Distill Web Monitor for price change alerts on any website

Distill Web Monitor can do many more things, but I'm using it for running in the background to check and alert me if any prices change on items I'm watching for price drops. I have some more expensive items, like whisky or toothbrush heads, that I'll buy two or three of if I see the price drops. Sometimes the price falls quite a bit (maybe due to a website error even) and then I get my alert, and put my order in! But it can alert to any changes on a web page, so need not just be prices, and is also useful for alerting whether an item is back in stock too.
Distill Web Monitor can run in the background using a browser extension for monitoring of up to 25 items for free (called local monitoring), and at one minute intervals if required. In my video, I'll show how I'm using it for the actual items I'm monitoring, and how to add a new item to monitor by just pointing and clicking. I also show how a condition can be set to only alert you if a price drops below a certain amount, and how to see the price history of an item you're monitoring.

Great video, and super handy for saving money!

[@GadgeteerZA]

It really is!

[@Mr767267]

Nice! it would be nice to have features as:
1. Warn if element is not trackable, due to a change on page or code.
2. Alert via email or sms
Also, not sure if it can hold the session and re-login if required?

[@GadgeteerZA]

Yes, it's far from perfect. I've been looking again for other options (even tried a self-hosted one again, but it was no better than when I previously tried it). Seems most services want payment now too. The complexity of web pages also probably does not help much either.

Will this get your retail account banned? Such as amazon, walmart etc?

[@GadgeteerZA]

No not at all, it does a basic web fetch so it recognised like a normal web page load. It's not scraping thousands of pages.
