Today's Woot: 27 June 2006 condition: Refurbished Note: These are available new at various outlets on the WWW ranging from $20-40, however I was unable to find any deals remotely close to 2 for $20, let alone a mere $5.00 shipping.

 Proud to Recommend... I have never had as much fun with a website as I have with Woot.com. Even if they didn’t offer quality products at rock bottom prices with minimal shipping, I would still be a fan of Woot.com if only for their sense of humor. Woot sells one item per day until it’s gone. That’s it. That one item could be anything from a toaster to a remote control car to a big screen TV. You can only buy up to a quantity of three. Even if you want 10, you can only have three. Tuesday is 2-for-Tuesday, and you can only buy one quantity of two items that day because they’re such good deals. One of their most popular items is their Random Bag of Crap. They sell it for a dollar, you’d be crazy not to get a quantity of three, and you pay $5.00 shipping. For $8.00 you get 3 unknown items and a bag. The Random Bags of Crap sell out in minutes after they are advertised (just after the stroke of midnight here in Kansas) so you have to buy fast. Really fast. Like, within the first couple of minutes after midnight. 2500 items can sell out in 2-3 minutes. To really get things going, every so often they have a Woot-off, which is when they sell a set quantity of items until they’re gone, and then they immediately put up a new product until it sells out, and then another, and another, and another. Woot-offs are additive. You can almost get fired from your job during a Woot-off because you’ll skip lunch and meetings to sit in front of your computer to see what’s coming next. And if I haven’t already sold you, visit their site and read the descriptions of the items they sell. I laugh till I cry!

It’s fun. It’s just so much fun.
