I had to go to the link about 10 times before it took me to the BOC.

This sounds like those porn thumbnails where if you click enough times, you'll actually get to the page it's showing.

Sounds like you were pretty persistent about getting that particular piece of porn, eh?

I have gotten about 3 or 4 bags of crap over the years. I figured out one way to get them is to use a woot tracker such as wootalyzer. You leave the wootalyzer running and set it so that it automaticlly will bring up the "buy one" window when the bag of crap pops up.
When the bag of crap comes up, you will get a siren or something and the "buy one" window will try to load but probably won't load. What you do then is click the "buy one" button in the wootalyzer like 50 or more times as fast as you can. You will open up like 50 new tabs all trying to load the buy one page. Hopefully one of those windows will actually load up and allow you to buy the bag of crap. You have to do this almsot as soon as the BOC comes up otherwise you missed it unless its one of those odd game style BOCs.

But did you get anything in those bags of crap that was worth all that effort?

One time we ended up with about 6 or 7 MP3 players. The Sandisk cheapies, 4 gig models. Most of them worked fine. Usually there is something decent in them that makes it kinda worth it. The last BOC was a bust, a box of last years calendars and Roomba wall thingys (some guidance thing, sell for about 10 bux on ebay).
I just do it for the fun of it.
