    If you're building a PC, I suggest pcpartpicker.com for comparisons and checking historical prices.

    The really good deals (along comments about caveats that aren't apparent from specs) will usually show up on https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales or https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc

    https://cashnotify.com/

    An OSX menubar app that alerts you when Stripe & Paypal payments come in. I personally use this everyday and it's awesome.

    34% discount with the code BLACK19 making it only $6.46

    My product came out of my own pains of providing end user documentation and tech support, so how can I not recommend it? 50% off BFCM. Here's a post that summarizes my work, at least partially: https://www.helpinator.com/blog/2019/09/18/recommended-readi...

    30% off the first year of yearly plans for Checkbot for Chrome: https://www.checkbot.io/

    It's a Chrome extension that tests 100s of pages at a time for web best practices to help you improve the SEO, speed and security of your site. Has a 4.9/5 average review score.

    I'm the author though so I'm bias. ;)
