Hooty-McDeal – It’s a Woot-Off!

Oct 12 2006

Greetings, Christian consumers….Today’s Hooty McDeal is nothing new, really. But if there’s anyone in the Western Hemisphere that isn’t already aware of Woot, consider this post more of a public service…

Woot is a very unique shopping site. Each day, a product is offered at a (usually) much lower price – sometimes the products are refurbished. The product is offered at some ridiculous price for 24 hours, or until it sells out – whichever comes first.

Sometimes, like today, you can find a “Woot-Off” – products are offered in rapid-fire succession – for an hour or two, or until they sell out. As of 10:55AM Pacific Time, the current item is a JBL On-Stage iPod dock for the socially and economically retarded price of ony $59.99. An hour ago, cordless Bluetooth headsets for the XBOX 360 were on-sale for $5.00 – yes, five bucks. But that was an hour ago – in Woot time, that’s like 1986.

The deals are humongous, the products are typically top-notch, and the writing and reviews are damn hilarious.

And for all you wine drinkers (see: alcoholics, Ally) check out Woot’s sister site: Woot Wine! For one week at a time, quartets of fine wines are offered at similarly ridiculous prices.

  1. The best part of that site (besides the subterranian prices) is the FAQ section. Read it and snickle.

  2. I don’t know what the hell a Rio Carbon Pearl 6GB MP3 player IS exactly, but I feel manically driven to plunk down $89.99 for one RIGHT NOW before the time is up. What to do? WHAT TO DO??????????
