Seems to be following the EXACT same order as last time.

My DVD recorder (for $29.99) is up now.

I *just* got it in the mail. Works wonderfully.

[Pinky]

Still pimping the Roomba. I think that was their first deal ever, and has become a staple in the woot lineup. Seen them in action - not impressed :p.

My grandfather has one. It commited suicide and flew past the invisible wall thing and flung itself down a flight of stairs :(

If I were a Roomba I would commit the same act rather than be a mediocre cleaning machine. The Roomba reached enlightenment and immediately did the right thing. :beer:

My thinking is - get a regular vacuum and view the opportunity to clean as a chance to get some exercise.

I've never seen the "Woot Off!" lights before. They look like fun, but I'm not buying them.

Good thing. I don't think they'll sell you the lights :-/


You can probably get good deals on some other cool stuff though :)

[Shelnutt2]

Got an email about this:



From: noreply@news.woot.com
To: Shelnutt2
Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 17:48:10 -0600
Subject: BREAKING: Economists declare water at least 50 percent wet!


Attention, Shelnutt2:

Welcome to Woot's first official recession-era newsletter! For the next 12 to 24 months, all citizens are expected to fret over, worry about, or even directly experience the nadir of a consumerist society - OMG! What will we do when we stop buying stuff? Economists now agree that we're headed through a prolonged period of decreased consumer spending (you really need an advanced degree to come up with insights like that). Beyond that, it's anybody guess. Will the only growth sectors in the economy be shoe repair, pipe salvage, and roadside apple sales? Or will we bring on a quick recovery by doing patriotic things like buying stuff we can't afford and spending more money than we make?

As a retailer, it'd make sense for us to fall in with the BUY STUFF, AMERICA conga line. But by now, you know that we at Woot never do things the "normal", "sensible", "rational", "intelligent" way. We're not about to follow the herd over a cliff. When we go over a cliff, it's because of our own poor judgment, not someone else's. That's been our credo since about five minutes ago, when we first thought of it. And we've stayed true to it ever since.

That's why we're encouraging you and your fellow wooters to save this holiday season. Save your money! Save until you pull a saving muscle. Horde your money until you are literally choking on it. Save until maybe, like, mid-February or so, when the market will be a-glut with great deals for the taking every day. You'll avoid the crowds, take advantage of desperate retailers, and not have to hear "Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time" even once.

Sure, maybe you'll disappoint some of your loved ones. But if they really love you, they can wait a couple of months, especially if your finances are at stake. Besides, if your so-called loved ones wanted you to set yourself on fire, would you? Of course you wouldn't. And that's the kind of independent thinking that will one day break the mindless conformity of our consumerist holiday ways.

But be warned: you'll want to stay far away from Woot.com this week. The breadth and scope of bargains we'll be offering - especially starting Tuesday morning at midnight - will be powerfully tempting. They could even lead you back down the spend-spend-spend path with the rest of the sheep. And that would make us sad enough to cry while we're taking your money.

See you in February!

Now a blender. w00t!

[freakdiablo]

random crap is up, server down.

[mbigna]

I'm not sure if my went through or not. Got to the order page and sent it, but got no confirmation before the server went busy. I guess I'll see if I get a confirmation email later.

I've been wanting to get a bag of crap for years--this is as close as I've gotten.

[mattgmann]

horse crap. what do you have to do to get through? I couldn't have possibly clicked any faster. Got to the order page twice, but never got to a confirmation page. I've got a freakin 20mbit connection here! Hrmmm.....T1? Well, at least I got nothing done today waiting for that stupid bag o carp

[Niku-Sama]

damnit, my internet connection wenty to crap for a while and i missed the bag of crap by one item.

****, its a computer thingy with a cat with incredibly huge ears now

[freakdiablo]

It's not yours it's theirs, as soon as the BoC pops up there are 20 bajillion other people trying to get it.

As for me, I didn't even get to the order page. As soon as I clicked it I got the server is busy page.

[Niku-Sama]

[freakdiablo]

Woot lights back up, ordered a set. Figured they would be a good annoy-everyone-else tool for the next lan.

[Niku-Sama]

woot off done, lame woot off lights are still up.
i've only seen a few woot offs but i am sure that was the worst ever

[jamesman32]

It was a 70inch plasma....I won.

[Niku-Sama]

huh?

[jamesman32]

The woot off. I won the bag of crap. Well...bought it for a buck. But yeah, it was a 70inch plasma

[freakdiablo]

The woot off. I won the bag of crap. Well...bought it for a buck. But yeah, it was a 70inch plasma

you lucky farker. Now you scared me away from getting one in the future. I live in a dorm room that barely holds a 32" lcd.

[jamesman32]

I'm having the same problem. I already have a 52 inch plasma thats wall mounted, and a 42 inch in the bedroom. I have nowhere to put this monster, unless maybe I hang it from the ceiling.... Maybe I could just sell it and build some sort of amazing computer......

No...that's to self centered. Maybe I'll donate the proceeds to charity for the holidays to buy things for needy families.
