What’s in it? We can’t tell you that, except to say that you will probably be disappointed. After all, when we call it the “Instant Regret Kit,” we’re not playing.

So fun!
I legit didn’t know what to expect. This was our first time buying one of these, but we knew it would be fun and funny regardless of what came in it based on the description. We were not disappointed! So funny just seeing all the random things they put in the box; some actually semi-useful, some not. Nonetheless, I will definitely be doing this again!
Dudes/ettes! Merry Christmas To ME!!
I needed this one today, I always like getting surprises delivered anyway but this one? Cuisinart? Acoustic Research? AND stuff other people will enjoy? You out did yourselves and put a big ole smile on my grumpy face. Thank you, you made my day!!
Very interesting!
Glo-Pro micro needle set (or torture device?) will give it a try, wireless charging mouse pad, house shoes, charging battery with mirror (so I can recharge my phone and ???), mattress pad, queen size, perfect. Fun box, thank you.
Really?
What am I supposed to do with an awesome set of non stick pans and many great gifts for others? Terrible Idea! Now I have to play spring santa… thanks alot…5 mehs on the side.
Doesn’t disappoint from the expected disappointment
IRK averaged to amazingly meh, exactly what I expect from a company that strives to be mediocre. (jk, the IRK was a lot of fun, as always.) One of my favorite companies and set of sites. Keep up the great work!
Never disappointed..
Lots of gifts since its too small or femmie. But always worth the wait. Got the Belvita Banana
bisquits- still working on case from 6 mos ago! Got a femmie dressie shirt; handbag tote; exercise bands; and of course IRK bag in neon orange! Always grateful.
One person's trash is another ones treasure
Despite getting a nearly identical set of items to someone who considered everything as trash, enough of the junk was treasure to me.
Note that the price and terms vary each time these are offered. This one cost $30 but included $10 off of a separate qualifying purchase. In this case, I was going to make the other purchase anyway. So net cost to me was $20 this time.
Super IRK!
I received my Instant Regret Kit yesterday, and have zero regret. Three-piece Olympia hard-sided luggage, two Quench Micro Water Complex hand lotion, and one Stevia sweetened granola that went straight into the trash. Thank you, Side Deal/meh!
Regret is mine, all mine
My daughter claimed the makeup box. My husband put on the eye massager and r played “slap dad and run away” which was worth the whole regretful price in itself. I got a coat with a cut. 10/10 will regret again.
Much Better Than Advertised or Expected
IRK @ $30 US, minus $20 against the product I wanted anyway from Meh (which was 60% less than I paid for the first one I owned), a kitchen item I needed, and some throw-ins my family has already claim. The only regret for me is that I never bought one of these before.
Meh. The best...
Family members make fun of me for ordering from Meh. I went a tiny bit nuts on ordering during the last meh-rathon. But I just received an ARMFUL of pkgs from UPS plus my . 01 Instant Regret box. Ummm… amazing… LOL. Thx meh!!!
Pretty sweet honestly
The only regret is that I already own an air fryer but this one does rotisserie which is cool. Also got playing cards which is nice not too bad all in all
So much regret!
It was just as advertised! My kitchen has never been cleaner! I lost 15 lbs the first week! On those quiet, moonless nights… I can hear the vibrations of the universe.
Great Assortment
Imaginative, large variety of miscellaneous items (mostly clothing). All things considered, terrific value.
WOW!
This was a great IRK! I’ll be posting pics soon, but must say, loving my 11 piece Cuisinart pots and pans!!
This was a wild ride for sure
the box was something i didnt expect for sure, and the contents provided much less regret than i was expecting. all in a wild ride
No Regrets, Regrettably
Undercabinet lights
Slipper socks
Large candlesticks
Cinnamon Cereal
Knit cap
Blue bag
Arrived in time for wedding shower
Please Do Not Order this
I order every time. Always disappointed. It truly is instant regret. Do not buy this.
Never disappoints!
Or always disappoints! Either way, I love it! Did I get a pair of leggings for my daughter and an inflatable turkey for my son?? Yes, I did!
Amazing 👏
Got a awesome 3 piece Olympia Lancer Hardcase set of suitcases and some other goodies to boot! Yall are the best
What a nice surprise!!
I love the steam mop; BS necklaces; IRK coin;
wrist sani thing. Totally worth the deal!
First time receiver
The things I had in the box was medium level items. Never received my mech. Items my thoughts on participating next time we will see
Christmas Came Early
By chance or miracle, this kit checked off several items on my gift list. 5 out of 5, zero regrets.
Banger of a box
Definitely got a win this time. I needed new luggage and somehow the mystical powers of IRK provided.
Most disappointing IRK yet. I love it!
As far as the contents, nothing much to write home about but I still love the thrill of opening one of these boxes of junk.
THANK YOU ♥️
Love everything! Especially the Cuisinart convection Bread Maker!
Awesome
My IRK was filled with a good mix of quality swag. Totally got my money’s worth on this one!
