How long have you been a Woot customer?

Since September 9, 2005. I wonder where those things I bought are.

Interested. Did it work? Do you still have it? And does it still work?

I always wanted one of those, but they seemed too expensive. Have had several gas mowers over the years & now have a corded electric one since we don’t have a front lawn & the backyard is so small. Also have a battery operated Worx trimmer/edger that I made it into a small mower by attaching wheels to it. You can use it like a vacuum cleaner.

Hello,
Yes, it worked great! It was a little work setting it up with wire, then buried underground. To set the boundaries. But then it smooth sailing for years! I do not have it anymore, because it eventually stopped working. Dead battery. I was renting then, and decided to throw it away instead of replacing the battery.
I’d suggest only buying one if you own a home.

In 2013 I replaced a tee shirt that I had bought that I loved. I don’t know how long before that I shopped, because I don’t know my pre 2010 email address, but it was definitely before that. My average tee shirt lifespan is 4-7 years.

July 7th, 2006. In for 2 overpriced Magellan GPS’s. 2nd purchase was on the 17th, A ROOMBA! All hail the robot overlords. Only 1 BOC in all that time.

I prefer to think in quantity vs time - enough to deck out two houses in two years

Those were the good old days.

At that rate I bought enough to fill a room in just a few months

overpriced Magellan GPS’s.

I purchased a tomtom gps years ago (not from woot) with supposedly lifetime updates $100+ probably closer to $200. After several years of updates the unit is so old & doesn’t have enough memory for the newest maps. They kept sending me emails to upgrade the gps. Not! I will never buy another stand alone gps unit.

I use my cell phone now with Google maps (don’t like waze). If anyone is considering buying a gps unit do yourself a favor & buy a cheap $20 TracFone (smartphone) from Wally world, target or hsn & use that. Google maps gets updated often & you no longer need a live phone plan with data to use it. It works offline with the maps stored on your phone or memory card. Just bring it in the house & update via WiFi then throw it in your glovebox.

I’ve said it before, technology advancements are amazing.

A ROOMBA

I miss my Roomba.

Our profiles used to indicate our join date. I know I lurked off and on before becoming the greatest dad ever by upgrading the kids’ MP3 players to an entire GB in 2007 with my first Woot.

About 14ish years…for better or for worse. And it’s really only gotten worse.

[Wooter900042612]

Believe the cheap TracFones are $60 now with 1 yr basic service.

[cwfenn]

Since 2012. My first order was for a first aid kit.

[NoelandAli]

are you saying woot is a gold digger?

[NoelandAli]

[styflan]

Yeah, I just browsed a bit. They are usually around $60, but go on sale. Target has 1 for 30 right now & black Friday had some for $20.

Plus if you follow sites like Slickdeals you can find bargains, the people there are real misers & they love to share bargains. You just have to look.
