How Many Whynattes in the Warehouse?
  • We were just loitering around the Whynatte warehouse, sharing lactose tips, and talking about the largest numbers that we know.

    As we walked back into the office, we passed by the mountain of Whynatte kept on hand in the warehouse. Diwang Valdez, always curious about things, turned to me and asked, “How many lattes are there in this warehouse?”

    Good question Diwang, how many Whynattes are there in the Whynatte warehouse?

    Between now and midnight on Wednesday, we’ll take guesses as to the number of Whynattes in the warehouse, and send the reader with the closest guess a free case of latte. Please submit your best guess in the comments section of this post.

    Here are three different views of the warehouse:

    What’s the largest number that our intern knows? Well, he’s in the warehouse counting Whynattes, so we’ll let you know:

    Limit one guess per email address. The winner will be contacted by email on Thursday morning. If your address it outside of the US, you can still play, but you have to pay for the shipping:

  • Many will get close, but there are some partial pallets that you can’t see, or are there? Time will tell. We’ll do the count now, so it will be based on what’s there right at this minute.

  • Well, if we can’t see… then that’s not fair! :P

  • Well it would reason that not all pallets are full pallets, or maybe it wouldn’t. If there wasn’t the possibility of a partial pallet, there wouldn’t be much of a contest, no?

  • Holy shit, someone guessed it exactly on the money. Winner to be announced after midnight. Nice move.

  • Jonah Kaufman, you and your 73,536 lattes step right up, you nailed it right on the money.

    There were 23 full pallets and one partial pallet in the warehouse.

    You can see that there is a partial pallet on the top left of the photo, it was just a matter of how many cases were missing from that pallet.

    A pallet is 128 cases. A case is 24 Whynattes. There were 8 cases missing from the partial pallet. Had the 24 pallets all been complete, there would have been 73,728 lattes in the warehouse. However, since there were 192 Whynattes missing from the warehouse, the total number came to 73,536.

    Well played Jonah. Email us at yakhide@whynatte.com with your address, and we’ll get the case sent out tomorrow.
