Woot This Week

by Kathleen Richards

Welcome to Woot This Week, where every week we count down five of the coolest/weirdest/craziest items currently for sale on Woot!

And now, without further ado, the top five cool things I found on Woot this week:

5. Licensed Tavern Signs, $69.86-$44.99

Everything is better when it's old timey. Even bar signs that you're going to hang up in your basement.

4. Downton Abbey Cabernet & Chardonnay, $63.99

I think all TV shows should have some sort of associated product you can buy. And if we're not going to get a line of beautiful lady Mary clothes, I'll take this fancy Downton Abbey wine instead. Even though it really should have a picture of Carson on the bottle IMO.

3. Existence Technology Electric Folding Bike, $899.99

Bikes are pretty great, but they have two major drawbacks: you have to pedal them yourself and if you get tired of all that peddling, you can't fit the bike in your car. Luckily, we've solved both problems with this foldable, electric bike!

2. Lionel Pennsylvania Flyer Ready-to-Play Set, $69.99

Who says model trains need to be just for kids and creepy old guys? I say, get a model train in the most adult way possible. That is, build an extensive set of tracks througout your house that let your train run room to room and deliver small items to other family members for you. What could be more adult than investing a lot of time and energy into a complicated project that's ultimately kind of useless? In my experience, nothing.

1. The Wand Company 12th Doctor's Sonic Screwdriver - Gesture-Based Universal Remote Control Prop Replica, $84.99

If you're a Dr. Who fan, I can guess that your house might be filled with a fair amount of useless Dr. Who crap. But guess what? This Sonic Screwdriver isn't just one more piece of useless Dr. Who crap, because it isn't useless! Apart from being a super-cool piece of Dr. Who memoribilia, it's also a universal tv remote! Use it to put on Dr. Who!

Those are my finds for this week, friends! Did you find something weird and cool on Woot this week? Don't be selfish! Post it here!