Got some good stuff
I would say I got my moneys worth this round! Good job packing
Mattress topper with cover
This was great, even came in the right size. Great irk
Killer deal
Ended up with a nice Shark bagless pet vacuum and some random odds and ends. Awesome!
Regretfully Awesome!
I wish I could say I regretted it but even the regretful ones make me smile.
Wow what an IRK
Thanks Woot for the best IRK ever! Cool stuff!
Cool hand blown wine glasses
Very cool IRK. Worth the $15
Meh
I’m never always disappointed.
Well as the description says, it’s a bunch of crap. Went straight to the domain box. Mad at myself for not getting the additional orders to cancel out the $100 price but no one to blame but myself. You got me meh!
I got underwear I didn’t know I needed.
Worth what I paid.
It came with one of those percussion massagers, but a good one. This model is at an “on sale” price elsewhere for $119. A few $20 products. Two cheap ones. Well worth the money spent.
Got a whole case +1 of obsolete trackr pixels!
Got a whole case of obsolete trackr pixels! Plus 2 meh fukuboru shopping bags, 2 phone back ring stands, 1 large bottle of hand sanitizer, and a box of Love Corn. Got the Trackr working with a new battery and the Swiftfinder app.
Even Less Regrettable Than the Previous One
Emergency multitool, 20 sheets of cardstock, another beanie, a pair of sweatpants the wife likes, an actual IRK bag.
Like my IRK
I plugged in the machine and used it right away. It’ll take a few tries to figure out the difference modes but I like it. No regrets here.
i guess i don't know what i expected
i got a bunch of hand sanitizer and a teapot that won’t work on my induction stove.
Happy with my purchase!
My elderly mother loved it
My mom loves to open these, in the past they have been super useful. This time my mother felt that it was special for her. Old Santa figurines that light up… Oh man she is so stoked, she feels seen. End result as always it is fun. While not worth the price, as long as my mother is happy, worth it. Also she digs the bags…
If I was a woman... with hair... or had Apple products... then this would be a win.
I received a size medium woman’s pajama top, a hair styling kit with a flat iron and fancy curler, a13" MacBook Air hard case, an iPhone 5 phone cover, a " my first tool kit" plush toy that makes sound on each plush version of tools obviously made for toddler’s age kid, a plastic case to store uncharged and charged batteries in, a big white Meh shopping bag, oh and a bag of ginger chew candies. Being an adult single male that is bald, who incidentally had tried ginger candies in the past and didn’t like them, and who has no children…
makes this a complete fail for me, but it would have been worth the money to someone.
Instant Regret is Right!
Definitely not as fun as the illustration, I’d suggest not including gender specific items, I have no use for three pairs of men’s briefs.
Disappointing
I don’t normally expect much. A laugh or two at least. This was… awful. But it does live up to it’s name.
Stop with the TrackR’s
Stop with the TrackR’s already. They’re trash, cannot be used or even given away. Just recycle them and stop torturing us with them, please.
Not worth it.
I got mostly stuff i can’t use. Probably won’t buy anymore.
Would have been great but...
Everything was extra large or 1x or worse 2x I take a small medium the slippers are great but a size too big .all good quality merchandise just can’t use any of it
IRK
This was my first time buying an IRK. It was a regret. I don’t drink it had a martini glass two small Meh t-shirts, 3 rubber Meh bracelets, a Meh bag, a brown clutch, and two bands that
look like they can be used for exercise and two expired packs of ramen. They say you get what you pay for. I won’t make this mistake again. I can’t think of anyone that would want anything that was in here.
Definitely regret it
I mean for a hundred dollar box i figured id at least get a box full of random stuff they couldn’t sell off but this time was really bad all things under $5 i got a dog toy, a screen protector for iphone x, extra patches for a machine i dont have, and two broken rc ufo toys. Will not buy again.
Yeah.. IRK
Spent $100 got back ~$50 not even worth it compared to Woots BOC sorry Boys and Girls but ehh not at all worth it. Will not b
Win some, lose some
2 out of 3 irks have been pretty terrible. This one was the worst of the bunch.
Outdated
Most things are for older electronics and I can not use it
Expired Food and Unwearable Clothing
Just throw that food away! Stop sending it to people.
Ugh it’s all too small
Cool slippers and pjs, too bad I’m a giant and they are size small.
Not much in it besides paint
Disgusting.
I would’ve been happy with the IRK bag, meh beanie and super hero socks if they wouldn’t been packed with a used vacuum that that was full of dust and dirt and whatever else it was used on. I think I’ll pass on irks from here on out.
Wasn't delivered
Do postal workers know the legendary status of the IRK? I’m so sad, I have to convince myself it was a bunch of iPhone 8 cases and that smart coffee that was canceled last week.
I love Meh and the Meh family, and I know this one isn’t on them.
Def what it says on the box
Wish they’d state it was going to be clothing. None of it is my size or style. Only thing I can use is the tote and the box it all came in.
It's called instant regret for a reason
For someone on a Keto diet, receiving 20lbs of Linguini was almost a spit in the eye. It will be donated to a local food bank so it doesn’t go to waste at least.
Definately did not get $50 worth of stuff.
Offloading unusuable junk.
