Sidedeal a Rama IRK reveal thread
16First!
I also received my refund today and calculated i spent about $13 for a box of regret.
Purple and gold irk bag. PURPLE! 
Men’s cargo shorts. Will go into the bag destined for the homeless shelter
A case of Vegan gummies of questionable taste. BB date is 2024 August and box is dusty so must have been in the warehouse for a while
Big tervis water bottle
Humidifier box is beat up on the back but appears to be new.
Box got taken away from Ladybird. She is in the box chewing phase and I need to save the box to help my mom move to assisted living next month.

@ironcheftoni haha, having been dealing with 80-90% humidity, the idea of a humidifier… basically masochism.
Got my irk with a broken mirror and shards of glass throughout. For safety’s sake my son threw away entire box. Up till now I was thrilled and satisfied with all irk’s. I was afraid to even keep the irk bag because of small pieces of glass caught in fabric.
@user18658159
What kind of mirror was it?
@Star2236 Conair lighted 1x 10x rechargeable. Just had a thin plastic bag over it. Charger cord in bottom of box. 10x side was shattered. Thown out so can’t get any more info.
@Star2236 @user18658159 Was there anything else in the box?
@ironcheftoni
Those foam gummy bears are really good. I ate mine a while ago, sadly I don’t have anymore.
@Star2236 I tried them this afternoon. The texture is softer than regular gummies.
@Star2236 I will also find a way to send them too you… except for the bag I opened of course
@ironcheftoni
You don’t have to but I’d eat them if you do.
@Star2236 if this indeed inevitable, please have mine when they arrive
@Star2236 They aren’t terrible, and I dn’t normally like sweets.
My pup has insisted on and rejected 2. OK, I think she rejected the second… but I didn’t see it. Maybe I’ll just step on it later, like the asparagus she was sure she wanted.
Mine arrived today too!
Thanks, Meh!
@djslack
Hmmm, maybe as Vanilla ICE? “It’s ICE ICE baby! Now get in the van!”
@djslack I thought you’d go on and rhyme the rest of your description too.
@ItalianScallion this is definitional… But shaved designs on hair vs hat pulled low is a battle of design choices to be fought in my head
@Kyeh I wish I’d thought of it!
@djslack @Kyeh
Working on it in my head. I’ll have something this afternoon.
@djslack @Kyeh OK, here you go…
“ICE ICE Baby”
Yo immigrant, we’ll get you
ICE, ICE, baby
ICE, ICE, baby
Alright stop, cooperate and listen
ICE is back with the brand new intervention
Gonna grab a hold of you, cuff you tightly
Throw you in a van, daily and nightly
“Will it ever stop?” Yo, I don’t know
Turn off the cameras, or I’ll get tough, I go
To the extreme, I rock a mask like a vandal
Cover up my face, won’t give you my handle
Dance, rush the crowd that dares to protest
Takin’ you away to a prison with the rest
Deadly if I play a thug, you don’t wanna see
Don’t care that I might do a felony
Love it but leave it, you ain’t gonna stay
You better hit the road, Jose, cuz ICE don’t play
And if you be a problem, yo, I’ll solve it
Kidnap-oops, deport—ICE will resolve it
ICE, ICE, baby
Vanilla ICE, ICE, baby
Vanilla ICE, ICE, baby
Vanilla ICE, ICE, baby
@djslack @ItalianScallion @Kyeh
@djslack @ItalianScallion @Kyeh
I love satire songs
@Cerridwyn @djslack @ItalianScallion @Kyeh
Don’t forget In Living Color’s parody by cast member Jim Carrey:
@djslack @Kyeh
@Cerridwyn, the first video you posted is so much better than my attempt!
@djslack @ItalianScallion @Kyeh
One more
The field I worked in so you know. I always hum this one instead of the real song
@Cerridwyn @djslack @ItalianScallion @Kyeh @narfcake That was such a good bit. Jim Carrey had a lot of talent.
Mine arrived today… but I need to wait until my girls are ready to steal everything as soon as the box is opened
I just got mine. A Dual Air fryer toaster oven from Calphalon, two knee pads and some kind of oil for your face. And of course the purple and gold bag!
Uhm… worst IRK to date? I got a 3/4 or 1 ton truck wheel hub. No irk bag. Nothing else. This seems fishy.
@Roadie, was the package from IR(oc)K Auto?
@ItalianScallion Hah! Nope. There was no IR(oc)K Auto magnet in it either. That would’ve been a bonus! I’m just glad it’s not a greasy used one. lol
The tracking number matches. FedEx tracking shows it came from meh.com in CARROLLTON,TX US.
@Roadie weirdest lazy Susan ever
@Roadie @pakopako Yeah, I noticed that. You put out only one thing, though: nuts, and they’re all the same kind and same size. They don’t look salty, so maybe I’ll try one.
