Pricescout Price Comparison Extension

Automatic Price Comparison & Coupon Notifications!

Pricescout automatically checks for lower prices and money-saving coupons while you shop, otherwise it stays hidden.
Once you've installed the free Pricescout browser extension on your browser (Chrome, Firefox or Safari), you just shop as you would normally, and Pricescout will help you save money through two primary features:

✔ Automatic Price Comparison:
When you are viewing a product in your web browser, Pricescout automatically scans over 21,000 stores for lower prices and will let you know who has the lowest price on the item you're viewing. It's that easy. You don't have to click anything and you no longer need to open a new tab and go to a price comparison site.

✔ Coupon Notifications
Are you tired of having to search Google every time you're looking for a coupon? Pricescout's automatic coupon notifications will alert you to money-saving coupons without having to leave the site you're shopping. All of Pricescout's coupons are reviewed by our editors which means you'll spend less time typing in expired codes and get the savings you want.

✔ Stays Hidden When You're Not Shopping
Unlike toolbars that take up valuable screen space when you're not using them, Pricescout is smart enough to know when you're shopping and will only discreetly appear when it's found coupons for the store you're viewing or price comparisons on the item you're viewing.

Think of the free Pricescout browser add-on as your personal shopping assistant that finds the lowest prices when you shop online. Shop with confidence knowing that you have found the best deal possible.

…………………………

How does it work?

Once you visit an online shop or a product-related web page, Pricescout gets active and analyzes the content of this page in the background, in order to read all relevant attributes of the offered product. If Pricescout finds better price or coupons it simply shows a light note right in your web browser.

Depending on the availability of alternative offers and more information about a product may the duration of the search query vary. (between a few milliseconds to a few seconds).

Majid Erfantalab (ID: 0000003d4fae39f9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/22/2021 This extention is using 100 percent of my CPU especially when I go to google.com and search for something. I'm almost sure that it's using user's computer for mining.

icon

Bryan “Bevans” Evans (ID: 000000658be4937c) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 04/16/2020 I don't know how well it works, but when I installed it, it showed a bar called "Ciuve" or something like that. I don't know if that's just an old name for the extension, or if there's some bait-and-switch going on with something that harvests all your data. Unfortunately I've seen the latter happen way too often with other Chrome extensions, so I'm uninstalling it.

Tamás Pál (ID: 000000abfe13fb64) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/04/2019 Actually installs Ciuvo nowadays, which is considered a PUP

icon

Joe “めっちゃ抹茶” Jellema (ID: 000000df36db271a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/02/2019 Constantly shows me the next best thing, not the exact product I'm looking for. Sometimes, the next best thing isn't even close to what I'm looking for. UI is very bulky and not very customisable. I would very much have preferred to be able to search through the extension rather than passive price-comparisons of unrelated products. Wouldn't recommend.

Dave Price (ID: 00000088e90232f4) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/06/2019 useless, all it did was try to sell me another item, nothing i was looking at. wish i looked here first, seems it is just broken.
