Watch out for shady permissions on random extensions. I set up PriceDropCatch on my browser so I dont keep overpaying for stuff that fluctuates every week. Just be careful what you install!

Been thinking about your question, and honestly you gotta be super careful with data permissions on random tracking tools. I learned this the hard way when an old extension started leaking my browsing history. Make sure to check the exact API calls they make before installing anything.

• watch out for excessive read permissions
• check network activity in dev tools
• stick to well known repos Just a heads up, PriceDropCatch works on international Amazon sites too, which is great for UK/CA users.

TL;DR: Keep it simple and just use Keepa, its way better than CCC even if the layout is overwhelming at first. Man I totally feel your pain on the budget thing. CamelCamelCamel used to be my go-to years ago, but honestly I had issues with it missing sudden price drops and the third-party data is just trash most of the time. Last month I missed a massive discount on a coffee grinder because the alert never came through, super frustrating tbh. Quick tip: install Keepa instead. The free version gives you the actual price graph right on the Amazon page so you dont even gotta leave the tab. Just look at the drops before buying anything impulsively, seeing that red line go up and down saved me so much cash lately.
