How I Got Into One Double Oh Seven
Honestly didn’t expect much when I signed up for that “One Double Oh Seven” membership thing last month. Saw some dude on a subreddit raving about it while I was eating cold pizza at 2AM. Thought screw it, I’ll throw my email at them. Filled out their sketchy-looking form while watching Netflix – just clicked boxes saying yes to newsletters and whatever. Paid through PayPal so I wouldn’t get scammed. Boom, confirmation email popped up before the next episode started.
First Perk Hit Like a Truck
Couple days later, this heavy-ass box shows up at my door. Ripped it open thinking “did I order dumbbells?” Nope – free whiskey sampler inside! Eight tiny bottles with fancy labels, even had tasting notes. Drank ’em over Zoom with my college buddies that weekend. Wasn’t some cheap crap either – the bourbon burned real nice. Told my wife “look at this free booze!” She just shook her head. Still got two bottles left for Christmas.
- The booze kept coming – got emailed coupons for 40% off craft beers the next Tuesday
- Random freebies – espresso samples showed up last week with no warning
Nerdy Stuff Was Weirdly Good
Didn’t care about their “exclusive content” until I clicked the members link. Found this dumb spreadsheet where they track local food trucks in real-time. Tested it Saturday – showed exactly when the tacos guy would hit downtown. Saved me waiting in rain like an idiot. Also got this private Discord server where members share coupons. Found one for 70% off batteries I actually needed. Felt like stealing but it was legit.
Almost missed the gadget rentals though. Found it buried in their FAQ – rented a projector for $5 to watch football in my backyard. Delivery dude dropped it off in a Tesla for some reason.
Emergency Thing Saved My Butt
Here’s the wild part – my car died at Walmart last Thursday. Battery completely gone. Remembered the club’s 24-hour roadside thing. Called their number expecting bullshit. Actual human picked up fast, sent a truck in 20 minutes. Dude jumped my battery while I ate Wendy’s in the parking lot. Zero charge. Just flashed my membership QR code from the app. Wife finally stopped laughing at my “secret agent club” after that.
Still figuring out new perks they add weekly. Saw something about free movie tickets this morning but haven’t clicked yet. For thirty bucks a year? Hell of a deal. Might actually renew unless they start charging for the whiskey.
