She didn't believe me. I tried to tell her all the time I spend on the computer finally was recognized by a company. I don't ever post questions about getting stuff for free, when @jumbowoot! sends out a coupon code, I always try to start a thread or make sure I thank him/her as soon as possible. I don't expect anything, I don't like it when noobs start posting questions asking when they will get a coupon. If you are lucky enough to EARN one, then you time will come. I like that @jumbowoot! mixes it up too. Posting 100 comments one month and then visiting a certain amount of time or some other theory is the best way to go. Mix it up!
the only encounter with jumbowoot i've had is a coupon code for 10 bucks off my woot purchase, which is way better than nothing.
The $20 coupon for December was my first gift and I was very grateful.. I too am just thrilled to be part of the community with such a great company and staff. :)
I've received a couple of coupons, and the Atari flashback system. Awesome stuff! I was so thrilled to get it.
I've been given far more than I deserve.
Deals.Woot BOC
$50 Best Buy GC
Fresh Crab Shirt
Free Shirt Coupon (Black Triangle-Level Operative)
Atari Flashback 2+ System
4x free shipping coupon codes
Multiple Woot coupons
8gb Ipod Touch & a phone call from Jumbo himself to tell me they sent it to my old address :)
a word to the wise - always keep your shipping info updated.
@wilcononomous: considering i don't recognize your nickname that is indeed more than you deserve. at least you're at peace with it.
@hobbit: Hobbit?? Is that really you or just some imposter who has stolen your identity?