@Roadie Somewhere in Meh warehouse land, some truck driver is cursing as he discovers what was installed was a ramen cooker.
@Roadie I checked and the tracking on that package doesn’t match the tracking number on your order page for this IRK…
@Thumperchick correct, but I don’t have any other orders from meh that are unaccounted for.
@Roadie - I think this explains it. They slapped a replacement label on a box and got it wrong, I’m guessing.
Do me a favor and write in to meh.com/support and ask for me. I’ll dig in and see what we can do.
@Roadie @Thumperchick I’m now imagining the poor truck owner who really needs this part but got a box of expired gummies, a compression sleeve, a fanny pack and a pair of briefs…
@Thumperchick Done. Thanks so much for looking into this!
@shellzy I’m ready to make a deal… but I have what they want and they have my instant regret. Theirs has to be worth more to them.
Got mine today:
I’m keeping the massager and the water bottle, and for now, the Vegobears. Maybe I’ll make vanilla Vegobear ice cream. The rest I’m donating.
I’m not fist-pumping, but there’s certainly no regret with this IRK, especially for $10 or something like that after buying so much other stuff during the SideDeal-O-Rama.
Forgot to add: purple and gold IRK bag!
@ItalianScallion the massager, if it works, is great. It’s fairly convenient to tote around, but expectedly doesn’t give that strong of a massage or heat as the wired-power massager from similar brands.
I’ve seen two models across probably five buys that, when you charge them, there’s a light under the mesh that turns on (despite being a light, it is something you have to look for). One will go from red to green, the other will go from blinking red to solid red.
@pakopako Oh, the massager works! It’s wonderful and plenty strong and warm for me! I read a review on it (pretty positive) and I was surprised how much it cost when it was first sold: typical street price $200. It’s not that good, but it’s good!
@ItalianScallion
You forgot to mention get ladies undergarments.
@Star2236 That’s what the thigh shaper thing is. I guess it’s like Spanx.
@bwiderski Does “solar short torches” mean small solar-powered flashlights or electric lanterns?
@bwiderski @ItalianScallion maybe torches in the brit speak for flashlight? Or those solar powered lights you put in the yard to line the sidewalk.
My IRK arrived today with pretty good stuff! It contained:
A tumbler
A very well insulated water bottle that looks like it might have fallen down a mountain once or twice
A big box of Vegobears. Honestly not as bad as I was expecting
A travel adapter that says CHINA/AUSTRALIA. Those places sound far. A jaunt to the west coast is all I’ll do
And then two boxes that look like they were in a truck that got rear ended by an Abrams Tank
First one was a fabric steamer. Could be useful from time to time. Things happen when you have a dog
Second one was a Dorthy! I have all the coffee things but I’ve never had one of these. Thought about a few time and here we are!
And yay! Purple bag!
1 fugly snow people decoration
1 digital keypad lock
1 little pull string chopper thingie
1 case vegobears (I fucking love these)
4 knee compression sleeves (I guess they thought I was an actual pony with 4 knees?)
1 purple and gold IRK bag- best color yet!
Thanks, Meh!
@Pony Hey, the snow people are better than the lighted ceramic tabletop cross I got in my May IRK.
At least they’re humorously fugly! (Those eyes!)
@ItalianScallion Ohhh yeah. I know people who think this kind of crap is cute, so at least I can make a gift of it.
Not a bad IRK at all, although some of the stuff is definitely not me.
-Vegobears: did not expect to like these. And yet I kinda do. They’re the sort of gummi mild that doesn’t offend my lack of sweet tooth.
-Lavender foot mask booties. Well, I should probably attend to my hooves.
-Unopened LED hair dryer that talks a lot about ions: trying to decide if I’m curious enough to open it, even though I never blow-fry my hair.
-Brookstone 3-in-1 charging stand, that looks pretty nice… but I don’t do Apple these days.
-Auto-locking voice/ fingerprint/ app activated deadbolt… which is pretty timely, because one aging deadbolt has just stopped being lockable by key. Gonna install that this weekend.
OH! And purple bag with gold print.
@brainmist OPE, the Lockly deadbolt has a registration card that claims it’s as important as my driver’s license to identify ownership.
So weird, kinda thought my name on the property deed did that.
Mine is not terrible, but not real useful.
*A box of Mint brand Teeth Whitening Strips. Never heard of this brand, but what could go wrong? Not pictured.
*Magic Hands in a box that looks like it’s a non-working return. donate if it works, toss if it doesn’t.
*Vego Bears! These are tasty and will probably end up sugar loading the grand kids.
*Tervis Tumbler. I must have 6 of these in different sizes. I rarely use them, but this one is big enough to be useful but not one of those half gallon monsters too big to carry.
