# Amazon Price Alerter
**Tier:** 1-Beginner
This simple yet useful app will check the price of a product on Amazon, check if it is under a given budget and send you an email if that is the case. It is a good entry into web scraping and can be modified to check multiple products or perform more complex comparisons. The program is a simple <100 line Python script.
