Before I start, I want to say that in no way do I made any money from this bot through affiliate links or any other sources. This has simply been a fun project that I'm proud of and wanted to share. Mods, if this post breaks any rules please feel free to delete it.
So long story short, I've been learning computer programming and a while back I wrote a script that would monitor prices of things I want on Amazon and alert me when the price dropped. For fun, I turned it into a Twitter bot meaning it is open for anyone to use.
The bot is @DealingOutDeals. To use the bot, Tweet it a link to the item you want and the price you want to pay. Here's an example. There's also a cheesy little website with directions on the bot's profile if you want to see what else it can do (I'll hopefully be adding more "features" later).
It's saved me a couple bucks and hopefully it can do the same for others.
