We'd rather show you than tell you
WantThis is a young UK product still in open beta. This is normally where a site puts a wall of five-star quotes — we don't have enough real ones yet, and we're not going to invent them. Here are three things you can check for yourself instead. No account needed for any of them.
Look at real lists
Public lists and checklists built by actual users. See how the product behaves before you commit an email address to it.

How the price tracking actually works
No vague “save up to” percentages. Here is precisely what happens to an item once it's on one of your lists.
We re-check the price on a schedule
How often depends on how the price actually behaves: an item whose price keeps moving is checked every 12 hours, a quiet one every few days, and anything on a list with an event in the next month at least daily. Products lots of people are watching get watched harder too.
Every change is written to a history
Each check stores the price and the one before it. That becomes the chart on the item — so you can see whether today’s "deal" is actually below its normal price.
You get told when it drops
A drop of 5% or more triggers an email and an in-app alert by default. You can tighten or loosen that threshold per item, or set your own target price.
Across 30+ UK retailers
Amazon UK, John Lewis, Argos, Currys, Boots and more, plus a generic importer for any other product URL you paste in.
What we're not going to tell you
We haven't published an “average saving” figure, because we haven't been running long enough to have one we could stand behind. What you save depends entirely on what you track and how long you track it for. When we have a number backed by real data, we'll publish it here along with how we calculated it.
The best day to start tracking was last month
Price history starts the day you add an item — we can't go back and fill in what a product cost before you were watching it. Add the things you want now, and by the time you need to buy them you'll know whether the price in front of you is actually a good one.
Every day you wait is a day of price history we can’t backfill.
