I see some orange flashing lights on the main page – what do they mean?
No, you aren't seeing a side effect from your allergy medication. You have found a Woot-Off, a short term frenzied mutation of our product posting procedure. In Woot-Off mode, a new product is launched immediately after the sellout of the previous deal. There is a half-Woot-life of 12 hours maximum on any product within a Woot-Off that does not sell out. The number of Woot-Off items, sequence, and quantity will not be announced. When Woot-Off mode is over, the orange lights will disappear and our normal schedule will resume. Depending on its success, this may be a mode we would go into once or twice a month for a relatively short duration of time (24-72 hours generally.)

They usually only have 1 deal per 24 hours. A woot-off has tons of great deals for 24-72 hours, deals switching as they sell-out. There is a mythical wondrous item called the Bag of Crap, also known as the Bandolier of Carrots. This item is able to be bought 3 wide, and can contain anything from something actually worth the $5.01 total you'd pay for one (or $5.03 total for 3)... or you in some rare cases could be shipped something obscenely expensive like a 42" widescreen hdtv. Not bad for a couple of bucks and it usually has a cult following.
