Woot-off! 2/19/13

Obligatory bunny butt woot post

whats the difference between daily woot deal and woot-off?

Quote from PensoTroppo : Anyone tried those Forever Lazies on home.woot.com?

I got them for the whole family for Christmas Eve. Just hold an iPad to your stomach and you can pass for a teletubby. They are warm as hell, comfortable, has pockets, and yes folks... A butt flap. Not just a useless little butt flap, no sir. They have the mother of all butt flaps, when you pull that two way zipper it's like opening a suitcase!

Honestly though, the wife and kids love them and even I've thrown it on from time to time.

More like a poop off, amiright?

Daily woot is just one product that is barely at a discount, but probably refurbished, takes for ever to ship, etc... And woot off is all of their left over garbage at basically the same, barely discounted prices, but as soon as the item "sells out" another item is put up.

Woot sucks. The "savings" of 1% is not worth the hassle of the delayed awful shipping speeds.

Don't forget the $5 flat rate shipping...

It's been too long!

I just like to listen to their catchy wootoff theme song <_<

If woot had free shipping I might pay half of my attention

If you're waiting for a bag of crap, please consider that time is money.

You're better off buying a state lottery scratch it for $3, where the odds are better and the revenue is used for good causes. My state offers ods of 1:2.3, much better than chances of getting a GOOD bag of crap.

Woot is like the worst site ever. I used to check it daily for ~2 years and i literally never bought anything because all they sell is overpriced junk. And the $5 flat rate shipping is just the icing. Why this site has such a huge following is beyond me. I'm guessing its people who like the word woot and dont understand product value. If anyone thinks they bought anything good there, can u post it? Im genuinely so confused about this site.

I'm curious about the wine.

I agree that NOW Woot is the worst site ever. But 2007 - 2010 (when I purchased stuff from woot), the site was awesome and had great deals.

The Bag of Craps, which are just fun to get no matter what's inside of them, used to have some good items. I got a 30gb classic iPod Video that worked perfectly, and in a different boc a 10" Wireless digital picture frame that after replacing the battery, worked and is actually still working 4 years later.

Other than boc's, they also had pretty good deals as well. A few of my purchases;

Razer Copperhead Tempest Blue Gaming Mouse for $34.99
Philips amBX Premium Complete Gaming Kit for $74.99
Razer Mamba Wired / Wireless Laser Gaming Mouse for $74.99
Razer m100 Pro/Solutions Protone In-Ear Earphone for $19.99
Icemat Siberia In Ear Headset for $14.99

Again, these are from 2007 - 2009.

I didn't buy a lot, besides boc's, but again, they used to have great deals every once in a while. Now, you'll be lucky to find a deal on woot even close to as good as you'll find on here. And as a wooter since 2007, it makes me sad .

Exactly, Amazon bought them and destroyed them. They used to have good deals pretty often. Anything that seems interesting nowadays is ruined by $5 shipping. I used to stay up late (EST) to check the new deal each night. Now that I'm PST, it's not that late and I don't even bother.
