Woot, Amazon's sister site, is known for its online 1-day discounts and unique promos, including mystery deals.
Woot is Amazon's sister site, but it tends to add a little more pizzaz to its online-only discounts and sales. Keep an eye out for the following:
"Crap" Bags: These mystery bags cost $9.99 and contains whatever Woot has lying around and couldn't sell, as well as returns. They drop on Woot's site randomly and sell out quickly. According to Woot's forums, past bags have contained everything from screaming monkey toys to Ray-Bans.
Scavenger Hunts: Woot sometimes throws coupon scavenger hunts on its site. When you find a coupon, you can click on it for savings.
Woot Garage Sales: They usually feature big discounts of 50% off or more on a random selection of items (just like you'd find at a garage sale). Think clothing, toys, outdoor furniture, security cameras, and more, plus sometimes popular brands. For example, this spring we spotted Squishmallows for up to 60% off.
WTF Pricing: For these sales, Woot announces a drop time, and at that time, you'll find prices as low as $1.
Wootbusters: Think of these as online doorbusters. Deals drop in limited quantity and are priced to sell fast.
Deal-O-Meter: When the Deal-O-Meter appears on Woot's site, you get to vote for which item you want to be discounted the next day.
Keep in mind that only Prime members get access to certain Woot deals and perks like free shipping.
Woot is an Amazon site, so Prime members get certain benefits. While anyone can shop Woot, they offer free standard shipping to Amazon Prime members. All you need to do is log in using your Prime info, and you're eligible for free shipping. Plus, certain deals are available exclusively to Prime members.
Don't have Amazon Prime? You can sign up for a free trial of Prime to check out the Woot deals.
If you see something you like, don’t wait. Woot deals disappear as quickly as they come.
Because of the nature of how Woot operates, you should expect a Woot deal to last for just 24 hours. And some deals are only available to shop for as long as Woot has inventory (and inventory is limited to begin with), so they could be gone even faster.
If you're interested in something, don’t wait to take advantage of a Woot deal, because it’s likely to go away by the time you go back looking for it.
Woot's major annual sales include Prime Appreciation Days and Wootoberfest.
While Woot drops deals and promos daily, there are three sales to watch for every year:
Prime Appreciation Days: Twice a year (usually in the spring and summer), Woot drops exclusive deals for Prime members. You have to sign in to your Prime account on Woot's site to access some of the deals. Plus, Woot has WTF Pricing events, $1 T-shirt events, and more throughout the sale, which usually lasts two weeks.
Wootoberfest: Every fall, Woot runs a 5-day sale that offers up to 80% off. The sale is focused on early holiday gifting. Last year we saw deals on earbuds, beauty products, and the Stanley Quencher.
Woot's Birthday Sale: This weeklong sale in June features daily deals as well as promos like the Deal-O-Meter and a Garage Sale.
