* '''Daily Deal''' - This category is like the sale section, but it features one particular item, usually one of the more expensive ones, and sells it for about 50% off. It also displays two timers: one that shows when the next 2 "deals" start, and one that shows when the current "deal" ends. However, they have the same countdown time, so you can look at either.
