Are there any FUNNY ecommerce websites out there?

steve

I`m so tired of serious (boring) websites. Are there any examples of
funny, or at least fun, websites where the primary purpose is to sell
products? I`m looking for some ideas.

Steve-oCan`t say that it`s a rolling laugh riot, but I think Moosejaw mixes humor and sales nicely. Very laid-back and casual humor, without being snide and snarky (you know, kind of like us....)http://www.moosejaw.comApparently, their e-mail is really a hoot.

Even a page full of bad puns would be more fun than most pages I`ve seen.

A page full of bad puns...In that case, I can write copy for you.

I knew we`d collaborate on something eventually.

If you love someone, set them gluten free.

Kim, You have a wonderfully warped sense of humor. And I mean that in the nicest way.

Aaron, that sounds great. I`d love to see some examples.

I`m thinking of an animated cookie that has, shall we say a slightly confused, cookie-centric view of the world and of history.
For instance, did you know that the first draft of Patrick Henry`s
famous speech actually said "give me cookies or give me death"? It`s
true.

Also, at the Boston Tea Party, they threw the tea overboard because there were no cookies.

Enjoy!

Thanks, Zepp, I`ll check it out. You never know where a good idea will come from.

woot.com has some outstanding copy from time to time, you really have to check it out for a while to appreciate it.

Looks like Honda already has theHoot.com.

I`ve heard about woot.com but hadn`t seen it until now. You`re right it`s funny. I`ll have to keep an eye on it for inspiration.
