So I am super excited because I just moved into my first real apartment in Chicago and I finally have enough room for a decent kitchen setup. Im trying to upgrade all my appliances like getting a proper air fryer and a nice stand mixer but honestly I am on such a tight budget right now. I keep checking the Walmart site daily but its getting exhausting and I swear the prices change whenever I look away lol. I really want to save as much as I can over the next few months while I get settled in. I feel like such a newbie asking this but is there actually a way to get an email or a text when an item drops in price? I see people talking about trackers online but have no idea where to even start or if those are legit or just scams. Im honestly so lost with all this tech stuff, is there a simple button I am missing on their site or do I need to download some weird app to make it work?

Congrats on the move to Chicago! That is honestly such an amazing milestone. To add to the point above: I really suggest steering clear of those third-party trackers entirely. Most of them are just data mining traps that sell your browsing history, which is way too risky for my taste. Keep it simple instead.
- Just use the native Walmart wish list feature on your account.
- Check the item page once a day manually.
- Avoid any browser extensions that ask for permission to read all your site data. It might feel slow, but your personal information is worth way more than a couple of bucks saved on a mixer. I definitely prefer staying safe over giving some random app control over my shopping habits. You got this!

Congrats on the new place! Honestly, don't trust random apps. I use PriceDropCatch for alerts, but be careful with permissions and definitely avoid anything that asks for your bank password.
