In Praise of Woot
Have I mentioned lately how much I love Woot? Here’s what it’s all about: every day, Woot sells one product at a ridiculously low price. Their products tend to be tech-oriented, like mp3 players and hard drives. I’ve gotten to the point that, if I need a tech product, I will wait for months until Woot has it, because their prices are so damn good. Just tonight, I picked up a set of iPod speakers for $19.99, which, for anyone who’s priced iPod speakers, is a damn good price. I’ve been 100% satisfied with everything I’ve bought, and I highly recommend it for everyone who has obsessive tendencies like me. Every night at 10 PM (1 PM EST … hahaha to all you bastards who are still living in NY), Woot posts their product of the day, and I am there with my credit card at the ready. So far, I’ve picked up a paper shredder, a cordless vacuum, a pair of wireless headphones, a cordless phone, a USB hub, and the aforementioned iPod speakers. A word of advice for anyone who gets hooked : make sure to check it out right when the products go on sale, or else you’ll miss out on the best deals.

I guess the kids aren’t going wild for the Roomba?

I’ve been Wooting for about a year or so. I’ve gotten some pretty cool stuff, and maybe a thing or two that I never actually used, but thought it seemed like a good deal at the time. Yeah, the Roombas don’t really do it for me like they once did.
Btw, I’d better get going, Mandy’s water just broke and I think we might be in for a trip to the h-pital today.

Whaaa? This is how I find out that my sister’s having a baby? On my blog? We are truly in a new age.

Is that true about Mandy? This is a pretty relaxing thing to do.
