Show HN: Lasso. A Chrome extension for saving money at the grocery store (throwlasso.com)

2 points by mcoliver ↗ HN
Hey HN. Built this for my Mom as a toy but decided to muster up the courage to put it out there publicly to see what the world thinks.

It is basic browser automation but with a focus on a particular niche; digital coupon stores you can load onto your phone number for use at checkout.

Hope it is useful. Please share any and all feedback. I have a few ideas on monetization but it is currently donation only. Also have an advanced evolution of the product that I have built but not ready to release yet. Submitted to /r/Entrepreneur as well but wanted to get feedback from my fellow hackers.

I tested it for fun, if you sign up for Ralphs, it sorta works till you hit the 200 coupon limit and then it goes a little wonky. Give it a try and I think you will see the bugs.
Thanks!

Yeah the Kroger companies have a 150 limit. So do some others like Target. Need to add some logic around that. Right now it clips the top 150 based on the default selection which is recommended by the store based on previous purchases.

Need to implement capping at 150 so it doesn't hang the browser and change the ux so you can select categories to clip.