*Tommy John briefs that won’t fit me. Gift to my skinny neighbor.
*A tiny fanny pack. Big enough to hold a driver’s license or a small wallet and not much else.
*A pair of (Womens?) tights, size large. Like I’m going to gift these and say, “Looks like they fit you!” Maybe they go with the fanny pack.
*Purple IRK bag.
My IRK arrived yesterday and lived up to its name:
A Hunter large tower air purifier HP670 ($159 if it was new - clearly an open-box return item, in pieces, frankly nervous to plug it in)
Savvy Cie Jewels “Affordable Luxury” necklace w/ broken clasp (garbage)
One bag of Brutus Bone Broth Biscuits (neighborhood free page - my dog can’t eat them)
Purple/gold IRK bag (will go in pile of other unused tote bags)
Ah well.
@tunnelhead Update: I did check the air purifier to make sure it wasn’t full of expired vegan gummie bears. Nope, just a filter.
June IRK: purple IRK bag, gamer light strip, tacticool backpack, bamboo pillow, medium size gray jogging pants
Not sure I know anyone who can fit the random pants. The pillow might be good though.

I’m jealous of some of these IRKs. Best thing I got was the purple and gold bag
Mine arrived this morning. It’s a good thing mine included a bag, because the box arrived like this, with only the bag keeping the contents inside:
Contents:
My kid might enjoy the fidget keychains? Maybe I’ll try the eye masks; I do look as tired as I feel.
I don’t actually regret this one at all. My haul:
I like the quilt set, we have lots of junk to store under the bed, and some filthy windows. The wife has also claimed the purse and bag. So I think everything may actually get used this time. Thanks Meh!
I have vowed I wasn’t going to do this again but I did because it was actually on the right website. And it was beyond mediocre. Only thing capable is the green bad. They are dog and cat wipes I don’t have a pet, two of those fidget keychains which I already have one on my keychain is a Tesla flashlight even though it’s not much of one some eye mask and body scrub neither which I will use so they will go in the donation bin and a knee compression support up and down size because I haven’t opened it.
I LOVE YOU MEH
I received a deep red Cuisinart enameled large cast-iron pot
It’s perfect cuz I love cooking
It’s Cuisinart version of Le Creuset
The small boxers will go to my daughter and I love the green IRK bag
@pattyrusk1 it’s red so that makes me jelly
Purple and gold bag
2 lip/eye plumper serum
2 eye shadow primer
Body scrub
And super excited about a smart chair pad (copied image from online, not my photo)
Cuisinart Griddler
Genevieve Silver tennis bracelet (worth $300!)
Two travel adapters
Men’s shirt
Tote bag
Wow. No regret here. Got a 3 piece luggage set (it’s pink, but the wife likes it) 2 knee braces for my bum knee, a small pair of purple undies that might fit the dog, and a green bag. Happy with it, Amazon not so much when I return my wife’s $175 luggage she just bought in favor of the $40 IRK luggage.
Wow. This is a first for me! 2 knee braces, and IRK bag annnnnnd
A Cosori Smart 5.8-quart air fryer… box.
What. The. Actual. Fryer. Also, whoever returned it failed to clean it out after cooking a batch of onion rings in it. Let’s keep it classy, people!
@Jasongb
Nice, I’ve always wanted one.
@Star2236 - which one? The one pictured on the box, or the model that was actually inside it? 'Cause they are two different things!
@Jasongb
Just an air fryer in general, not enough to buy one but I’ll take it in an irk.
@Jasongb Does it work?
Air Purifier - (great but I already have one that doesnt seem to do much) Give to friend or donate.
4pk fidget thingies - "
Sm underwear - "
Green IRK bag - Keep
Thank you!!
@GzBiH just throwing it out there if I get one of these in an irk I will mail the warehouse cookies made with it.
@GzBiH @Sneakertree I got one in my last Irk and gave it away.
@GzBiH yea but not to me or you’d have bourbon chocolate chip cookies
@Sneakertree @yakkoTDI this is the second one they sent me. First one black, it didn’t come with splash guard, this one has it and I love the color. In general I love appliances.
But this one I’ll have to part with 
Will give it daughter that’s getting married, she’ll need it, and it’s brand new! 
@Sneakertree honestly I wish I knew their address and who to send them to, I’d be more than happy to do it. 🫶
@GzBiH great color! Mine is just the standard gunmetal grey but i did spruce it up with stickers to make it look like the nose of a WW II fighter jet
Purple bag
Opened TruMedic vibrating ball impact therapy device (haven’t tried yet to see if it works).
The organic vegobears gummies others are getting (gave that to a down the hall vegetarian who makes a big deal about her very healthy diet. HA! If that was the case she wouldn’t have accepted this candy from me. Told on herself
).
Water bottle
No name brand black knives with plastic handles in somewhat opened packaging. I have knives so will rehome them.
