    Car wax? What did they do, buy out a Home Depot/Value store or somethin'?

    EDIT: Ugh, that's it, I'm going to bed.

    So, uh, it appears that we went from a golf bag to a kitchen slicer. A slicer that apparently popped up since I left and which has been sitting there for the last ten hours or so. And that for whatever reason has only started to move at all in the last hour. And is probably gonna' sell out in the next few minutes.

    EDIT: More athletic crap. Today is gonna' be a slooooow day.

    There's been multi-day Woot-offs before, so this isn't really anything new. The last few have been short in comparison, though. Maybe they had a lot of stuff build up since they didn't have one last month?

    So, I don't know if this needs it's own thread but Amazon Gold Box is selling Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia for 20$, and they just got done selling out of the special edition Ghostbusters game for 40$. Resident Evil, some zombie game, and another round of Ghostbusters is going to go up for sale later today.

    So the main site seems to be getting hammered, but according to my tracker it's everybody's favorite product again!

    To be honest I actually want to get one since I plan on moving soon and the place would be small enough for one or a few of these guys to manage, that and to drive the dog nuts whenever it goes about its business. :D

    So based on the server crashing, I am guessing we hit the BoC.

    I don't know, maybe people just really really wanted some Roombas. Or they simply thought it was a BoC. My tracker's supposedly supposed to give me a warning when we get bags, but I got zip.

    How often does your tracker update? Best tracker I can find as a plugin is only every minute, and BoCs sell out in... 10-15 seconds from start to finish.

    3 seconds supposedly, but it's a Vista gadget instead of a individual page, look back to page 6 or whatever two pages back is.

    EDIT: Aw, nuts. I found a list of past items, and they were selling Bacon Salt a while ago. I love Bacon Salt. :(

    I bought a cheap Mr. Beer homebrew kit on Woot back in the spring. It may not be as good as a fancier homebrew setup, but my $30 ($20 + $5 shipping + $5 worth of extra ingredients from the local homebrew store to punch up the prepackaged mix) bought me two gallons of pretty awesome beer.

    D'oh, stupid picture-based knee-jerkery. Though I wonder why the hell they didn't bother showing the case.

    Still, all the same, refurb'd AND from HP, I'm bettin' it's either school suppliers or parts-scroungers buying this sucker.

    That's what the wine is for. It makes Woot seem much more normal.

    Haha.. A fish finder? Doesn't that take all the fun out of fishing? I almost sounds like cheating :P

    EDIT: A Refurbished harddrive? That is just stupid... Unless the former owner forgot to delete his data. :winky:
