Yeah, you read that headline right. Discount electronics site eCost has an awesome Black Friday offer appropriately named the Outrageous Offer.

According to the graphic, the site will be offering one Wii each hour for US$99 starting at 8:00 a.m. (EST), November 28, 2008. The Wii comes with Wii Sports, sensor bar, stand, a WiiMote and a Nunchuck. The graphic indicates that eCost estimates that only 10 Wiis will be sold at that price.

Update: eCost has changed the deal “due to overwhelming response.” Now, the site’s graphics indicates it will offer one Wii for $99 each day for 10 days, beginning Thanksgiving night (November 27, 2008). The first will be sold some time between 8 and 10 pm, November 27, 2008, while rest of the Wiis will be sold at random times, 1 Wii per day, over the following 9 days (10 Wiis total). (end update)

The s-Wii-t deal (sorry, had to do it) will be available in the Bargain Countdown section of the site. Deals on eCost are often limited by either the amount of items and time, thus a countdown for bargains.

The site has had some decent deals over the years including many free items (I’ve “purchased” a multicard reader and USB WiFi adapter for $0.00 - or “free-ninety-nine, as I like to call it - from eCost in the past). Right now, for example, there’s a 2GB DDR2 SDRAM for $10 (regularly $39.99). The site does charge shipping on top of special offers so be sure to check the details when ordering.

The site also promises to have other Outrageous Offers as indicated by a tiny icon: The Wii deal has yet to be promoted on the site’s home page but was sent to newsletter subscribers today (November 25, 2008).
