I'm sure many of you are familar with Woot and many of you wooters know about their 'Bag of Crap' for a $1, which contains random items.

Well, one guy got... a Nintendo Wii as one of his items.

Un-freakin' believable.

I tried to get in on that bag of crap but Woot was so slow it was unusable.

Well, that should spawn another four months of 'where's my BoC with a game system for eight bucks!' bitching in the fora there.

How do you 'play' woot/bag of crap? I was looking and it makes no sense

I think you pay for it like you do a normal item though I've never bought anything from Woot after that dead HD they sent me a year or two ago.

Woot usually sells one item per day and that's it, but when they have a "woot off" they have a lot of items come on in succession and sometimes there is a "bag of crap" offered. You can get up to 3 "craps" for $1 apiece (plus $5 shipping for all of them). Most of them apparently are just random pieces of crap that they had around the warehouse, but they throw in stuff like this (and big screen TVs) just to keep people interested. Check out the wikipedia article on woot if you still don't understand. It's pretty good.
