Are there any sites like camelcamelcamel that work for Walmart?

Question

Ive been using camelcamelcamel for my Amazon hauls for years now and its basically a staple in my workflow but Im hitting a wall trying to track prices for a new kitchen suite Im eyeing at Walmart. Trying to get everything before my housewarming in three weeks and their price fluctuations are driving me crazy lately. Ive tried a few extensions but they keep glitching out on the rollback items or just failing to scrape the data properly.

I really need something that can:

track historical pricing data for at least 6 months

send instant price drop alerts to my email

handle third party seller listings on the walmart marketplace

Does anyone know a reliable alternative that actually works for their site specifically? Most of the stuff I find only supports Amazon or Best Buy...

> Most of the stuff I find only supports Amazon or Best Buy... Honestly, Walmarts API is a total nightmare for data integrity. I actually tried building a custom scraper script last year, but their frequent DOM changes broke my selectors within days. Unfortunately, even Capital One Shopping struggles with marketplace data accuracy. I lost out on a soundbar deal because the price history lagged behind by six hours. Its really not as robust as wed like.

I ran into this exact headache when I was trying to score a fridge last year. Walmart is way more volatile than Amazon and their scrapers are buggy. Id suggest trying out the Honey extension, but you gotta be careful with those marketplace sellers. One time I thought I got a steal but it was a refurbished unit. Make sure to toggle the Sold by Walmart filter specifically.
