Why YSK: Many people want to find a great deal during sales, and many sellers take advantage of this. They raise the price a few days before the sale and then lower it just to show a large discount.

Always check price history charts to see what prices were like in the past and make sure the discount is real. This will help you avoid impulse purchases, shop at the lowest prices, and find real deals.

It would be great if you could list good price trackers you use for Walmart, eBay, and other stores. This will be especially helpful during ongoing and upcoming sales.

I’ve noticed that after I buy something on Amazon, it often drops in price within my return window. So I’ve started rebuying it at the lower price and returning the original order.

The differences are usually $5–10 per item, but it adds up fast when you order a lot. In the past few weeks, I’ve saved about $50 doing this.

The annoying part is checking prices manually every day. Prices sometimes drop the more you view an item, and sometimes they rise after a return, which feels like the algorithm or seller is passing costs to the next buyer.

The apps I’ve tried on Android seem outdated. Is there a reliable app or Chrome extension that tracks price drops and coupons? Ideally, it would sync with your Amazon account so items are added automatically.

Credit card “price rewind” features used to help, but those are mostly gone now.
