Overview

Detects the product and price you're viewing and scores the financial pressure of buying it, based on your own numbers.

Should I Buy This? helps you think before you spend. When you're viewing a product online, open the extension to see how much financial pressure the purchase would put on you and whether the purchase makes sense based on why you want it. The extension combines your financial situation with a few simple questions to give the purchase a score from 0–100. What you can do: See the financial impact of a purchase Convert a purchase into hours of work Consider whether you already own something similar Save tempting purchases instead of buying immediately Set a cooldown and come back later Track purchases you bought or decided against Put skipped purchases toward savings goals Learn from your purchasing patterns over time Create shareable purchase score cards Private by default Your financial profile, goals, purchase history and temptations are stored locally in your browser. There is no bank connection, no account required, no AI analysis, and the extension makes no network calls. The extension only analyzes a product when you choose to use it on the page you're viewing. The score is a decision-support tool designed to make you think before buying. It is not financial advice and does not evaluate the quality of the product itself. Think before you buy. Know before you buy.
