One Deal a Day Sites

The best of these is unarguably woot!. One of the most popular sites on the internet, woot! features brilliant writing, a popular discussion group, and an amazingly loyal audience. So loyal that when woot! lists their famous "bag of crap", it sells out literally in minutes.

They primarily sell electronics, usually things like computers and peripherals, or sound equipment and accessories, but some cooking- related items too. They've recently featured a lot of toasters.

Items are sold directly from woot.com to the purchasers, and you must be a woot! member to buy anything. All previous feature descriptions remain in their blog and discussion area, though of course not for purchase.

All the writing on their site is extremely entertaining: not only the product descriptions, but also podcasts, their weekly web roundup, and even their FAQs. And they have the only clever Google ad I've ever seen, in years of ad reading.

Another favorite - very well done and very popular - one deal a day site is Yugster.com. Well written, well designed, it also features a limited number of one item per day. But there's also a "Second Chance Offer" when the original product is sold out. Yugster ships to the U.S. and Canada, and changes their product at 6:00 a.m. eastern time.

Did you know that Amazon has one-day deal pages? They do, and like all daily deals, if they have what you want, it's a great way to save a lot of money.

Amazon's Goldbox page has one or two big discounted products every day, with each deal lasting one day, or even just a few hours. Entire CDs for 99 cents, big discounts on electronics - you'll definitely want to check it out.

They've also just started a Kindle Daily Deal page - one eBook a day at a big discount. And, finally, they have one completely free Android app every day. What's better than free?

And did you know you can get public library books for your Kindle? Read how here.
