Got your eye on a new premium 32-inch Samsung television? Well, you better not purchase it in December—that’s when the price was highest on Amazon.com ($500 versus $400 in November or February). Most consumers know that prices fluctuate throughout the year, but did you know they even fluctuate hourly? You probably can’t keep up with that, but there’s an app that can. Camelcamelcamel is a tool that tracks Amazon’s prices for consumers and sends alerts when a price hits thesweet spot. This app allows users to import entire Amazon wish lists and to set desired price levels at which emails or tweets are sent to inform them of the prices. All of this is free. Camel makes its money from an unlikely partner—Amazon—which funnels price data directly to Camel.

Indeed, only select young women belonging to certain sororities in certain communities are allowed discounts on the $100 to $500 items. But Target created a buying frenzy by debuting its Lilly for Target collection in April 2015. Target’s Pulitzer line was composed of 250 items, such as Lilly dresses at $40, which sold out within minutes of launch, crashed the store’s Web site, and created a firestorm of negative online comments from customers. The long lines outside stores caused one manager to name the event “Preppy Black Friday,” likening it to the frenzied shopping day after Thanksgiving known as Black Friday. Most shoppers went home empty-handed because others scooped up as much as they could, emptying the racks within minutes. Items then sold on eBay for much higher prices. This type of launch is not new for Target. In 2011, the retailer launched a…
