PORTLAND, Ore. -- Shoppers who cringe over paying retail can now get help from a new website. It’s called Deal Alerter. From electronics, to skis, to baby items, shoppers submit prices and see if they can find a deal.

Search for an item, scan the prices and if you want to pay less, submit the price you want to pay. The website will email you when and if your price is met.

It doesn’t cost anything to sign up and you are under no obligation to buy a product.

The creator of the company says you can use Deal Alerter as a bargaining tool for stores. For some shoppers, it’s not a deal if it’s not a steal.

"You can't ever buy anything for the real price you have to find something on sale or it's not worth it," said Cami Carter.

The website is supposed to save shoppers not only money but also time. Dealalerter.com
