    Default Can I set an alert for when items go on sale online? Amazon Prime or other places?

    So there's a few items I have my eye on and I'm waiting for some sales. Is there a way I can get notified when an item goes on sale on Amazon?
    For instance this item:

    I use keepa extension for chrome. It adds a graph to every product on amazon so you can see the price history of the past year. And you can set it to alert you when it drops below a certain price.

    Camelcamelcamel is good but you may want to turn off 3rd party sellers or you'll be bombarded with emails of "new" sellers with zero feedback selling nonexistent products at ridiculous low prices. It's also good if you need to check history.

    It's not the size that matters, it's the taste it leaves in your mouth.

    If you put stuff in your shopping cart you are interested in, anytime a price changes it will alert you in your cart.

    I got a WD hitch setup that was normally $550cdn for $300 by doing this

    I think it only does that with your Wish List on amazon, not your shopping cart unless I'm missing something.

    I'm the kind of person that just adds stuff to my cart slowly wondering if I should buy it or not. It definitely updates you with a "prices have changed in your cart" notification.

    Cool, I'll have to give that a try. I have it linked to my wishlist, but probably have never seen a cart notification because I don't add things without buying them haha.
