These phones are nice, but who the hell uses a land line anymore?
Are you serious?
Most of the people I know argue it is a waste of money.
I argue for 3 bucks a month, I like to know I have a backup if someone breaks into my house at 3 A.M. or some other serious shit goes down at home and I don't have my cell phone handy.
Whoops, looks like I'm four hours late to the party. Don't worry, you probably only missed four Roombas, three Sansas, a talking Elvis head and some Bacon Salt.
It's all fun and games until the two-pack of pistachios shows up, that's like woot-off halftime. You've got a few hours to sit and nurse your overused credit card while everybody realizes they don't want to buy things like pistachios and a 5-pack of old games for a macintosh.

I've gotten one BoC in the wild before, and I've gotten one on one of the days when they're expected (next expected day: April Fool's Day. Expect it to cost $6,000,000, but have a coupon for $5,999,997)
I got through to the "Order received, checking inventory" page on the BoC. No idea if it went through or not. It hung up before giving me any response, but at least I know the server got the initial order!
EDIT: Woohoo! I got it! Got through to the My Account page and have 1x "Random Crap" listed as a recent purchase!
Looks like this is starting up again. I can't remember the last time I bought something from one of these. I think I may have lost that loving feeling.

I'm keeping an eye on it, but not too closely. The woot-offs seem to get worse and worse each time, and so far this one doesn't seem to be an exception.

Wow, has it been a year? I'm sure they've had several Woot-Offs since then, but I never really check unless someone reminds me about it here, so it's been a while for me.
Let's see if they've gotten any better since then.

Nah, not really.
I did get a BoC on Christmas, though. 5 t-shirts, a backpack, two hats, and three tote bags.
damns, i refreshed when the BoC was at 100% in stock, immediately clicked on i want one! and then proceeded to time out clicking on it, sad face panda bear.

First season of When We Left Earth for free - use coupon code BLASTOFF before purchase (therre's a little link that says Redeem a gift card or code below the video window)
How do people even get those things if this is how it works?
i've missed maybe 4-5 bags with identical circumstances
