The Best Product Tracking Sites That Send You Price Alerts When Your Favorite Items Go On Sale

Let’s face it, most of us don’t have a lot of time to shop. I know I don’t.

One way that you can minimize the time spent shopping for the best deal is to use online shopping site trackers that provide automatic price alerts via email whenever a product you’re looking for goes on sale.

Here are my favorite price tracking sites:

#1 – PricePinx

PricePinx uses a different (better) system than most of the other product tracking websites.

First, you sign up for an account, and then drag their bookmarklet to your browser’s toolbar.

Whenever you’re shopping online and see something you like, you highlight the price and then click on the PricePinx bookmarklet.

Then, when the price drops for that item, PricePinx notifies you via e-mail.

You can use PricePinx bookmarklet when shopping at thousands of different online stores. (These are definitely among the most popular places that people shop online too!)

PricePinx is my favorite site that alerts you about lower prices because you don’t have to go to their website to search for products each time and then set up individual alerts. Instead, you simply go to all your favorite online stores — like normal when you’re browsing online — and use the PricePinx bookmarklet while you’re there. You don’t have to do anything “special” to set up the price alerts.

#2 – Shop It To Me

Shop It To Me lets you know when the price drops on clothing items for your favorite brands and in your size across the Web.

Once you tell them all of your favorite clothing brands, your size, etc. they scour all of the best online shops to find items you love — on sale — in your size.

They bring them to you whichever way you prefer:

You can check your new sales daily by logging onto their website,
You can read through their new alerts in your email, or
You can check the latest price alerts on your iPhone.

I like their “Salemail” alerts — which are daily (or weekly) emails highlighting which items are currently on sale in your size.

Shop It To Me’s strength is monitoring the websites of leading clothing retailers. We’re not just talking about stores like Walmart and JCPenny, but also more specialized stores like Bluefly, Nordstroms, Zappos.

One popular way to use Shop It To Me is to track the brands and sizes of your child’s favorite clothes. I read that one lady saved $580 when she used it to shop for school clothes!

Other Great Price Tracking Sites

TIP: It never hurts to set price alerts on more than one product tracking website. That way, you can be sure that you are actually getting to see all of the good deals that are out there for the products that you’re most interested in. You will also be able to see where some sites may be missing some deals!

  I use this site too. I have found a few nice deals.

i used to track price drops with http://contentino.eu – it is easy to use.
- Disgruntled
  
  I think they forgot to make the actual “site” part of the site. Plus, you have to give them all of your personal information before you can start using the site.

What about local stores who use a corporate website , like Lowes.
Is there a place that could check when the specific store puts a seasonal item up for clearance?
- FunTimesGuide
  
  Hi mdwebneck, I use Patroneer to keep track sales at of all my favorite stores: https://www.patroneer.com/stores/lowes?from=search
  
  Just add your favorite stores to your Patroneer “favorites” list and they’ll email you every time there’s a new sale from that store. It doesn’t watch specific items for you though — just specific stores.

    thanks I’ll try that
