G'day OzBargainers, I am planning a long trip to Europe next year and have a bunch of items I need to buy in the next 12 months.

Does anyone know of a site that I can basically put a heap of items I want to buy into and have it ping me should one of them go on sale or get a code?

I figured that the brains trust here is the best place to ask.

Cheers

  There's this great site where deals are posted. Some may say it is Australia's foremost bargains sharing community.

  Can't remember exactly what it's called, something like AussieBargains or JV's Bargain Emporium?

    Yes I believe I have heard of it. I am more looking for something more automated. I do check OzB at least 100 times a day but I don't want to miss say a good deal on a travel backpack.

      You can subscribe to products or product categories and get notified.

      So for example backpacks. Hit the subscribe button and OzBargain will notify you. There are currently 47 people subscribed to backpack deals.

      Also Deal Alerts

        But how do I subscribe to a particular product??

        After learning about this real jewel I am trying to find out how to actually subscribe for a particular product?

        What obvious step am I missing?

        Thank you.

          @LFO: Type the product you want in search, click on the product, then hit subscribe.

          e.g. Sony WH-1000XM4. 450 people subscribed.

          Deals also have the product tagged so you can subscribe by clicking through there as well.

            @neil: Thank you!!

            I know what to do now :-)

            But my not_that_popular_product (food supplement) has not been listed before.
            Will keep looking.
            Great to know about subscriptions.

              If it's not listed as a product, you can create a search alert.

  I saw Google shopping has the ability to add an item to your watch list, but I'm not sure if it notifies you of price drops.

  Anyone have any experience with it?

    US and India only for now unfortunately.

    That would be sweet, Google Shopping would be the GOAT if they did that here.
