WOOT!

Woot-Off
The site occasionally deviates from the one-product-per-day model for a "Woot-Off", where a succession of products are available for a period of unannounced length, usually 2472 hours. When one product sells out, it is replaced within a minute or two by a new product. A percentage bar shows how much stock of the current product remains. However, Woot never gives the exact quantity available until after the item has sold out. During April Fool's Day 2008, Woot staged a Woot-Off offering the same product repeatedly, except for a few brief periods when Woot sold Bags of Crap (see below) instead.

Happy Hour
On occasion, Woot has a limited one-hour version of the Woot-Off called Happy Hour. These events are promoted solely via Twitter, and do not appear on woot.com's front page.

Bag of Crap
In lieu of typical product sales, Woot occasionally offers a blind grab bag officially called "Random Crap." While today its accompanying picture of a paper lunch bag with a question mark has kept its unofficial name "Bag of Crap," (BOC) it was originally dubbed "Bag of Crap" during the early years of the site when a physical bag of some kind (notebook, iomega zipper bags, etc.) was sold with the 1-3 "craps" and was part of what you were buying.Today, the BOC contains at least three "crappy" items and one bag whose value and quality are not guaranteed, but sometimes expensive items are included. The BOC typically triggers millions of order requests and sells out within seconds, causing server lag and occasional crash. During the January 25, 2011 selling, the website received a record 3.1 million requests, and the product was sold out within eight seconds. During April Fools Day 2011, Woot staged a "Bag of Crap" flash game, which users were instructed to play in order to win the privilege of buying Bags of Crap. On April 1, 2011, eight thousand Bags of Crap were sold. Later in the day, once the Bag of Crap selling period was over, a Woot admin said that there were over seven million attempts to get the Bags of Crap.

Product launches
Beginning with the "gamma" launch of the Neuros MPEG 4 Recorder, Woot has occasionally partnered with another company to launch a new product with a one-day exclusive Woot sale.

2-for-Tuesday
Since January 10, 2006, Woot has two-packs of products every Tuesday. Woot has used this day to offer quantities greater than a 2-pack, such as 3-for-Tu3sday, 4-for-4uesday, 5-for-Tue5day, 6-for-Tue6day, 10X-Tuesday, 12-for-Tu12day, Two Dozen Tuesday (24-for-Tue2day), or Three Dozen Tuesday (36-forTu36day).

5 BUSINESS PROCESSES Wine Woot

Wine Woot was launched in the Summer of 2006 and offers wine and "wine-related" products. It initially offered one item per week (often a set of multiple bottles from the same winery) but has since expanded to offer five new items each week. Unlike the main Woot site Wine Woot will occasionally offer new deals outside of the regular schedule if an item sells out. Due to state legislation, Woot Wine items may only be delivered to a limited number of states. As the wineries are the seller of record (not Woot Wine), the list of states to which any given offer may be shipped is dependent on where the current winery can ship, and may change from offer-to-offer.

Shirt Woot
Woot Shirts sold their first shirt in July 2007 after a short beta test. The website began by offering one new T-shirt design every weekday. Since September 2007, shirts were offered on Saturday and Sunday. The designs are silk-screened on American Apparel shirts in Woot's Carrollton, Texas facility. Shirt design submissions are reviewed and selected by an editor in the Seattle, Washington offices of Woot. Most designs are from established artists, but Woot also conducts a weekly design competition where users submit their own design ideas to a public vote. The three most popular designs are produced and sold; winners get a cash prize and a portion of the proceeds from shirts sold after the first day. Shirts from previous days are available for a higher price; each week the shirts with the lowest sales are dropped from the production line through a process called "Reckoning" and discontinued. Unlike the main Woot site, Woot Shirts offers international shipping and free standard shipping in the US. Woot occasionally offers a Random Shirt day. Shoppers can purchase up to three randomly-selected usually discontinued shirts. Customers can only specify the size and quantity (up to three) desired, not the design. The site briefly experimented with selling "Classic" shirts, identical to or based on previously discontinued designs.

Sellout Woot
On September 12, 2007, Woot entered into a partnership with Yahoo! and created a new site, sellout.woot.com which has since become part of Yahoo! Shopping. The business model is the same as on the main Woot site, although with different products. While the site itself is part of Yahoo! Shopping, all product offers and fulfillment are managed by Woot.

Kids Woot
Woot launched Kids Woot on August 18, 2009. It sells one item geared towards kids per day. Its first kids Woot-off was on October 28, 2009.

Moofi Woot
Moofi (Woot! upside down) is a new Woot site launched during the week of June 13, 2010. It can have several deals running at the same time. The Moofi subdomain links directly to the Woot! main page, so a quick search on the Woot! Deals site will reveal the current Moofi items and their hidden URLs.
