My first wine.woot (and first internet wine purchase) was the Twisted Oak Three-pack on June 2, 2008. I went in for two. Look what you started woot!

Newbie, but 04/29/09. Krupp Brothers, Veraison Synchrony Duo.
Might be one of the top 3 purchases I've made on Woot...great juice.

A great way to start -- 11/11/09 - Ty Caton's TyTanium -- In for three!
Black Zepp had to be my personal favorite -- Judd's Hill, not so much.
Learned (and learning) alot from reading the discussusions, too.
Cellar 11/11/09 - 20 - 25 bottles - just got back from our first real trip to Napa & Sonoma; Cellar 12/22/10 - pushing 200 bottles, made four more trips to Napa, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast & Mendocino AVAs since then (and we live in south Texas!).
Oh Wine.Woot, what have thou wrought?
p.s. I love surveys & polls!
"We hear of the conversion of water into wine at the marriage in Cana as of a miracle. But this conversion is, through the goodness of God, made every day before our eyes. Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, and which incorporates itself with the grapes, to be changed into wine; a constant proof that God loves us, and loves to see us happy." Benjamin Franklin

For me, it was the Wellington Three-Pack Plus Mystery Wine Challenge on 8/11/08 and I was in for 3! What a great way to start! But now, it's the two of us in one house who are wooters!

It appears you're feeling better - that's great news.
My first was the Mandolina Italian Quartet back on July 25, 2007. Had it delivered to my wife's office, but I forgot to tell her it was coming. She almost refused to accept the shipment.

Not the first....but from my initial wine.woot purchase at the beginning of the program to today, it has been the best place to buy wine online in my eyes.

Yep! Feeling better and about cleared to start exercising. They don't really prepare you for how long the road back can be...but I'm upright and taking nourishment, and that, my friend, is the greatest blessing I could possibly have this year!
Merry Christmas all!

The wine.woot that started it: March 8, 2007: Kent Rasmussen Petite Sirah Vertical Trio.
Not a bad way to start.
I really wish we could get another one of those. It was before my time here.

Not only the first place I bought wine online, but wine period. I literally never bothered drinking it until I started reading the main forum.
Mosaic Sonoma White Quartet 4/23/07
Bought it for my wife actually as they claimed one of the wines had notes of Asian Pear, which she adores. She never drank any, and I will bet I still have one bottle of that hanging around. Probably should have drank it long ago.

First wine.woot (and online wine) order was Havens H on 12/23/09. And I admit I'm a complete addict (buying wine more so than drinking - need to build up stamina). I reached black box status this November and my husband bought me a 258 bottle cellar for Christmas this year(which is already completely filled). Thanks WD for corrupting me and thanks to all of the other wooters for an incredible learning experience. Good thing I have an understanding husband!

Looks like I will be the first commenter to say NO. I have yet to buy any wine from Wine.Woot since my wonderful state of Pennsylvania won't allow Woot to sell wine to me. Most of my online wine purchases come from Wine Library/Cinderella Wine, but I have also used Wineaccess, Saratoga Wine Exchange, Last Call Wines & Vinesse Wine Clubs.
My first purchase from Wine.Woot was "Wine Filled Truffles" back on 12/5/2007.
