Paul Ahern (ID: 0000009963651170) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/10/2013 This is a great extension, works pretty well. Only small gripe is that it seems to interfere with the default behaviour of the text input box where you input the search text - normally when you click on this box the website automatically clears it so you can input text to search, but with the extension enabled you have to manually delete the text that is there which says "Search by word or catalogue number". A great extension nonetheless! Would be even better if you could setup an email alert when a product is back in stock in one of the stores near you... maybe that will come in the next version.
