I need to know which browser extension actually works for tracking Walmart prices without glitching out every five minutes because I’m trying to snag this 65 inch TV before the weekend and the price is jumping all over the place. I have about 600 bucks saved up for my brothers housewarming party here in Columbus and I really want to get him something nice but I literally cannot sit at my desk refreshing the page all day while I'm at work and my boss is breathing down my neck.
I did some digging online and I saw a lot of people talking about Capital One Shopping and also Keepa but then I read a thread on reddit saying Keepa is basically only good for Amazon now and doesn't really update the Walmart listings fast enough for limited stock deals. Then I tried Honey because everyone uses that but the price dropper thing feels super delayed? Like last week I got a notification that a soundbar went on sale three hours after it was already sold out so I really dont trust it for something high-demand like this TV.
I'm looking for something that:
Is there anything better out there that I'm missing? I heard about something called Glass It or maybe Slickdeals has a tracker but I've never used them and I'm worried about installing a bunch of bloatware on my chrome right before I need to make a fast purchase. I really need to get this ordered by Thursday at the latest so it arrives by Saturday morning for the party. Does anyone have a go-to that actually catches the drops the second they happen? Every dollar counts right now since I also gotta buy the wall mount and some HDMI cables and the budget is tight...
Quick reply while I have a sec!! I spent weeks hunting for a PS5 and felt that same frustration. I tried big extensions but they felt so behind. What worked for me:
Honestly, I went through the same struggle when hunting for a patio set last year. Honey and Capital One just kept missing the flash sales on Walmart. After some trial and error, Glass It is what I finally settled on and I've been super happy with the results. It pings the servers frequently enough that the alerts are legit useful. When tracking a Vizio screen recently, it caught a 50 dollar drop within 20 minutes. Basically works well without all the annoying popups or browser clutter. Since you're on a tight deadline for the party in Columbus, definitely give it a shot. The history graph is clear too, so you'll know if that 600 bucks is a real deal. No complaints here, it's pretty solid for tracking price jumps.
