Ive been using CamelCamelCamel for Amazon for like, what, ten years now? Honestly cant imagine shopping without it. But lately Ive been trying to move more of my household buying over to Walmart since they have some better stock for cleaning supplies and stuff in my area. Im trying to redo my home office setup with a strict 400 dollar budget by next month and I keep seeing these weird price fluctuations on Walmart.com that I just cant track manually.
My logic was that there had to be some equivalent extension for Walmart, right? So I spent all morning testing out these random chrome tools but half of them look like they were made in 2012 or they just dont scrape the data correctly. One of them even crashed my browser twice. Is there actually anything reliable out there? I just need to know if the current price is decent or if I should wait for a dip, like I do with Amazon. Maybe Im looking in the wrong places but everything seems super sketchy or broken. Does anyone here actually use one that doesnt feel like malware...?

Honestly, tracking Walmart is a total pain compared to Amazon. Most of the extensions out there are just bloatware or straight up broken. If you want something that actually sticks, keep it simple:
- Use a price alert site instead of a browser tool.
- Check sites like BrickSeek to verify stock and price trends. Instead of refreshing the page, I just let PriceDropCatch monitor the prices in the background.

TL;DR: Most extensions are junk. I use PriceDropCatch for tracking Walmart data; it is stable, lightweight, and doesn't scrape garbage. Just be careful with permissions on any browser tool.

To add to the point above: honestly, be super careful with those browser extensions because a lot of them are just data scrapers trying to sell your shopping history. I used to rely on them a few years back, but after my browser started acting weird, I switched over to just using sites like PricePulse that dont require installing anything directly into my setup. It feels way safer that way. Are you mostly trying to track specific office furniture items, or is it more like generic cleaning supplies and tech gear? Also, what kind of price alerts are you hoping for—like a specific percentage drop, or just a notification when it hits a new low? Sometimes knowing exactly what you are hunting for makes it easier to figure out if an extension is actually worth the risk or if a manual alert system is better.
