Price in Work Hours

Annotates every price with its equivalent in work hours, based on your net salary.

Do you know what THAT item costs in time of your life? "$50" is abstract. "A full day of your work" isn't. Every time you're about to buy something online, "Price in Work Hours" shows you, next to the price, how long it takes you to earn it. If you work 160 hours a month and earn $1,000, those $50 shoes cost you a full day of your working life. Are they worth it? ══════════════════ WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU ══════════════════ ✓ HELPS YOU DECIDE BEFORE BUYING. Not after. Not with the receipt in your hand and regret. Before, while it still matters. ✓ TRANSLATES ABSTRACT PRICES INTO REAL TIME OF YOUR LIFE. Money is an abstraction. The time you spent at a desk, behind a counter, or with clients isn't. This extension puts it in front of you. ✓ GIVES YOU PERMISSION TO HESITATE. The extension doesn't judge. It doesn't tell you "don't buy." It just shows how much work time you need to afford it. Then you decide. ✓ SPENDING-CONTROL TOOL, not a guilt machine. If you see "8h" and still want it, perfect. If you decide to think twice, also perfect. The information is yours — rationalize the purchase before making it, not after. ══════════════════ BUILT FOR LATIN AMERICA, WORKS GLOBALLY ══════════════════ ✓ 32 currencies supported: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, MXN, ARS, BRL, CLP, COP, PEN, UYU, BOB, PYG, VES, and all of Latin America's. ✓ Automatically detects local decimal format (1,234.56 vs 1.234,56). ✓ Handles the "$" ambiguity: the same symbol can mean US dollars, Argentine pesos, Mexican pesos, or Uruguayan pesos depending on the site's country. The extension resolves it automatically without per-site setup. ✓ Argentine peso official vs blue rate: in Argentina, choose which exchange rate to use. ══════════════════ 3 ALERT LEVELS, YOUR SCALE ══════════════════ Configure 3 thresholds so annotations are color-coded to YOUR personal scale of "OK", "high", and "expensive": 🟢 Green — small purchases that don't move the needle 🟡 Yellow — worth thinking about 🟠 Orange — significant, decide carefully 🔴 Red — the real cost is high. Stop. And choose the unit for each level: minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years. You know your finances better than anyone. ══════════════════ PRIVACY: REAL, NOT JUST CLAIMED ══════════════════ ✓ Zero data collection. Zero tracking. Zero analytics. Zero accounts. ✓ Your salary never leaves your browser. ✓ The only thing sent is when YOU click "Send to developer" manually to report a problem. And we always show you what's being sent before sending. ✓ No proprietary servers. No backend. 100% free. No locked features. No "Pro". ══════════════════ WHERE IT WORKS ══════════════════ On any e-commerce or SaaS site that displays prices: big and small shops, international and regional marketplaces, online services with monthly or annual plans. Conservative heuristics: doesn't annotate in cart or checkout (we don't want to get between you and a decision you've already made), ignores contextual ranges ("Up to $500"), ignores struck-through promotional prices. Doesn't activate on banking sites, payment gateways, brokers, or crypto exchanges by design. ══════════════════ Privacy policy: https://rentry.co/precio-en-horas-privacy
