I got a great email recently from a Price Protectr user;

Thanks so much for creating this site. Just saved $90.00 on a TV and iPod Touch that I bought at Christmas. Awesome. Please be sure to let people know that Amazon's price protection policy extends from the time the item is SHIPPED and not from when you ordered it - so you get more than 30 days price protection. Even better. Thanks again.

So there ya go -- a happy user and a great tip for all you Amazon customers out there.

Thanks, Josh!

It's been a while since we last posted some fan mail. Here's one we got earlier this week:

Your service ROCKS!

A friend told me about your website a while back and I do a lot of online shopping, so I decided to give it a whirl. Since signing up since this past June I have saved close to $150.00! I'm still trying to figure out if there's a catch, but as long as I'm saving money (and we're talking REAL money), I'm all for it! Thanks for providing such an awesome service!

-Dawn from Puyallup, WA

Thanks Dawn! There is no catch :-) We're just happy to help save you money. Thanks for using Price Protectr and keep passing us on to your friends -- we'll save them money too!

Do things seem faster around here today? I've been working on optimizing the site to load faster and make the Price Protectr experience even better.

I've had a lot of great feedback from people about the My Stuff feature. Keep it coming! And people keep saving lots of money. Can you believe the total was only $10,000 less than a month ago? Here's another real email from a real Price Protectr user:

I saved $80, thanks!

I found you guys through LifeHacker, and I'm glad I did. I recently bought a $280 printer through Amazon in order to take advantage of a promo HP had going on ($75 cash back). Well, now the printer dropped $80 - almost 33%! I got an email to let me know, did a request through Amazon, and boom, I've got $80 back in my pocket!

Now that $280 printer is only costing me $125!

I've gotten a lot of notes from people lately telling me how much they've been saving with Price Protectr. Here's a real email from a happy user:

Awesome Site, Thanks a 150 bucks worth!

Just wanted to let you know what I think of your service... its awesome, I saved an additional $150 on a laptop that I already thought was an awesome deal. it ended up being more than 10% back I wasnt expecting. Seriously keep up the great work, this is the coolest thing i've found on line since digg.

thanks again,

The laptop dropped in price just 5 days after Jordan added the item for price protection, and he headed back to Best Buy to pick up his refund. That's pretty sweet! Congratz to Jordan and everyone else who's picked up a nice big price drop over the past couple weeks. Keep protecting all the cool stuff you're buying, and don't forget to tell your friends about Price Protectr!
