New Woot shirt presents the original Sonic the Hedgehog photo

Buying a shirt from Woot appears to be a gambling game which you rarely ever win -- the designs are just so awesome that each new product seems to be sold out within minutes. That's why I did the smart thing and ordered this shirt before writing this article. Now that I have a Sonic-themed shirt safely secured, I don't mind telling the rest of you about it.

As is typical of Woot's designs, this one is simple but brilliant, and the fact that it's centered around my favorite hedgehog is just icing on the cake. It's a mere ten bucks and comes with free shipping, so if you want one, act fast. Speaking as someone who has failed in the past to get a Woot shirt, I know how quickly these bastards can fly. 

Now I am going to spend the rest of the day grinning, for I have an awesome shirt.

ah yes, I check woot daily. haven't ordered a shirt in a while (mainly because I have five already and don't want to keep spending money), but designs like these make me happy.

Jimbo, you can buy sold out woot shirts if they're popular enough here:

http://www.shirtsonsale.info/2007/10/shirtwoot-15-tees-friends-links-updated_9704.html

Based off of sales, they reproduce the top 20 shirt designs with the bottom 5 falling out each week and being replaced by that weeks new designs. It's a great way to get your shirts if you missed them on their day. The problem is they now cost $15..
