If you loathe paying retail, listen up. A company owned by Amazon is rewarding those who don't immediately buy new tech, and instead wait for a good deal. "Grade A Refurbished" Apple Watches are selling for as much as 62% off at Woot.
The Apple Watch Series 8, 41mm, GPS Only (Grade A Refurbished) is on sale for $150. That's 62% off its original price of $399. This means you're getting an Apple Watch for a third of the price it was when released in September 2022.

Just because this Apple Watch isn't brand-new, doesn't mean you don't have choices.
Woot is offering both the GPS and GPS + Cellular models of this watch. You can get it in two sizes, 41mm and 45mm, and four color combinations. The Red is bold, but I might grab the Midnight because of its versatility.

What Shoppers Are Saying: 'Love a Refurbished Deal'
Woot pulled in over 2,600 Amazon ratings from buyers for the Apple Watch Series 8. The average star rating from Amazon is 4.2 out of five.
One satisfied buyer says, "Very happy with this refurbished Apple Watch Series 8. Looks and works like new with no visible scratches or issues. Battery life is great, and all features function perfectly. Setup was quick and easy. Great value compared to buying new. Highly recommend if you're looking to save without sacrificing quality."
Another five-star reviewer says, "This watch has all the bells and whistles of a new Apple Watch but without the price tag. Love a refurbished deal. Felt good rehoming this beauty. Battery life is okay (had to get used to charging it every two days). I went from a Fitbit to an Apple Watch, and there is for sure a learning curve. Both with the functionality and the user interface. I used it as I was training for a marathon. It monitored all my health metrics and alerted when I was in need of a rest day."
Another reviewer says, "Love, love, love it. One tiny scratch and you can't see it unless you put it right in front of your eye. I'm so in love. Looks brand new. Works very well. Only problem is that when I had gotten it, it was super dead. Charged it for about two hours, and everything was great."

Activist investor Starboard builds over 9% stake in Rogers
(Reuters) -Activist investor Starboard Value said on Wednesday it has built a 9.3% stake in Rogers Corp as it seeks to push for changes at the advanced materials maker. Shares of Rogers were up 10% in extended trade. However, the stock has fallen more than 30% so far this year. Rogers, which makes advanced materials used in electric and hybrid cars, automotive safety, radar systems and other industrial applications, has a market value of about $1.28 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. Reuters reported in 2023 that the activist investor was building a sizable stake in Rogers and was seeking seats on the company's board in its push for changes. The investor said it believes shares of Rogers, at the time of purchase, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity. Starboard had previously entered into an agreement with Rogers regarding the composition of its board and other matters, it said in a regulatory filing. Following the agreement, Starboard has engaged in discussions with Rogers' management and board regarding opportunities for value creation. The Wall Street Journal reported that Starboard had built a stake of over 9% in Rogers earlier on Wednesday.
