I got married in that Italian suit a few weeks ago! $99 for a $1300 suit. Admittedly, it was tight up around the shoulders, but meh...99!

I love having a recession buddy!

I've gotten probably 5 things from the morning deals in the last 6 months.

Grrrrr! I forgot about that hotel deal, AND I missed a $1,300 suit for $99!?

I really could have used a suit. ;_;

So a "Recession Buddy" Prevents you from getting screwed?

Occasionally, the morning deals have something that catches my interest. The bigger part, for me, was learning about some of the other sites where you can find these deals, like dealhack, buxr, etc. I loaded all those into my RSS reader and check them twice a day now. Good stuff!

@hellinmyeyes: It's kinda like having Woot do 20 things at once. I'm addicted to it too.

@Saboth: I've done something similar. Had the suit custom tailored afterward for a mere $40.

@Saboth:

I read this everyday. When was this posted? And can I still get it?

@Ben_Q2: $99 suits are at Amazon:

[www.amazon.com]

If the link doesn't work, just search for suit, should be the first thing to come up. Several colors available.

@AlteredBeast: You can still get the suit at Amazon: [www.amazon.com]

Just be aware it's not really a $1300 suit, but they're supposed to be pretty good for the price.

@Saboth: No way those suits were ever worth $1300 but definitely still a good deal with $50 or so in tailoring. I own a suit similar to the $99 one I got and it goes for about $300 at the most in a department store.

@downwithmonstercable: I love woot, dealhacker, etc. but you have to realize that sometimes they let you spend money on things you don't need and wouldn't have purchased without them, deal or no deal. Just something to keep in mind.

my husband wore a $129-marked-down-from-$1300 amazon.com suit at our recent wedding. decent suit, good deal. the $1300 value is highly suspect, however. searching "suit" on amazon ended weeks of attempts to find a black vested suit. hooray!

Get me some daily deal lovin..

The morning deals on Consumerists are icing on the cake!

wow. so someone actually got that hotel deal? nice. jealous, but happy for you.

yay, a recession buddy.. err, a recession buddy that is being sold off by Gawker due to the, umm, recession. *blinks*

I think it was 2 or 3 weeks ago or so, my husband received his expense check for all of the driving he does for work. We were discussing what he'd like for Christmas and all that, and he mentioned he wanted a new monitor for his desktop so he could play Fallout on a larger screen (he was playing it on his laptop).

During that week, I caught your morning deals, and there was a 22-inch widescreen monitor from some no-name company up for $160-something with free shipping. I took a look at it, and on the left-hand side, the site was advertising similar offers. I found on that toolbar a 22-inch widescreen Acer for $175. Hook, line, and sinker. My husband loves his new monitor. Thank you very much Consumerist, even if we didn't directly buy from your morning deals but your morning deals got us to the deal we needed. :)

@citnos: If that no-name company was AOC or Envision (both the same company and both being the ones that's been selling for about $160 with free shipping within the last 4 weeks), then you actually would have gotten a better monitor than the Acer, at a cheaper price. PC Magazine gave AOC/Envision their top rating and said it's the best they've seen/used. ;]

I took advantage of the tip directing me to Amazon the day At&T phones were all somehow $1 (or free? I can't remember specifically how much). I ended up with an expensive phone for almost nothing, since I was going to continue my plan anyway. Thank you!

Yay! Next up: Ketel One deals!