Received 8 track R pixels which are from a company that went out of business years ago and the devices are no longer compatible with Apple or android devices as of 2021……
Oh my gosh...SOOO disappointing.
I mean, I know it’s IRK but $100 IRK and Ingotn6 pop rings (i got 4 in my last kut), a tablet case, a roll of wall paper, and a box of cigarette lighter phone chargers. It’s pretty sad when you spend $100 and the one only thing you get out of it is a reusable shopping bag.
Yep, Instant Regret is Right
I got 4 iPhone screen protectors and 4 phone Grip and Stands, a plastic organizer I can get at the Dollar Store for $1, a wall decal of a city I’ve never been to and a laptop hard shell that won’t fit any of my laptops. Live and learn
Absolute disappointment.
Definitely a regret. Basically the IRK bag and 3 things I can buy at ROSS dress for less for 2.99 each. I normally would say you get what you paid for, but this was a ripoff. Goodbye mediocre, you finally lived down to your name.
Don’t, just don’t.
I know they cut a deal on this if you bought the mehrathon but this costs more for them to ship it then what was in a the box. A horrible mop & an iPhone 6/7 case. Just no! I will never again.
Not worth the money at all
3 items in pack I paid $65 for. One was bath salts with the $5 discount sticker still on. PJ pants and face massing kit.
not even close or being worth $50.
Last time I get shammed into over of these things
I got some COVID masks, a deck of cards, and a MacBook cover.
I don’t even have a MacBook and this stuff would probably cost less than $50 if I did want it.
Contained 1.5 lbs of expried snacks
I’ve been ordering IRKs for years and know the drill. This is the first time I’ve ever been sent 1.5 lbs of expired food. Here was their response:
"Ashley (Mercatalyst)
Apr 6, 2024, 4:21 PM CDT
Hi there!
Expiration dates tell consumers the last day a product is safe to consume. Best before date on the other hand tells you that the food is no longer in its perfect shape from that date. It may just lose its freshness, taste, aroma or nutrients."
Umm no - the package reeked and the date was expired. I only checked because the rotten pumpkin spice smell was so strong.
I’m all about the IRKs usually. I’ve gotten a broken rumba previously and once received 5 lbs of fettucine and have never complained because it’s an IRK. But 1.5 lbs of expried food cannot even be donated.
With the increase in cost, be warned. Expired food with no possible refund may be coming your way. I even suggested a new IRK sans expired food but have not gotten a response. They’ve lost a long time customer.
Never again
I know as something called the “instant regret kit” that it’s going to be random items that I’m not going to all instantly love. But it was four items and a bag, two of the items were clothing (cheap and obviously won’t fit), with wax and some white acrylic paint to round things out. There is no way the original retail value of those four items was $50.
Instant Regret Kit is Awful
I was excited to finally get an IRK because everyone seems to love them. I received old, broken jewery…a tacky cheap brooch with missing stones and earrings that had tarnished ear wires that looked like Tetanus also came with it. Don’t buy these. They’re awful and not worth the price.
a mostly empty box, containing an empty box
After years of trying to get one of these, I finally splurged on the $50 Instant Regret Kit on Black Friday. I was expecting to be disappointed, but not as disappointed as I ended up being, opening a large box that only contained some charcoal wipes, poo poori, and an empty box for a hair straightener.
0/5, but at least I can cross “what’s in an Instant Regret Kit” off my things to wonder about list.
wtf
I don’t mind getting the bag of trackr pixels but they are useless since the app is no longer available. Oh and a case of cinnamon cereal that is out of date not to mention it’s loaded with sugar and carbs. IGR to the max.
Charged $100 for trash in a box
Meh/Mediocre has really started living up to its name. I’m legitimately appalled at them right now. I got a box of garbage and charged $100 for it.
100% instant regret!!!
I know this is all in good fun, but covid masks? Really? Hard for that to be funny. Good job on the regret part tho!
Worst one yet
Pair of men’s underwear, small back support, 3 tubes of red acrylic paint, a usb micro power bank, and a big bag of masks.
Truly regrettable
Products that don’t even work and not even collectively worth the $50 I paid. Oh well live and learn.
T’was definitely an instant regret
Now I know why they call it an “instant regret kit” that’s the last time I’ll (probably) ever do that again
Instant regret!
2 wristlet purse things, a xl Jean long sleeve shirt and a medium pair of gray shorts…
absolute scam
huge box full of useless dollar store trinkets and antiquated tech accessories. fool me once and I’m out.
More expired cereal
Got a giant box of cereal that expired half a year ago.
Arrived broke and cracked
This Fitpulse vibration exercise plate arrived cracked on both ends …
Expected trash, got trash, still disappointed.
6 boxes of expired cereal is not cool.
Nothing for me
Everything in the box was gendered, aged, or sized.
Trash
Please stop dumping e-waste and products without FDA approval on paying customers.
Come on
Worst one yet. Do better folks come on now.
I regretted this
Just junk barely worth anything
Half empty bag!
This was never worth the $50
I don’t think the stuff that I got was even worth $100. Very disappointed
