• Which Cheesecake Factory Cakes have Gelatin (Kosher, Halal, Vegetarian, Vegan cakes)

    I couldn’t find any recent blog posts about which Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes and cakes have gelatin, so I reached out directly to Cheesecake Factory to learn more.

    Update: Here is the list of the most up to date Cheesecake Factory Cheesecakes that contain gelatin for Kosher, Halal, and Vegetarian readers. 

    Here is the response I received (which should help you determine which cheesecakes are “kosher” (don’t have animal gelatin):

    Although our menu items, and desserts, are not certified Kosher, not all of our cheesecakes contain gelatin. A small number of them do contain Halal beef gelatin. As with most high end pastries and desserts, when needed, we use gelatin over a host of gums and artificial additives.

    Below I have included a list of our cheesecakes varieties that DO NOT contain animal gelatin for your convenience. Following that, I have provided the cakes that do contain Halal beef gelatin. They are all delicious, and I hope you will find a flavor to enjoy!

  • Keepa for Walmart

    I was recently looking to buy snow chains and wanted to compare Amazon and Walmart. I saw they were fiercely fighting day in day out often price matching each other. I wanted to find a Walmart price tracker that works similar to how Keepa does for Amazon. While Keepa works well for tracking Amazon prices, Keepa is only for Amazon, and doesn’t work on other marketplaces. I saw there is functionality to also get eBay listings from Amazon, but haven’t had the best of luck with it. If you’re shopping on Walmart and hoping for the same kind of price tracking magic, Keepa can’t help you.

    I tried looking for a Walmart price tracker, and couldn’t find something that had the same capabilities as Keepa for Amazon. That’s where PriceLasso comes in. It’s like the Walmart-specific version of Keepa, and it’s a game-changer for smart shoppers. With PriceLasso, you can track the prices of Walmart products, so you’ll know if you’re actually getting a good deal or just falling for clever marketing. Even better, it lets you set up alerts for price drops, so you’ll never miss a chance to save.

    Walmart’s prices can fluctuate just like Amazon’s, sometimes in lockstep with Amazon prices, and without a tool like PriceLasso, it’s hard to know if you’re buying at the right time. I’ve seen cases where the price on Walmart and Amazon is completely neck and neck, often different by a few pennies, until one drops by a few dollars, and the other will then match again.

    So if you’re already using Keepa for Amazon, add PriceLasso to your toolkit for Walmart.

  • CamelCamelCamel for Walmart

    If you’ve ever used CamelCamelCamel, you know it’s like having a bargain-hunting sidekick for Amazon. It tracks price history, sends you price-drop alerts, and makes sure you never pay full price when you don’t have to. But here’s the thing, if you’re hoping to bring CamelCamelCamel’s price-monitoring magic to Walmart, you’re out of luck. CamelCamelCamel is strictly an Amazon-only deal.

    Bummer, right? Especially since Walmart often has some killer deals, too.

    But don’t worry, there’s a fix for that! Meet PriceLasso, it’s basically the Walmart version of CamelCamelCamel. PriceLasso gives you price history on Walmart items, so you can see if today’s “deal” is actually a steal or just clever marketing. It also sends you alerts when prices drop, so you can pounce on a sale before it’s gone.

    Here’s why this is awesome: Walmart’s pricing can fluctuate just as much as Amazon’s. Knowing when to hit Add to Cart can save you a chunk of change. Plus, with PriceLasso, you’re not just guessing—you’re shopping smart.

    So, while CamelCamelCamel remains king of Amazon deals, don’t overlook PriceLasso when you’re shopping at Walmart. Between the two, your wallet will be breathing a sigh of relief.

    Happy deal-hunting!

  • Price tracking dental supplies

    If you’re trying to keep a dental office stocked, there are lots of different materials and supplies you need.

    Many are from specialized labs and vendors like composites and loopes, dental dams and such.

    But many dental supplies are also commodities sold at stores like Walmart, Costco, and Amazon. This includes printer ink, printer paper, gloves, masks, and cotton rolls.

    According to Joyful Teeth, you can save up to 30-50% on printer ink alone by price tracking stores like Office Depot.

    I’ve seen another 10-20% savings by stocking up at the right time.

    It’s especially interesting to see the price of different types of crowns, with PFM crowns typically the cheapest.

  • How to Track Office Depot Prices

    How do you know if there’s a sale on printer ink or printer paper without having to check Office Depot’s website or the weekly ads?

    PriceLasso has a free Office Depot price tracker letting you get email alerts as soon as the price drops on any product.

    I recently snagged a great deal on a new office chair from Office Depot that was 30% off the original price within days of adding a price alert. Just goes to show that waiting can pay off, so long as you are tracking office depot prices. Price history seals the deal by showing you a nice chart of the price over time.

    I often go back and forth between checking Office Depot, Amazon, and Staples for office products, and PriceLasso lets you track Staples prices too. That way I can have the price alerts side by side and not miss a sale on Office Depot vs Staples, which often are neck and neck in prices.

  • The Best Amazon Price Tracker

    I recently checked all the different Amazon Price Trackers out there, including CamelCamelCamel, Keepa, and Honey.

    While some of them are decent at Amazon price alerts + history charts, for me they didn’t check Amazon prices frequently enough and can’t compare an identical product across multiple online stores to find the cheapest price.

    It’s was also very manual to add price alerts one by one. PriceLasso is an Amazon Price Tracker that automated the creation of alerts and also has Amazon price history charts. For me, PriceLasso created about 100 alerts automatically on stuff I regularly buy. There were some Amazon alerts created for products I no longer buy, but it was very easy to remove them with one click.

    One of my favorite features with PriceLasso is the ability to track the final price with coupon codes on Amazon (and see the coupon price reflected in price history), which CamelCamelCamel and Keepa could not do. Their price history charts reflect the un-couponed price, which is becoming more an issue when 3rd party merchants raise the price and just add a coupon to get it to the same price. Otherwise it seems like the Amazon price actually went up, but it’s not a very accurate picture.

  • The Best Walmart Price Tracker

    It used to be that Amazon always had the best prices, but these days Walmart often competes with Amazon and you see them price matching on many items. Sometimes Walmart can be significantly cheaper!

    PriceLasso has the best free Walmart Price Tracker I’ve seen, since apps like CamelCamelCamel and Keepa support Amazon, but not Walmart.

    When I was buying snow chains for my car for an upcoming trip, I checked the exact model number on both Walmart and Amazon, and on the first day Amazon was $15 cheaper. The second day, Walmart was 1 cent cheaper, and the 3rd day Walmart was $10 cheaper because Amazon had increased the price. This just goes to show the importance of comparing prices and tracking them across both Walmart and Amazon.

    You can also see price history from tracking Walmart with nice charts showing the price on the y-axis, and date on the x-axis, which is super helpful. By checking the chart, you know if it’s a small Walmart sale, or a larger one.
