Here’s a quick rundown of what these tools offer and why you should add them to your arsenal. 

CamelCamelCamel

If you haven’t tried CamelCamelCamel, you definitely should. This website makes it super easy to see the price history of a given product, so you truly know if what you’re seeing is just a decent discount or the lowest price ever. The site will also tell you at glance the current price, the highest and the lowest price, as well as the average. The site will even display 3rd party price history, though it doesn’t tell you which ones. If you don’t want to visit the website each time you’re curious, you can also download the Camelizer extension (opens in new tab) to the Chrome or Edge browser. Whether you use the site or the extension, you can enter your email address to receive price alerts.   It’s worth noting that the extension doesn’t take into account coupon codes, which you might need to manually enter during the checkout process. However, it’s still an indispensable tool for consumers, especially during the holidays. (Make sure to check out our coupon guides for other ways to save this holiday season).
