Bypasses the need to go to shopping.yahoo.com by putting a link on the right hand side to sellout.woot.com on every *.woot item page.
Yahoo got butt-hurt when Woot members started browsing directly to Woot Sellout (http://sellout.woot.com/) instead of visiting Yahoo's shopping site (http://shopping.yahoo.com/) for the "Deal of the Day." A delayed redirect was implemented on Woot Sellout that forces users to go to Yahoo's shopping site first and then click a link to go back to Woot Sellout. In addition, no other Woot item page has a link to go to sellout.woot.com.
This script loads the Yahoo Shopping page in the background, finds the Woot Sellout link and product title, and inserts a link on the right hand side.
