Woot!

While I was meticulously hand crafting the last post, I was also listening to a podcast which mentioned the website Woot!. And I thought to myself: I forgot about that site! And then I thought to myself: damn Negrito post it before you forget again.

What is Woot!?
Its a site that sells one item a day. Every day they put up a product that is supposed to be at an unbelievable price but is only for sale until midnight. After that a new product goes up and the old one is gone forever at that price. I hear good things about the customer service and although I would froogle the item (or whatever sites you use to price something) before I bought it, you will probably come across some good deals.

With that in mind, lets do a little test. Its Friday October 27, 2006 and they have a “Vector Smart 12-Volt Battery Charger” for $12.99+ $5 shipping.

How does that match up against other sellers on the web?
JC Whitney is selling it for $39.99 + $8.99 shipping
Amazon is selling it for $36.95 + $8.95 shipping

Is it a good deal? Yep.

Check out the site every once in a while you may get lucky and find something you need. But remember to whip out the plastic before midnight or forever hold your piece.
