Black Friday offers all sorts of bargains, from laptops and desktops deals to accessories, office supplies, and many other gadgets, but it doesn’t mean you’ll score a good deal on every purchase. Amazon is one of those online retailers whose prices are constantly fluctuating, making it hard to understand if you are grabbing a worthy buy, and this is where Keepa comes in handy.
Keepa is a freemium service that tracks the prices of Amazon products. The service offers a mobile app, but the best way to use it is with the extension available onMicrosoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and others, as it embeds the price history details on the product page, helping you make a more informed decision.
Furthermore, if you’re unsure about a deal, you can save the item on your list to track its price and receive an alert immediately after the product drops to your desired amount.
In thishow-to guide, I will walk you through the steps to track prices during Black Friday 2023.

How to check price history on Amazon with Keepa
To check the price history for Amazon products, use these steps:
The"Price history"tab includes a graph with the price history of the product from Amazon and third-party retailers. In this graph, you want to pay attention to the"light purple"details since it shows the price history of Amazon and third-party sellers.
Furthermore, the extension offers other pricing data, such as from third-party sellers with fulfillment by the merchant with different conditions and more.
On the bottom-right, you’ll also find the settings to change the price range, and depending on the product, you can choose the"day," “week,” “three months,“and"all"options.
After reviewing the data, it’ll be possible to determine whether the discount represents a deal since the previous price dropped or if Amazon is comparing the deal with the original price, which may not be a good deal if the same product had a similar price days before the Black Friday event.
