"I see some orange flashing lights on the main page – what do they mean?
No, you aren't seeing a side effect from your allergy medication. You have found a Woot-Off, a short term frenzied mutation of our product posting procedure. In Woot-Off mode, a new product is launched immediately after the sellout of the previous deal. There is a half-Woot-life of 12 hours maximum on any product within a Woot-Off that does not sell out. The number of Woot-Off items, sequence, and quantity will not be announced. When Woot-Off mode is over, the orange lights will disappear and our normal schedule will resume. Depending on its success, this may be a mode we would go into once or twice a month for a relatively short duration of time (24-72 hours generally.)"

So grab your wallets and credit card and proceed to mash F5 while everyone buys awesome shit they don't really need!

First item was a Logitech Bluetooth headset for a cell phone, now it's a security camera.

Damn things seem to be happening every other week these days.

Yeah, the next item only goes up once this one is sold out...

So take one for the team.

(Shit, we might be stuck on this one for a while.)

lordswing

fuck, oh well, i can drop the lowest test

BUY THREE!

ArcticXC

The woot forums are possibly the funniest place on the internet during a woot off. The first time I checked them out half the people were like "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS IS OR WHAT IT DOES BUT I JUST BOUGHT THREE!!!!" Then of course the massive disappointment when the next item isn't a bag of crap.

scrivenerjones

ha, ha, I have $75 in my checking account

so really the timing could not be better

HP Pavilion dv9010us Entertainment Notebook PC

If a wireless router or a cheap headset goes by, somebody on IRC yell at me, please.

StormyWaters

I bought a projector during the last woot off, everyone said is was a piece of junk and I wasted my money, but this thing as actually really nice. So, uh, go woot I guess.

Great, JUST as I'm going to bed. Thanks Woot, you jerk.

iRobot nooooooo.

Ah well, I can't stay up anymore. Goodnight, and happy wooting!

rts

I don't want the poker game, but at $3, it should move fast.

wombat

is it just me or is like EVERYTHING like main site and mirror sites getting hammered?


and sorry, but I think one of the auto-refresh mirrors is broken let me figure out which one it was

TehSpectre

Back in my day, a handheld such as this was $20.

Man....I hate poker, but for $3 even I want one.

this one says that everything is sold out (even when the others say the item is at 90+%)

There's apparently way too many, given how slowly they're going.

Well, my question is can you add multiple woots to your cart and still only pay the $5 shipping? If so, I could buy like 5 and give em off as presents for only $20. Old folks like these kinda things.

-Edit-

I'm more interested in the Bonzai Sandles Ad. Sounds like a good Val's Day gift. Hrmm...

Zephos

Fuck, and i thought i was gonna go to sleep tonight.

There was a Timex CD alarm clock "with nature sounds" on sale, but then it disappeared and turned into Wireless range extender?

I want to buy these two-way wristwatch radios, just to talk to my friend on the other end, but refer to him as "Zordon"

wombat

damnit I really wish I had an excuse to buy these watches



someone think of an excuse for me

Not a bad digital camera, but man, they must have a metric fuckton of the things.
