Thumbs up Dealert: Love it!

Bought this because it sounded awesome. My girlfriend wanted a new pair of headphones, specifically skullcandy in a green color. I used dealert to search "skullcandy," and a week later it found a 60% off coupon. Got the $34 titans for $13. I know skullcandy aren't the best, but thats what she wanted so whatever. That was so damned cool. Now I have it searching for touchstone and eco-drive, can't wait til it finds something.

Highly recommended program.

Thanks Dan! I am actually the developer of Dealert, so if you have any feedback, issues, or comments, just let me know. Thanks again for the support! =)

This app has already saved me $40 on a Kodak camera. It also "saved" me $100 or more on 4 pairs of tennis shoes I got my daughter for Christmas. Of course if I hadn't had the darn app I wouldn't have purchased any of the tennis shoes. You would think my daughter could get by with the 50 pair she already has.

Still all in all a wonderful app.

The official changelog for the new update of Dealert is as follows...
  • Feature: Feed Manager added. You can now turn on/off and re-order your feeds.
  • New Sites: Woot.com, Dealcatcher.com, and Techbargains.com.
  • Enhancement: Background product checking uses a lot less memory and power consumption.
  • Feature: When minimized, Dealert will notify you when it is done refreshing all feeds.
  • Bug: Fixed a few memory leaks.

This update has been submitted and is in review.

Thumbs up

I also bought the app yesterday, and find it to be most addictive!

My wife has already told me twice that I need to delete it. She thinks I am going to become "her mother at garage sales", all over again. I don't know WHY she would say that, I don't look a Thing like her mother!!

Special thanks and acknowledgement to Kevin; great job, super response time on my questions, and for more of the same!!

(if I'm this excited about Dealert now, wait 'til I buy something as a result of it's search)

Thanks everyone, feedback like this keeps my motivation high to continue to enhance the app and develop new ones

And don't forget to leave a review in the App Catalog. Dealert has had over 1,000 downloads, and only 40 reviews... =(

I am also working on the next update. Nothing to share right now, but keep an eye on this thread for more info!

Kev, are you guys planning on making anything for Black Friday deals? iPhone has the app for it and it would greatly help out a lot of us midnight shoppers!

Thanks

What would you like in a Black Friday edition? I am definitely open to developing one (or updating the current app for Black Friday).

Not really sure what the program looks like but if you do a search you can check it out. Possibly a youtube video also
Black-Friday 2009 Deals iPhone App Tweaked: New Features

Here is a link

My friend has it on his iPhone and says its going to be helpful

Basically if you could get a feed from any of the numerous blackfriday deal websites, that would be good

For the next update, I'll try and include Black friday feeds from various sources. Thanks for the suggestion, Dan.
