Buying the items you need has never been easier with online shopping, but are you using Google Shopping to get the best deal?
Google’s shopping tool can help savvy consumers save more money as well as get to the products they want. The redesigned Google Shopping experience now lets you track prices on items you want to buy.
In this article, we’re going to show you in a few easy steps how to track prices in Google Shopping.
Track Prices With Google Shopping And Save Money
If you’re not aware, Google Shopping is a shopping comparison tool that you can access inside your internet browser or via app. With Google Shopping, you can browse departments, search products and compare across stores.
Among the recent changes to the site is that you now have the option to buy an item three ways:
- You can choose to purchase online
- At a local store that has the product
- Or directly from retailers on Google
While all of that is great, perhaps the most important change to savings-minded shoppers is the new “price track” tool.
How Price Track Works
When you see an item you’re interested in, turn on “price track” and you’ll receive a notification on your phone when the price of that item drops. Let;s walk through the steps:
1. Go to Google Shopping and Search For Your Item
As an example, I searched for a Playstation 4 Pro gaming console and found one for $399.99.
2. In the Right Rail, Find the Track Prices Icon
I think I can get a better price, so I located the Track price button.
3. Toggle It to On to Track Prices
Once I toggled the Track price button to on, a got a screen notification that says: “You’ll get price drop alerts for Sony Playstation 4 Pro.” Here’s a screenshot of what that message looks like:
Google says you’ll have the option to receive those alerts through email, where you’ll be notified of any price changes.
How to Stop Tracking Products
You can stop tracking products either of two ways:
- By returning to the Google Shopping product page and turning the price toggle off.
- Or by going to Google’s My Activity page and deleting your activity history.
Now you’re tracking the product’s price and Google will notify you if it goes on sale. Google will send a daily email with information on price changes over the past 24 hours. You can stop tracking products in Google Shopping by going to Google’s My Activity page and deleting your activity history.
Last Words
Ultimately, tracking prices is a great way to save money for all kinds of items you need. If you want to save on groceries, tracking prices is how you do it.

New Black Wall Street Coming To Atlanta Area
The facility, which will be located in Stonecrest, will feature a food hall, shops, restaurants and entertainment, according to its website.
When Will The New Black Wall Street Open?
The New Black Wall Street initially opened on Saturday, Oct. 30, 2021, The soft opening was in conjunction with a Harvest festival, according to the facility’s Facebook page.
“The New Black Wall Street Market, located in Stonecrest, Georgia, will serve as a destination for family fun, entertainment, retail, gourmet grocery shopping, and fine dining,” the post says.
“The purpose of the market is to cultivate relationships with business owners in the Atlanta area, provide entrepreneurial training to enhance skills, offer a community for small businesses, and assist with the transition of online stores to brick-and-mortar,” officials told WSBTV.
Embedded in the celebration is a homage to the original Black Wall Street, which was destroyed by white rioters in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921.

What Businesses Will Be Included In The New Black Wall Street?
The market will feature:

- retail stores
- jazz club
- gallery space
- grocery store
- event meeting space
- bakery and more.

The three men who filmed and performed the execution-style shooting death of Ahmaud Abrery have been convicted in a Glynn County, Georgia, courtroom.
The defendants — Gregory McMichael, his son Travis McMichael and their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan — were all found guilty of felony murder in the killing of Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man fatally shot while out for a jog on February 23, 2020.
The three white men, who all pleaded not guilty, were facing charges ranging felony murder to criminal attempt to commit false imprisonment.
In closing arguments earlier in the week, prosecutor Linda Dunikoski argued that trio could not claim self-defense because there was no evidence of Arbery committing a crime or being named in one.
Man Involved In Slaying Of Ahmaud Arbery Convicted Of Murder
One week after the slaying, Arbery’s family had been calling for Bryan’s arrest even as he has been doing a lot of press interviews with his lawyer.
In the weeks that followed, many people feared a racial controversy stirred up by outsiders.
Benjamin Crump and S. Lee Merritt, the attorneys for the victim’s family, did their part to publicize the case. They said in a statement that “The family of Ahmaud Arbery was relieved to learn the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has today taken William ‘Roddie’ Bryan into custody.”
“We called for his arrest from the very beginning of this process,” they said. “His involvement in the murder of Mr. Arbery was obvious to us, to many around this country and after their thorough investigation, it was clear to the GBI as well.”
Gregory and Travis McMichael have told authorities that they thought Arbery fit the description of a burglar who had been seen in the area recently.
The victim’s mother, Wanda Cooper Jones, told reporters her son was just jogging like he does every day.
“I saw my son come into the world,” Jones said, according to CBS News. “And seeing him leave the world, it’s not something that I’ll want to see ever.”
“These men were vigilantes, they were a posse and they performed a modern lynching in the middle of the day,” Lee Merritt, an attorney for Arbery’s mother, was quoted as saying.
On the video, you can see Travis McMichael struggle with Arbery for the gun before you hear a gunblast, then another one to the chest.
In the police report, McMichael reportedly says that Arbery “began to violently attack” him, leaving him no choice but to shoot.
As the jurors all agreed, that was simply not true.

