Price Drop Notifications is a simple tool for tracking Amazon product prices without accounts, browser extensions, or clutter. You paste an Amazon product URL, choose the price you want to pay, and enter your email. It monitors the price and send you an email when it reaches or drops below your target. It’s built for people who already know what they want to buy and just don’t want to keep checking prices manually. It is 100% free and works entirely through email — no sign-up required.
The idea is cool, it would be nice to not have to repeatedly enter your email address if add multiple alerts. It would also be nice if the current price could be brought in through an automated look up from the item URL. The Target price suggests the alert will trigger when the price drops below the price the user provides, but it appears it may send an alert at the price the user sets. Not knowing the pricing history of an item, my instinct is to set the target price to be below the current price for the alert.
It's got potential, might be better built as a browser extension so the user can use it while on Amazon instead of having to click back and forth between browser tabs.
