So I have been looking at this espresso machine for a while now, its a Breville Bambino and I really want to get it for my apartment here in Seattle before my sister comes to visit next month. The problem is the price on Amazon just keeps jumping around like crazy. One day its like 350 and the next it is 450 and I just dont understand why they do that. I'm trying to save as much as I can because my budget is pretty tight right now after moving and I dont want to overpay if the price is gonna drop tomorrow.
Somebody told me there are websites that can tell you when the price drops but I really really dont want to sign up for anything or give my email address away. I already get way too much junk mail and I'm just not tech savvy enough to deal with more accounts and passwords and all that stuff. I tried looking at one called CamelCamelCamel or something like that but it looked really confusing with all the charts and I couldnt figure out if I needed an account or not to actually use it. I'm worried if I click the wrong thing I'll start getting a hundred emails a day.
I'm basically just looking for something where I can just paste the link and it tells me if the price is good or bad right now without me having to login or anything. Is that even a thing? I feel kinda silly asking because it probably is a basic thing but I have no idea where to start. Are there any specific websites or maybe things I can just add to my browser that do this for free and wont track me?
I just want to make sure I'm getting the best deal before I spend my savings on this coffee maker and I dont want to be tracked by a bunch of different companies if I can help it. What are the best tools for this that are actually easy for someone who isnt good with computers...
> I tried looking at one called CamelCamelCamel or something like that but it looked really confusing Honestly, those charts are a lot to take in at first, but you definitely dont need an account to just look at the history. I use these tools daily for my coffee gear, but you gotta be careful because some sites miss the lightning deals or hidden shipping fees. I would suggest looking at Keepa instead, tho it looks even more intimidating. It gives way more technical data which I prefer.
I spent weeks chasing a deal on my setup and almost got burned by a fake discount! Seriously, those price spikes are just to make the regular price look like a steal later. I finally just used this site to see the truth. Its a total lifesaver for people like us who hate accounts! No signups, just the cold hard facts about what that Bambino should actually cost.
