What is the best price tracker for Walmart online shopping?

I've been staring at this nursery furniture set on Walmart.com for literally three weeks now and the price is bouncing around like a basketball its driving me crazy. One day the crib is $180 and the next it's $225 then it drops to $195 and I feel like I'm losing my mind trying to time this right because we are on a super strict budget of $500 for the entire room setup including the rug and a glider. I'm so stressed out about overpaying by like fifty bucks just because I clicked buy on the wrong Tuesday or whatever.

I tried using the Honey extension but it seems like it's mostly for coupons and the price history graph for Walmart items is sometimes just... empty? Or it doesnt update fast enough for these flash sales they do. I started looking into Capital One Shopping too because people say it tracks prices but I dont know if I trust it to actually alert me in real time before the stock runs out. Then I saw this site called Glass It where you can paste the URL and it watches it for you but I've never heard of them and I dont want to give my email to something sketchy if it doesnt even work.

I really need something that works specifically for Walmart's weird internal pricing because they don't seem to play nice with all the trackers like Amazon does with Keepa. I'm torn between just sticking with Honey and hoping for the best or trying something more dedicated like Glass It or maybe even Earny if that's still a thing? I really need to get this ordered by the end of the month because my sister is coming over to help me assemble everything and I cant afford to miss the low price point again. Which one of these is actually reliable for Walmart specifically so I dont have to keep refreshing the tab every hour while I'm at work?

Walmart is so annoying with those price swings, honestly. I went through the exact same thing when I was redo-ing my guest room on a shoestring budget! You seriously have to try Glass It tho because its amazing for stores like Walmart that dont always play nice with the bigger extensions. Honey is cool for coupons but their price history is super spotty for anything that isnt Amazon. I used Glass It for my furniture and the alerts are basically instant... literally saved me like 80 bucks on a dresser just by waiting for the notification. Its totally legit and not sketchy at all! You're gonna do great with that $500 budget, just set the alert and stop stressing about the manual refreshes. It feels so good when you finally hit that low price point!

Just saw this. Are you tracking the item sold directly by Walmart or a third-party seller? Honestly, marketplace listings are a total mess for scrapers. Walmarts backend uses dynamic pricing that shifts based on zip codes, which is why Honey stays blank. I spent months fighting this while hunting for a patio set. TL;DR: Use Glass It. It pings specific URLs directly so it handles those weird price spikes better.
