Default Woot.com; Fun little site!

My friend just told me about woot.com and it's a site that sells electronic products. The site features ONE product a day at a highly discounted price. Today it was a Blu-Ray Disc player for around 140. Everyday the product changes, ranging from televisions to thumb drives.

They also have sister-sites shirt.woot.com and wine.woot.com. Just wanted to spread the word, I like to keep my eye on these sites everyday

Yeah woot.com is awesome. Sometimes you can get some sweet deals. Just gotta check everyday and one day you might find something you like. They also do this thing called bag of crap. Its $1 and you get a bag with some random stuff in it. They sell out fast.

dont forget about

sellout.woot.com
shirt.woot.com

and wine.woot.com

they also do on occasion what they call a woot-off which is where instead of selling an item (10pm-10pm PST) or until it sells out, they will move on to another item as soon as they sell out....they only do this on occasion and with no schedule to when they will do it....some times they will do the $1 bag of crap or "BOC" sometimes called "blushing over compliments" or "blinged out cabbage" due to the language filters on their forums....these are AWESOME buys most of the time if you can get in on time, they usually sell out within a minute of being posted and you MUST buy 3 of them at a time, so for $8(shipped) you get 3 bags of random stuff....some times its useless other times its good, someone won a HDTV in a "BOC" once....i managed to get a BOC order a while back, i got 4 sansa mp3 players, some phone jack through power things and some fake diamond bracelet's....well worth the $8.....also shipping is ALWAYS $5 doest matter if its an mp3 player or a 72" tv....i LOVE the site...my buddy actually buys stuff on there all the time then sells it for a bit more on craigslist
