Track any product's price with Google price-drop alerts
Google Search can track a product's price across stores and alert you when it drops. AI can help you decide your target price.
1. Copy this prompt
Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Grok (the free versions work), then replace the [highlighted brackets] with your details. Leave out account numbers and SSNs.
I want to buy [EXACT PRODUCT AND MODEL]. Current price: $[PRICE]. Recent price history I can see: [PASTE OR DESCRIBE]. I need it by [DATE / no rush]. 1) Suggest a realistic target price and explain why. 2) Tell me whether to wait or buy now. 3) List what to check before buying from an unfamiliar seller (returns, warranty, authorized dealer).
