WHOA... ALERT! ALERT! SOMEONE HELP THIS GUY, QUICK!

OK, taking a deep breather. http://www.woot.com is a website that has 1 tech deal every day. They release a new product a 1 AM EST. Once every, idk, 2-4 months or so, they have a woot-off. This is where as soon as one item sells out, another one starts. They don't say how MANY are left, rather what percentage are left. This continues from anywhere from 24-72 hours.

What makes this such a big deal is the BOC, the Bandolier of Carrots, the Bank of Canada, whatever you want to call it. Formally known as the Bag of Crap. This costs one (count 1) US dollar. Anything can come inside of this bag, usually worth more than a dollar. Last time I got it, the contents were worth about $120. There are only a limited number available, usually 1000 or 3000. They are gone in well under a minute (usually in about 17 seconds.) The trick is to keep refreshing the woot.com home page waiting for the BOC. I do this every time, for up to 72 hours. I have gotten 2 bags of crap before.

There is a lot more to know about woot, but this is a starters guide. Woot isn't just a website. It's a way of life.

Or those stupid round wireless speakers I hate those things.

I predict a Bucket of Cookies next, only 4% of headsets left

[Vashts6583]

forget speakers. $10.00 portable ones from Radio Shack that I plug into my iPwn. they work just fine for me.





\//007!! (whoa, get it?)
WOOT!!

Mhmmm.... NEXT!

This is whats called a woot-off-killer. Just like that stupid headset. Or the projector. Or the Sphere speaker (The only thing to Sphere is Sphere itself!)

I put on my audible woot tracker (with Alarm!). My computer is hooked up to my 7.2 in my bed (yes, in my bed.) Should this item go down to <5%, it WILL wake me up. Then I can get my hands on my Blinged out Cabbage.

Only 79% left.... *sigh*

Mhmmm... I must admit that I did *drift off* a few times, granted I was in my bed... But my Tracker wakes me at %5, 1%, sold-out, and 100%.

That wine looks tempting... If only I were old enough to buy it