We’ve got a fresh perspective on the insight into not bringing the character of T’Challa back to Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever.
MCU VP of Development Nate Moore told Van Lathan Jr. on his podcast that T’Challa won’t be returning. “We couldn’t do it.”
This is big news because while everyone knew that the death of Chadwick Boseman meant that he wouldn’t be returning, some reasoned that T’Challa could be recast. But Moore makes it pretty final in how he explains what the Marvel Cinematic Universe had to think about.
Will T’Challa Be Back For Black Panther 2?
“I would say that the chances that you see T’Challa — you will not see T’Challa in the MCU universe.,” Moore said, adding that the conversation about it with director Ryan Coogler was “minutes” rather than hours or days.
“I think we all feel so much of T’Challa on the screen .. is tied to Chadwick’s performance,” Moore said. “At no point did we consider recasting. So the challenge of Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever is telling the story without T’Challa and I think it’s a challenge we’re up for.”
MCU VP of Development Nate Moore puts to rest any discussion about recasting the character of T’challa as Black Panther. Says he talked with Ryan Coogler about it, and “we just couldn’t do it” more on @RingerVerse. T’challa is gone guys you agree or no? pic.twitter.com/MYoWKyqlmF

Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever is one of Marvel’s most eagerly anticipated movies. Marvel Studios is filming in Atlanta, Georgia. Casting calls have already began as well. The movie’s producers began production in July 2021.
While we have been privy to a few details about the movie,, such as the debut of the Sub-Mariner and plot rewrites, there is still a lot to know! The most recent news is that I May Destroy You star Michaela Coel has joined the movie, according to Variety.
With that being said, here is what we know about Wakanda Forever.
Let’s look into that and more details from what will surely be a blockbuster film from Marvel Studios.
Black Panther 2 Wakanda Forever: Here’s Everything We Know
Black Panther 2 is set to move on without the lead actor for King T’Challa, Chadwick Boseman, who succumbed to cancer in summer 2020. Since then, fans have wondered how the epic African superhero tale will go on.
As for how the film will deal, Marvel is careful to pay tribute where appropriate.
Speaking recently at a fan event in Los Angeles, Marvel exec Kevin Feige says, “It’s clearly very emotional without Chad,” according to Variety. “But everyone is also very excited to bring the world of Wakanda back to the public and back to the fans. We’re going to do it in a way that would make Chad proud.”
The Atlanta-filmed movie broke records when it was released in 2018, becoming the first in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with an African-American lead.
When Will Black Panther 2 Be Released?
Marvel Studios has revealed that Black Panther 2 will be released on July 8, 2022. The film also now has an official name: Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Much has been said about the role of Shuri (Letitia Wright) and how she could become the next Black Panther for continuity’s sake, but Marvel has yet to reveal how it will be handled.
Will Chadwick Boseman Appear In Black Panther Sequel?
Moore confirmed that Boseman won’t appear in the film, but earlier, Marvel had repeated that Boseman’s likeness will not appear in CGI or any form, which is something the cast feels strongly about, including director Ryan Coogler.
Cast member Lupita Nyong’o told Yahoo Entertainment “And his idea, the way which he has reshaped the second movie is so respectful of the loss we’ve all experienced as a cast and as a world. So it feels spiritually and emotionally correct to do this. And hopefully, what I do look forward to, is getting back together and honoring what he started with us and holding his light through it. Because he left us a lot of light that we’re still going to be bathing in. I know that for sure.”
Will Michael B. Jordan Appear In Black Panther 2?
One of the standout performances in the first film was Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger character. Although Killmonger died at the end of the movie, there’s a slight chance he could come back.
Here’s what Jordan told Jess Cagle’s SiriusXM show: ““I’m gonna have to go with a solid 2. I didn’t want to go zero! Never say never. I can’t predict the future.”
Will Namor Be In Black Panther 2?
Reportedly Marvel has reportedly casted Mexican actor Tenoch Huerta to play Namor in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Huerta is most known for his role in Narcos: Mexico.

According to CBR.com, the plot for Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever has leaked. Here’s what they report:
Both Wakanda and Atlantis are hidden civilizations with advanced technology and increased militaristic abilities that decided to separate themselves from the rest of the world for their own safety, and in a way, out of fear. Wakanda feared that their technology would be abused. Atlantis feared that surface dwellers would come and desecrate the mythical city just as they did so many years ago. And yet their fears escalate even further when these two once-hidden nations clash with each other. Wakanda and Atlantis have a shockingly intertwined history. Wakanda is the only county in the world with access to vibranium. However, rumors of its power spread throughout the world, and Namor’s human father was sent searching for this rare material in Antartica…”
