Woot Anyone?

Maybe you’ve heard of this. The web site is http://www.woot.com/. It is a neat concept. At midnight, Monday through Friday, they post an item for sale. It can be anything from a blender to a High Definition television. There price is usually quite competitive. Shipping is ALWAYS $5. The sale goes on until their supply is depleted. Once depleted, you have to wait until midnight again.

There is a special event now and then called a "Woot Off". It lasts for 24 hours. Once one item is sold out they place a new one on sale.

Be sure to run whatever item they are selling through Froogle to be sure you can't get a better price elsewhere. I used them to get a 20 GB MP3 player for my car. It was a pleasant experience. Also check the 'condition' field, they do sell some items as reconditioned.

Beware: The people that run the site can get racy in their language at times.
