All my orders since the 21st of May are still "processing". I submitted a ticket, But behold 5 huge boxes arrived a few hours ago. The 6-in-one generator was one of the boxes. I have it charging now as the instructions suggest.

Got the I-tec charger/booster
Wireless thermometer
Maxell backup battery pack for ipod
GE Home security 7 day timer for lights
Citi screwdriver set
Westinghouse fugly nightlight of a painting
Inland USB smartmedia reader which, frankly, I didn't even know existe
Power sentry 6 outlet power strip
Power sentry 3 outlet swivel adapter
GE etched "glass" nightlight
GE blue glowing nightlight
RCA large point and shoot camera bag

All in all, not bad since I really needed that charger.

FYI, most of the bad reviews I read for this thing are from people who frankly didn't read the instructions.

Don't forget that the battery doesn't automatically stop charging. Charge until the battery is close to full then unplug it or you'll ruin it.

Also, if you want to jump start someone via the car lighter, it doesn't work the same way as if you use the clamps. Plug the battery into the car lighter, wait 20 mins, then unplug it and start the car.

Those 2 tips should negate 90% of the bad reviews for this thing.

Nice! I should be getting mine tomorrow. Just the guaranteed items make it more than worthwhile. Looking forward to finding out what else I get. What was the shipping weight of your box? Mine is 28.3lbs

I got mine this morning. I didn't get shagged, but it was a pretty nice haul none-the-less. I'll post more when I get back home this evening.

Here's what I got got today. Very happy with it. Applause Mine weighed 28.3lbs

I-Tec Charger/Booster
GE Wireless Whermometer

GE Wireless Door Chime Kit
2x 4-Port USB Sharing Switches
Philips 6ft Stereo Audio and Composite Video Cable
Citi screwdriver set
GE 40ft Indoor/Outdoor 16 gauge Power Cord
Over the ear Headphones (generic)
Power sentry 6 outlet power strip
3 Outlet Wall Tap with Auto Nightlight

There was also a letter enclosed stating they included extra items as their "we owe you one" for the infamous mystery box fiasco. I used my 6 coupons on this AMB. By my count, they've more than made up for it. They actually gave more than one: 1. 6x $3.33 coupons 2. Musical Cards 3. Extras in this AMB

They've more than proved to me they care about their customers. That said, I'm still gunshy about mystery boxes and will likely stick to AMB's and regular flings.

Ditto for me, got it, no shag, glanced in the box and had to quickly leave to get to work. Looks like a nice haul, I'm happy, but I don't remember everything to list them until later. I did get some of the same and some different items than the few people who already listed their items. That would account for box weight differences - these boxes are NOT all identical. So if your box weighs more or less than other peoples' boxes, don't fret, it all should still be good stuff. Later.
50 flings (84 counting multiples), $1622 spent!

I got mine today and posted thoughts on the Sunday thread but wanted to post here as well. I would have been ok had my Sunday Mystery Boxes not been exactly the same. A lot of my stuff was really old and from Rite Aid...lmao. I got two of these with the two chargers/power supplies, various plug in junk, power strips, wireless thermometers, nite lites, and cables. Unfortunately I got four times the junk and two more chargers than I needed. I put a ticket in though and we will see what they do. Go flingers!

I don't think I was shagged, but at first I did. Here's the pics of what all I got. I got 2 indoor/outdoor wireless thermometers, but I already opened one up to play a little. Smile

Got mine today - weight 26.5 lbs.
6-in-1 charger
GE wireless thermometer
6 outlet power strip
3 outlet swiveling adapter
Pack of 3 T-type fuses
GE electronic message reminder
RCA 3-device universal remote
USB 6 ft. extension cable
2x USB 4-port sharing switches
Clip-on earphones
Thomas Kincade painting night-light
"We owe you one" screwdriver kit

Decent assortment of goodies, but I was amused by the randomness of the fuses. Like someone else posted before, I'm left with the thought, "Who uses these?".
