The original Peeps are marshmallow chicks, but they also have bunnies. They've expanded to other holidays, too. There are pumpkins and purple (presumably the closest they could get to black) cats for Hallowe'en, pine trees and snowmen for Christmas.

Of course I know this. One of the pluses of living so close to the factory. We actually did work there recently and my technician brought me back a bag of goodies

The bag in this one is the camera bags. Each bag of crap set has a theme for a bag. This time is was the camera bags, christmas it was stockings, another one I had was cable bags, and previously red backpacks, etc. One there was even a bucket that said "woot!"

I'm so excited! I actually wanted the phones (which I saw some people were getting, they'll be great for my new house), as well as the camera bag, since I don't have one. A lot of people got the dolls too, I was kind of hoping for the Dr. Laura one but I'm happy with Reagan. A lot of people got a ton of laptop straps too, I have no idea what I'm going to do with them all. And the laser pointer! Just a few weeks ago Zelda was telling me her LOLcats love them, and I was thinking that I should get one for my future kitty, and was kind of hoping one would come in my BOC. Woot is psychic!
