What do you think of shirt.woot offering daily designs on hoodies and aprons?

Dec 3, 2012 7:02 AM

Starting today, the Daily shirts (Monday-Thursday) will be offered on a choice of t-shirt, apron, and hoodie; the apron and hoodie will only be available on a design's first day. What do you think of having the Daily design available on hoodies and aprons? Will you be more likely to buy from shirt.woot, more likely to be overwhelmed by choice, less likely to buy?

Probably not, but it's a good idea.

I would like to see a hoodie become a daily option. Especially if the hoodie blanks are high quality. Couldn't care less about aprons though.

I will keep my same requirements as before, the design has to be really, really good. To have it on a sweatshirt, it will have to be knock it out of the park to pull the trigger that quickly.

Wow, just noticed, it looks like they are now offering the design in kid's sizes as well. Must have been a long time since I bought a shirt since I have never seen that before.

I think with all the ways they're trying to diversify, I'm concerned about Shirt.Woot's long-term prospects.

It makes a lot of sense to offer the alternative options. The screens are setup for the day's shirt already, so it's just a matter of running that extra production run. Most of the expense in the screen printing portion is the setup, not the ink.

One huge aspect - I'm very glad they are maintaining the commission to the artist for the additional options.

@ganzhimself: The hoodies are good. Not that thick, but not too thin either. I don't need to wear mine often, though, so I can't vouch for their durability.

@wisenekt: The kid's sizes have been offered for over 4 years now. Alas, the referenced products no longer apply. :(

It's a nice option even though I won't be using it.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
