Gold Box: New Deals. Every Day.
Prosepra Electronic Pulse Massager
Expired!
4.0 out of 5 stars   (154)
Special guest deal presented by our colleagues at Woot!: "Think about the things that stress you out throughout the day; the people and situations that twist you up with anxiety. Now imagine shooting a big bolt of electricity to blast them all away. ZAPP! That weird noise your car makes for a few seconds after you turn off the ignition? BZZZT! That confusion about whether there's one line for all the self-checkout lanes at the supermarket, or whether each machine has its own line? ZORCHH! All gone in a blaze of high-voltage fury! That's not exactly what the Prosepra pulse massager does. It uses safe, FDA-approved transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to soothe muscles, relieve pain, and reduce tension. But we've found it works even better when we imagine shooting electricity at everyone and everything that irritates us."

I would have bought it if not for the stupid description. "imagine shooting a big bolt of electricity to blast them all away"..."ZAPP! That weird noise your car makes for a few seconds after you turn off the ignition? BZZZT!

Seriously Amazon?

Actual discount = $4

Don't be fooled by <A>'s misleading "today's discount".

This device is nearly 200 years late and would have greatly helped Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin give more credibility and control of the situation. It would also be very useful for managing that recalcitrant individual you were responsible for. However, there are cheaper sources, why a safety pin and a light socket has been doing the same thing since Edison showed us the way.

Billa gets a lot of flack for his posts, often deservedly so.

But today, we get a substandard Woot Gold Box description and he, in their style, blows them away in reply.

Let's see if Billa sets a Billa-record for the most number of "Yes" votes this time.

And if you're thinking of voting him down because such posts have no place in a Gold Box discussion, consider this: Woot started it!

(Note to Amazon...You give us Woot, we'll give you Billa.)

From the product description page:

"Price: $24.99 ($2.08 / oz)"

Very helpful for those who like to buy their massagers by the pound.

@SB
I am not a lawyer, but the ad copy from w00t! seems to on the edge of inciting violence in the workplace. I don't see any means of flagging the DOTD as inappropriate but in this instance I wish there was.

Well, I am picking this up as soon as I post.

I sprained my back badly, and in 2002 got a prescription for a TENS unit. You don't want to know how much it cost! It was a lifesaver for me. But it used rechargeable batteries, and I had to charge them on the unit. I stopped using it for a while, and now it won't charge again.

I sprained my back again this past weekend. Not a bad one, but it keeps reminding me I did it. I am in like Flynn on this deal. FTR, I've looked at TENS units on Amazon quite a bit in the past, and I don't expect top quality from this, but the price is most definitely right. Good luck finding a unit with 4 leads at this price that has a decent review.

The reason I don't buy things from Groupon . . . is stupid descriptions. Same goes for this.

I do not like Woot. Reading their web page they stand behind nothing and you must deal with the manufacter if anything is wrong even on delivery. I do not know if this is true for items sold through Amazon but I will not take a chance.

In reply to an earlier post on Feb 23, 2012 4:16:54 AM PST
That's Woot! If you have ever been to the site you would realize all their product descriptions are tongue in cheek. Geez....

In reply to an earlier post on Feb 23, 2012 4:18:36 AM PST
Not true. Been dealing with Woot for years and they have been awesome if there was ever an issue...which there rarely is.

I am also buying one. I have pain in the back part of my shoulder for over 14 years, and i refuse to take pain killers, so this may be what i need, and for this low price and decent reviews, i got exited and worth to try it.

I almost everyday read this page. Many people critique Billa's posts, but his posts are the most waited posts. The guy is sleeping and many of you are thinking and talking about him and his post.
Haha

Well, gee, patriciae, if you look at Amazon's product page, it does say you have a 30-day guarantee. If you don't like it, you can return it.

I was at the supermarket the other day, and they were describing their fresh bread as "like a slice of Heaven". Well, I don't know what this "Heaven" is, but it sounded religious, so I'm never buying anything from a supermarket ever again.

Good for you, Cody!

In reply to an earlier post on Feb 23, 2012 4:42:29 AM PST
LaPana, Billa is just entertaining himself/herself. You're right. People shouldn't let Billa's posts bother them. But sometimes Billa is spot-on.

Posted on Feb 23, 2012 4:58:08 AM PST
I may buy this due to the description- which was awesome - so woot!
But I'm still wondering, will this tens unit work on chronic hip pain?

Sounds like a TASER with that description.

Ever been to woot.com? They are presenting the deal and that is how their descriptions often go.

In reply to an earlier post on Feb 23, 2012 5:24:55 AM PST
If you haven't used a TENS unit before, you won't know till you try it. If your hip pain is coming from your spine, it should work if you place the leads on both sides of your lumbar spine.

Its the "groupon" phenomenon - a certain generation thinks its cute/clever?! Just give some info about the product - no way to tell how it actually works from this description.
