I'm sorry but woot is nothing but garbage. The woot concept is interesting, but I'm finished even wasting my time with that website.

Hey kudos on the Orvis deal! I looked at your company web page last night when you posted the links....looks like a pretty cool gig
ty, it will be real when I have a check... but until then, i have a bunch of socks Wink

They will actually just buy the yarn, and have their own made, its actually the sock company who put them on to us. We had some demo's made, and they make the "indestructible" sock for Orvis, so they showed em our stuff, and I got a phone call..
I am holding my breath for the next two months... and broke after buying 500 lbs of cashmere...

ohhh, huge hispanic tradition! not that i am, or my family, but we liked it so have done it the last 5-6 years.. The mexicans around here sell dozens of empty eggs filled with confetti. its like $3-4.00 per dozen.. and we buy 20-30 doz. then run around the back yard hitting each other with confetti eggs. Someone always slips in a couple filled with flour.. .those are fun. Then whoever hosted the party has a bright colorful back yard for the next two months until it rains enough to melt all the crap..

I'm sure it has nothing to do with what they purchase them for and profit margin or anything like that. They must just pull a number out of their butts. Stupid woot.

Never heard of it, but sounds fun and MUCH better than what I had imagined (throwing bits of hard boiled egg at each other EW-W)
