Until they break down and give us discussion threads for the Woot!Plus items, I figured we will have an easier time with just a single Woot!Plus thread for each site. If you guys are down, let's just make this thread the place to discuss all Kids.Woot!Plus offerings, past or present.

My first Woot!Plus order was for two of the TrainerMats. I first ordered the "Extra Wide Core Exercise & Strech Mat," because I seriously need to focus on my core, and I'm tired of laying towels down on the floor as a mat for crunches, etc. Moments later I added the "Instructional Mat for Back Health" because I do have some lower-back tension or discomfort and because I wanted to take advantage of the $5 All-you-can-ship policy. I haven't received either mat yet, although I did see notification that they're in transit. Hopefully I will have more to offer once they arrive.

Actually, that's a really great idea.

Shirt.woot has the best "Woot!Plus" deal - it's a few previous woot pictures on tanks, tees, and bags with a beach theme. While the other Woot!Plus sites don't scream "Woot!" with their special items, the shirt.woot site does.

That being said, the hampers looked cute on the Kids.Woot "Woot!Plus" today... until I saw they were sold out of the monkey. My son does NOT need a flower hamper.

Ooooo, question for Mods, if/when they wander across this topic:

Do "Woot!Plus" items count into our Woot buyer score?

Here's how lazy I've been... I completely overlooked that Razer was being sold in the w00t!Plus Items.

So here's the deal. My hubby and I got an excellent CPU from CyberPowered and got the Keyboard to go with. The tron keyboard really does light up blue.

My major annoyance is that it doesn't have a part of the keypad exclusively for up/down/left/right without having to sacrifice my number pad.

But it's cool! And it lights up blue!

(We didn't even get the Tron mouse to go with it, so YMMV.)

I checked with the experts (developers) and yes indeedy, those WootPlus purchases will count towards your Woots count and box color.

Somebody talk to me about these two remaining Mountainsmith packs. (Vibe II and Dart II.) I'm not a huge outdoorsmen, but these seem pretty versatile. Comments on quality, longevity, usefulness?

Sigh... My Woot!Plus threads appear to be fizzling (probably because they are not easily accessible from the product pages and most people don't know about / care enough to get to World of Woot!).

I would love some input on the speakers currrently avaialble (Pinnacle). Are their products worth the price? I'm no audiophile but I'd like to be able to play podcasts and movie/TV audio at a substantial volume without distortion (even when I'm across the apartment)...

Anybody got a comment on the Gunnar Optik glasses available. I sit in front of computers all day long-- how is this going to improve my "viewing experience." Going to search for some reviews now...

Well, I hesitated on the Gunnars because I didn't have anything else to buy to take advantage of the $5 all-you-can-ship... That'll teach me to expect Woot!Plus offers to last "until tomorrow."

If it makes you feel better, I don't know that I'd trust a company that can't spell "Optics"
properly anyway.

I'm not sure about these woot plus deals in general to be honest. I noticed that the prices they were offering on lodge cookware was about 10% more expensive than the exact same item on amazon. Oddly enough, this didn't prevent them from selling out.
