Check if a sale price is a real deal
The price history and other stores' prices, and whether the discount is real.
- You start it: When you start it
What it does
The task
Open product url and read the sale price and the 'was' price. Find the price history for the last 6 months on a price tracker site, and today's price at 5 other stores on Google Shopping. Say if the sale price is the lowest in 6 months, and if the 'was' price was a real price for at least 30 days. Tell me to buy now or to wait, with the reason in two sentences.
- It works in Amazon, Google Shopping and any website, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
- It runs once, when you start it.
What you give it
| Blank | What to give | Example |
|---|---|---|
| product url | The product page with the sale price | amazon.de/dp/B0D7K2XQ4M |
What you get back
An example run with the example values above. Your run uses your own data.
Aurex S7 robot vacuum: sale 349 EUR, 'was' 549 EUR (36% off)
Price history, 6 months: mostly 389 to 449 EUR. The lowest was 339 EUR on 8 Jul.
'Was' 549 EUR: shown for 4 days in October only, so the 36% is not real. The real saving is about 40 EUR (10%).
Other stores today: Kestrel Electronics 359 EUR, Brightline Home 369 EUR, 3 more from 379 to 399 EUR
Advice: buy now if you need it this month. The price is 10 EUR above the 6-month low, and it often drops in late November.
