About Kids.Woot.com
You guys are selling kids now? Is that legal?
Only if you’re a famous pop singer or movie star, and even then you have to go to Africa and pick them up in person. Kids.Woot sells stuff for kids. By “stuff” we mean everything from carseats to apparel to educational toys & games to non-educational toys & games – all the accoutrements that make your little bundle of joy so damn expensive. By “kids” we mean anybody from 0 to 99, obviously skewed toward the lower end. If you’re 100 or older, beat it. We don’t want your business.
Why a kids site?
To give you an excuse to keep wooting after the baby comes along. To provide useful, high-quality kid accessories and still leave you money for the occasional Happy Meal. And most of all, to give us parental wooters a place to chill without the petty, self-centered drama that non-parents are so caught up in. Oh, you don’t know which iPod case will impress that girl at the vegan bakery? Yeah, get back to us when you’ve had to deal with a diaper full of diarrhea at three in the morning, or when you’ve had a colicky baby howling at you for six straight hours.
Ah, so a dot-woot store where my kids can shop and play, a bright orange creamsicle Woot wonderland? Where do I drop them off?
No, no. Exploiting underage shoppers is one innovation we’d rather not claim. Kids.Woot is an 18-and-up joint, intended for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, coaches, friends, and other grownups who have reason to buy stuff for children. (Or for inner children.) While we may look all bright orange and cheerful, we’re still part of the scary, scary Internet. Especially that button up there that says “Community”. That’s like the Wild West of every dot-woot site – your kids shouldn’t go there, or even know it exists. There are many other corporate entities standing by to help train your toddlers to tweeners to be good little consumers. We’re grateful to just have you in our clutches.
How does this store work?
Like the other Woot sites: we offer a new deal every night at midnight Central time, in limited quantities at a discounted price. Only one product is available at any given time. If you want one, you click that big orange button that says I WANT ONE. When it sells out, or the next midnight rolls around, that deal is gone. No backorders, no rainchecks, no do-overs. And no, we don’t tell you what the next product is. What fun would that be?
