Do you like to help needy kids? "Like" Leap Frog on FB and they will donate $10 in toys.

Was gonna post this on the deal side but it's not really a deal.

https://www.facebook.com/LeapFrog?sk=app_116704791729381

For every "Like" Leapfrog gets until 12/15 they'll donate $10 in leapfrog toys to A Foundation for Kids.

Also if you're already a fan you can share the posts and they'll donate $1 for every share.

Great. Now I feel like a selfish a-hole for NOT having a Facebook page.

@captainsuperdawg: Don't feel that way. Instead, be righteously PO'd with the Leap Frog people, who want to guilt-trip you into signing up for more advertising crud by offering to donate to a charity if you do. It's a sleazy marketing tactic, one which they benefit from not only by getting a big new mailing list but also by getting tax deductions from any donations they make to charities.

@magic cave:

I'm almost ready to go create five more accounts so I can upvote your comment properly. (First time I've ever even considered doing this.)

No.

As Herman Cain said:
"If you're a kid and you're not rich, blame yourself."

@izzyizzo: That would be former presidential candidate Cain. Too bad he dropped out; he was a constant source of entertainment.

@magic cave: He might be back. In fact, I can't think of a bigger surprise for "Wacky Wednesday" or "Free Breadsticks (With Your Vote) Friday."

@izzyizzo: The mind boggles. If you haven't had a chance to see it yet, last night's SNL "interview" was one of their better ones, given their track record of the last few years.

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.
