It's that time once again.
Woot : One Day, One Deal (SM)
If you don't know the drill, here's how it goes:
Normally Woot! has one item per day. When a Wootoff is happening, they keep throwing up new items every time an item sells out.
For certain reasons, Woot's main page tends to be a bit unreliable when these are going on. Because of this, people have made woot trackers, which automatically keep up to date and serve as mirrors. Normally I would recommend Wootalyzer, but it seems to be broken right now. I don't really know of any others, so feel free to suggest, and I'll link them here.

Whenever the Oreck air filter comes up, I'm always tempted to buy one. Then I read the reviews all over the internet and quickly change my mind.

Self control man. Just think about how you need that money and why you need to go to sleep and/or do something else.
Which one?
Dang that sucks. I was tempted at that surround sound speakers for 60$ and that 0.99$ keyboard but it wasn't in the cards for me.
And then there’s “Pimp Modeâ€. In “Pimp Modeâ€, the whole thing goes crazy like ELO crashed into P-Funk. Every light flashes and blinks, and it automatically turns on at 7:00pm and goes until 1:00am. IT CANNOT BE TURNED OFF UNTIL ONE IN THE MORNING. Even after that, if you press the time display button between 1:00am and 7:00pm, it will light up, once a minute, for twelve minutes. That’s “Pimp Modeâ€. It’s brilliant.
^A watch function. Completely serious.
I purchased that watch.
I was going to name it Chibi Roomba, butthen I found out that E, from XBox Live/the Major Nelson Podcast, already named HIS roomba that, so now I feel unoriginal.
It's flippin sweet.
Buying your SO a vacuum cleaner for Christmas, even a vacuum cleaner that operates itself, is not advisable. Unless you hate sex and never want to have it again.
It's the scheduler which is worth the dough.
These are very wise words. You're right. Hell, when we got married I registered for a $500 dyson vacuum cleaner. She asked me why, saying I'd never use it. She'd always be the one using it. I got mad and assured her that wasn't true. One year later, we have the $500 dyson vacuum and I've used it once. She ended up really liking it though.
Edit: Yeah, I just remembered what our two year old Husky did to Robosapien. No way in hell am I leaving him alone in the house with a Roomba that could wake up at any minute and start cleaning.
Siberian Huskies hate robots.
Yeah. If it went up stairs.. I would love mine even more than I already do.
I bit the bullet and ordered one... I live in a 1 bedroom apartment with 2 cats. at the very least it will clean up their litter kickings which I'm often too lazy to do on a regular basis.
A Roomba I can't really use - but a Scooba I would be all over.
Are you allowed to buy Christmas presents for "the house"?
I don't know the rules of these things, but I imagine thatmaybe you could get something else for your wife, and then claim that the roomba is a gift to the house itself, because it will keep it clean.
It is a robot that does your housework for you.
It is not about it being some super functional thing, it is about it being a robot.
TOTALLY ought to be their ad campaign.
You're not kidding. That Dyson does a hell of a job. Especially in the summer when Husky hair is all over the place.
As for the Roomba being a gift for the house, that might fly if we actually end up buying the house we're in, but for now we're renting so the house isn't getting shit. I bought my wife a Canon Digital Rebel (Not the XT because I'm an idiot and don't know how to use Ebay) so that's the wife's Christmas gift.
I'm hoping my roomba will help me keep the floor a little more clear than I have been lately.
Maybe I'll name it. Captain Suckington sounds like a good name.
Sir Sucksalot.