Better than some irks I have gotten by far but also not the best irk I have gotten by far either. Thanks meh!
I think this was my favorite IRK thus far. For years I have eyed the stackable Calphalon pans but they’re so damn pricey, even on sale. Well, I only paid $30 for my stainless set
Totally worth it! I also got 2 pairs of small boxer briefs 
, 3 keychain things that my kiddos is loving 
, and green and blue bag. 
Worth it! I’m so happy! And so is the hubs cuz now he doesn’t have to hear my desires for these pans
@Gamblam Awesome on the pans. And your kids love the fidgets. It doesn’t get any better than that.
POPSOCKETS! SPROCKETS! DAVY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
Touchpad digital lever lock (I got the same thing in my previous irk)
Gummy bears
Purple gold bag
Cargo shorts - size 40 too big
Bracelet
Some other jewelry thingy
Knee compression sleeve (x3)
Foot mask x4
Someone sticks (s/m)
Yellow polo shirt xl
@robteaboy if you don’t want the cargo shorts or the foot masks, send me a whisper. I’ll happily pay for shipping. I know someone who is complaining about the heat who needs shorts.
Not the best. Not the worst. Lots of extremely usable goodies. I love the knee sleeves as they help me with the heavy lifting of the squats. Also I’ve been having lots of shoulder and arm pain so I’m intrigued by the pain cakes. I’ve nearly purchased them before so this is a pleasant surprise. I actually love kombucha though I’ve never had this one. Hoping I like it. There was also a charcoal chimney which isn’t pictured. And the BAG!!! I went to LSU and they just won the college World Series in Omaha so this is perfect!
Now I just need a set of the triple ply stainless or carbon steel pans guys!!! I’ll send meals and or treats as a sign of my appreciation and admiration!
Received Wednesday.
ProBreeze Foldable Desk Fan with Touch Screen
$34.99 on MorningSave, $79.99 on ProBreeze website but sold out with last comments 6/2022.
Nice fan with powerful airflow, remote control, and folds to fit in a drawer. Got good reviews on manufacturer’s website. No surprise but fan is really quite good, quiet, with timer, variable speeds and many other options. Just in time for the hot, miserable Texas summer.
2 Comfort Republic Boxer Briefs size S, one orange, one blueberry
Got XL T-shirt and S Boxer Briefs in last IRK (May 2025). As @kyeh suggested in that reveal, Mr. Incredible could use these. Will throw these two briefs with that batch and hope I draw Mr. Incredible in the next meh exchange.
Fidget keychain with bright light
Will use since it comes with a bright light.
Popular Mechanics Battery Converters AA to C/D
My experience is AA not powerful enough to drive C/D flashlight so end up buying C/D batteries.
Package of 3 Chengde KN95 face masks, exp. 9/2022
Will wear on next flight to Seattle even though 3 years past expiration just to look cool.
True + Luscious
Flowerdose plumping lip and eye serum
Angel Eyes eyeshadow primer/base
Give to friend’s daughter.
Purple and gold IRK bag
Thank you meh.
@rcwbbb I guess a household with different sized guys would work, too - but if you do get a Mr. Incredible we need to see pics of him modeling them.
@Kyeh
Agreed. That will be a requirement.
Purple and gold IRK bag is the only useful thing in my IRK. Horrible vegan gummies, some led eye light which I am not going to trust with my eyes. 5 single use lube packets. What a waste of money. I am aware I should expect much but looking at others I feel left out
@ruthwik1 you can probably flip the eye fact mask and itll more than pay for the irk so you can be ready for your next regret!
Received purple and gold irk bag, 3 knee braces (husband wearing them to work) 4 motion cameras in one box, iPhone wireless charging station, 2 magnetic notebooks, awful gummies that I tossed. Not a bad box at all
Im so confused by my IRK. Ive gotten crap but this is the first time Ive gotten confusing crap. Its taken me this long to post because I was trying to figure out what the hell game thing was sent to me and it turns out its the scoreboard and electronic parts to those basketball games you play at the arcade. Minus the basketball game thing itself. Then I got a sealed box of hearing aids with the word IRK on them… ? A sad cracked and broken clothing steamer which almost made me cry since I actually would have loved it. A pair of shaper tights in small/medium which in theory I could wear but meh and the best thing was a refurbished seems to be working just missing a box shark wandvac which is the exact thing I bought at side deal to refund my irk! I gifted the still in box one that we jadnt opened to my dad and he’s happy so yay! But yea most interesting assortment of stuff yet.
4 dog/cat grooming wipes
2 puffy eye masks
1 face scrub
1 knee compression sleeve
1 green IRK bag
2 faux keyfobs that don’t do anything but maybe light the tiny flashlight
Truly regretted paying full for this
