Wootoff or BoC?

[Ika]

Woot just pulled a surprise Woot-off. Think there's going to be a BoC right after this item?

Or

The wootoff a lie.

?

its april fools...

 

[CrackRabbit]

heh a fake woot-off, the same item comes up but with a different description.
man those woot guys are evil
Just noticed something else. The item plugged into the battery pack changes each time...
HAHAHA, woot is going to make a killing selling those things to dumb people.

I know. Evidently, April Fools is traditionally a BOC day. Interestingly enough, the Wiki page for Woot has already been updated concerning this "wootoff" :Q

The second item was the same as the first item. I wonder if I should keep watching in hopes for a BoC.

You know when a kid says ?I don?t like peas!? and the parent says ?Those aren?t peas, they?re tiny cupcakes!? and the kid says ?Cupcakes, wow!? and then the kid eats the peas? That?s the world of corporate branding, the world in which something good is attached to something you probably don?t want in an attempt to drag both down into some dry riverbed of mediocrity and sell out before the water of intelligence comes rushing in. Every company has a different strategy to make this happen. For example, we like to call it ?a Woot-Off?.

But there?s no Box of Cupcakes in the sales strategy for the Black & Decker CP120B 20 Watt Power Backup Battery Pack ? 2 Pack. Just a name that you trust to bring you quality power saws and flat head screwdrivers being attached to a battery pack that can fit in your jacket or purse. And there?s a sticker that says ?Explosion Hazard?.

Didn't they have a $1 million BoC?

Hmm?I know it was in here somewhere?you see it over there? It?s, like, a bag. Like, a brown paper bag, yeah. It?s got an orange question-mark spray painted on it, I think?Hmmm, no, not over here either. If you could look over there under the laundry table, that?d be cool. Just move that junk out of the way-

What? Oh, those things? Yeah, they?re Black & Decker CP120B 20 Watt Power Backup Battery Packs. I don?t know, I guess you?re supposed to, like, charge your phone or your iPod or whatever off of ?em. I don?t know. My grandma gave ?em to me a couple Christmases ago. I just threw ?em down here. They just looked like junk to me. Yeah, sure, if you want ?em, be my guest. I?ll be glad to get ?em out of here.

Anyway, yeah?still not finding that damn bag. It?s really hard to get ahold of, for some reason. Just gotta keep looking, I guess.

:Q WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

DAMN YOU WOOT
DAMN YOU TO HELL

In the box:

* Two 120 Volt AC Chargers
* Two Drawstring Bags

Does that mean 'bag' of crap? o.o

 

[Eeezee]

LOL the bag of crap is up right now

But clicking "I want it now!" just refreshes the page

Those guys at woot.com are evil. I've seen the BoC show up 7 or 8 times, but I've never gotten it!

You need to get it ASAP. You can't get it if you wait like 10 seconds

 

[Kirby64]

According to the wootites, some of them got it. Probably like 10 BoC's then more batteries. Wooo. Some guy said he bought like every battery pack.. what an idiot, multiple hundreds of dollars

 

[Ika]

The first time I clicked "I Want One", I was taken to the order page. After I ordered, Woot then told me the sale was already sold out. I went to my desktop machine and the refreshing page happened. I'm sad
