Woot is a website that sells one thing each day, until it sells out, or until it expires after a 24 hour period. Typically, they sell electronics, computery parts, or gadget-type stuff. They’re super awesome people. They also have a site called Wine Woot, where, predictably, one can buy quartets of old liquid grapes for substantial savings. (My girlfriend is the wine drinker, and she spends 35% of her annual income at Wine Woot. She’s like a choca-holic, but for booze. ) So…
If you’re one of the 4 people on this planet that doesn’t own an iPod, today is your lucky day. Today’s Woot is a 20 Gigabyte Apple iPod. You know, the 3rd generation White one that doesn’t do anything more than play music, and the occasional game of Parachute. (Lame)
It’s $99.00. It’s refurbished. Shipping is $5.00. Get ‘em quick. Good stuff on Woot doesn’t last long!
PS - if you become horribly addicted to Woot, please don’t blame me. PPS - the site refreshes with a new product at 10PM Pacific Time, every day.

Nice throwback reference! One of the all-time greats. That was back when The Onion was still funny.
Don’t forget shirt.woot.com and their random Woot-Off every couple months were they sell a different product every time something sells out.
It’s a great idea really and I waste too much time there too.
No shit. The Onion has lost some serious ground over the past 2 years.

Natalie is right. The Woot-Off is a blast. I’ll keep refreshing my browser all damn day for a shot a good deal during a Woot-Off. And Shirt.Woot.com is rad, but get there early - the t-shirts sell out in a matter of minutes on some days.
I still have the original 4gig iPod nano in the metal casing - I think it was the best model they ever built. You kids can keep your fancy video and photos. My ipod can survive a 4 story drop.

Prove it. I wanna watch!
Last week wine woot featured four bottles of sake. Mmmmmmmmm…
Unfortunately, this delicious offering did not coincide with payday for me.
Be careful, these sites are phenomenally addicting!
I saw that, it looked interesting. Wonder what’s brewing now …. (off to check)
