What is Woot?

This week I will be detailing some of my favorite deal websites that I visit everyday.

Today, it is the grand-daddy of one day deal websites WOOT!.

What? You haven't heard of Woot? Where have you been? Not real sure what a one day deal sites are?

Let me explain.

One day deal sites are just that. They sell one item only for one day only. If they sell out within the first hour of the sale...tough, you have to wait 23 hours to see a new deal.

There are a million of these sites out there, I will be detailing some of the other ones in the coming days but nobody, and I mean nobody does it better than Woot.

Even when I don't like their offering, or the deal has already sold out, I go to the site to be entertained. I read the product description. They are great. The writers are very funny. It is a serious site that has a serious sense of humor. Don't believe me. Go buy a leak frog. Watch Woot long enough you will see them. And then you will understand.

And once Woot has had enough of their daily deals, they do the Woot-Off. This is where it gets fun! They put a product up until it sells out and then the move onto the next deal. Products can sell out in minutes or if a Woot-Killer can take hours. But the crown jewel of the woot-off is the Bag of Crap. Normally you wouldn't clamor for a Bag of Crap but here you do. The people at Woot sell a mystery bag that is filled with pens, rubberbands, and possibly high end electronics. You don't know but it could be something really good.

So check it out. You can find great deals and wonderful entertainment.
