dmmiller Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Just like Woot... Sounds interesting, but if its a good item, gotta be really quick!
bugsette Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 thanks... don't think I can stay up that late... but you never know
misshayley Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Thanks, I'd never heard of this site and it looks pretty interesting
dilligaf Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Anyone heard of them before?Yeppers. Have made a couple purchases from them. Everything has been as described and showed up in a timely manner.
dragonballnutts Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Another Woot-like site!?! I AM SO THERE!!!
dilligaf Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Another Woot-like site!?! I AM SO THERE!!!Oh, there are over 30 of them that I know of. Them being deal a day sites. Not all of them have a Woot-Off type of setup though. And, this one doesn't need a Woot-Off Tracker because it's site auto updates already.
musiang Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 I like that it shows you what is coming up as well......no guessing
dilligaf Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Yeah, their site is always like that. It is pretty cool.
ArmyWife4Life Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 www.zerodaydeals.com is a site that list many "woot" like sites all in one place. :)
jmyersfl Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 www.dealsucker.com is another good site for woot type sites as well as deal of the day on other sites.
dilligaf Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 There is also http://dodtracker.com I didn't really like the way any of them did it. So, I built http://DealADayTracker.com currently showing 36 different deal sites. You can use the settings page to pick which sites you see, what order they show in, and hide the rest of them. As with anything, find what works best for you and use it.
jerseygurl Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 OK am I missing something here, the item up now....Sponge BOB PS2 Control pad...is $15.00. I thought EVERYTHING would be under $10.00. QUOTE OFF THEIR SITE..."Thingfling presents Wacky Wednesday II.

Makes me go hmmmmmmmmmm
dilligaf Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 $6.99 now. Hey jerseygurl, I didn't forget you. I really am still looking :)
jerseygurl Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 OH they must have heard me...they have dropped the price to $6.99 now.....lol
Cherrymm Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 I haven't seen anything that exciting. I'll just wait patiently for the next woot off.
dilligaf Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 I haven't seen anything that exciting. I'll just wait patiently for the next woot off.Not only have they not put up anything exciting, but they are repeating their boring items.
davephillyj Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Speaking of.........How often do they WOOT OFF?
lynette_tang Posted February 22, 2007 Author Posted February 22, 2007 Hey Dilligaf ... love the website you created showing 36 different deal sites!
dilligaf Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Speaking of.........How often do they WOOT OFF? Don't think they have a set schedule. I believe that it is 4ish times per year. Hey Dilligaf ... love the website you created showing 36 different deal sites!Thank you. I hope it is useful. Built it just because I was tired of opening every site every day. Showed it to a couple friends and they said I should make it avail. I added the rating system so that we can let others know how we feel about the sites. I am staying away from comments because I don't want to have to go through and edit for language and such. So, it is just a 1-5 rating. It does take some time to load, but is really designed to be used once or twice a day. Not a big site to be refreshing. I get up in the morning and open it then go read emails. When I am done, I buzz through the page and see if there is something I need/want. Later in the day, I open it to and fix any of them that have made a change. I also add new sites as I become aware of them. I'll have another one or two up there sometime tonight.
Cherrymm Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Speaking of.........How often do they WOOT OFF? I think the woot offs usually come once every two-three months. There have been more lately I think because they are moving to a new, bigger facility and they probably want to drop their inventory. I used to stay up for days during the woot off. It's addicting and none of the other "copycat" sites have been able to draw me in like that.

Cherrymm Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Agreed. None of them keep my butt in my seat like Woot! does.The forums are very entertaining during a woot off too. And of course the BOC forums are hilarious.
