- Small boutiques can use the idea to have sale on last season’s accessories,
- Charities can use the idea with donated items for a BoC fundraiser.
- I’m pretty sure you can even use for a weekend yard sale.

Woot, the online site famous for its one day deals, has come up with one of the greatest – and cheapest- sales promotion this blog has seen yet. (Which, is only one so far. But that still a feat in itself!) Introducing: THE BAG OF CRAP
HOW IT WORKS:
On a random day, Woot will have a WootOff where they try to sell any extra inventory they have. One of the most sought out items is the “Bag of Crap”. For three dollars, the online buyer will receive a “Bag of Crap” which is filled with three items (if you remember to click three while ordering!). People have been known to get TV’s, iPods, even laptops! They’ve also gotten half a cracked floor tile (not kidding). The thrill is that the buyer never knows! So obviously, they buy more.
HOW YOU CAN WORK IT:
Try to hold a “Bag of Crap” sales promotion! You can change it around to be in a shoebox, or something instead of “crap” (if you’re market is mostly families) –try to tailor the actual name to your business/organization (Woot’s known for its offhand humor and witty comments, so BoC fits). But the idea itself is brilliant! And can be worked a number of different ways:
