In case you haven't seen these

and you probably have, because I'm usually six months out of date...

Yarn Find, kinda like eBay for yarn

Woot, which describes itself thusly:

Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it's taken on a life of its own. We anticipate profitability by 2043 – by then we should be retired; someone smarter might take over and jack up the prices. Until then, we're still the lovable scamps we've always been. But don't take our word for it: see what the online community has to say at this Wikipedia article.


I like their sense of humor. My sister wondered if our youngest brother was behind the site but he denies all responsibility. As his wife concurs... it must be true.
