Look at this. An extra 15% off nearly 200 styles, already marked up to 70% off. What did we do to deserve it? Sign up for a free membership? Literally anyone could do that, using any old email address, with no intention of using the account for anything other than farming great discounts on men's shoes. And yet, that's exactly the situation we find ourselves in. And to make things even more ridiculous, we also get free shipping, just for being members. An absolute failure of gatekeeping.

RB3267Â via "DNRAYBAN60" gets 'em for $42 less than Amazon charges. Numbers! Letters! And combinations of the two. These are the foundational skeletal core of any good deal and a good deal here we have struck. Plus, 100% UV protection in non-polarized form.

Store: Woot! An Amazon Company
Discount: Up to 80% off
Shipping: Free shipping w/ Prime
Expiration: April 30
"Random Audio", besides being the subject of this Woot sale, is also the leading descriptor of the musical tastes of DealNews dot com's own N. Gosker. Where does it end? Vapourwave? Muzakwave? Or worst of all, the 10-second minisong genre made exclusively of nine seconds of low humming inevitably ended by one second ear-splitting beeps, Microwave? You can, of course, happily listen to any of these styles through the various portable speakers and earbuds from brands like JBL, Panasonic, and LG on offer in this sale. Or create your own via the microphones on sale. Or your household microwave.

Store: Amazon
Price: $700
Shipping: Free shipping
Lowest By: $200
What if you could get a complete Dell system with an Intel Pentium III processor for $799? With free shipping and six months of America Online. Wait sorry, that deal was from 24 years ago. Instead, how about a Dell Inspiron 14 Plus 7440 Ultra 7 14" Laptop for 30% off and $200 less than Dell is charging directly? There's no AOL bundled but you'll manage.

Store: Nike
Discount: Up to 44% off
Shipping: Free shipping w/ $50 for members
Dunk n' Go Nuts. That's my suggestion for a marketing campaign for these shoes. Although actually that's probably pretty similar to an existing trademark. Better idea: what better logo for a sub-brand called "Dunk" than an iconic silhouette of a basketball player about to smash the ball in for two poin—ah beans, that's probably been done(k) too. Maybe just reduce the prices by up to 44%. Then they'll sell themselves.
