its in the "about me" thing on the side nav... long story short... i can't impulse buy... tried a million times... just can't do it... that doesn't lessen my love for woot and what it does though... not in the slightest.

I'm the same way. Been on woot for months. Never bought a thing. Its just fun to shop. Buying is less exciting to me. It's all about the "thrill of the hunt", as they say.

You BLEW it! I wanted an update for the First Alert woot! I'll never come back here. I'm going to spread the word on the woot! forums too.

The comment above this one is lame. We all know its the same ONE guy posting these anonymous comments, trying to hate. If you don't like it, don't view the blog. Quit being a hater. I can assure you that hating on something never does anything to deter others from doing that which you hate. NO ONE listens to haters. Everyone knows that haters are just bitter losers. So help yourself and knock it off. P.S. i know i'm being a "hater" right now, but hating on haters. But that's different, obviously.
