Shopping – Price Drop Notifications
Your Pinterest wish lists can now become your shopping lists. Earlier this month, Pinterest made shopping easier by introducing Price Drop Notifications. When you pin a product pin, you can get email notification about price reductions for that product so you don’t miss out on a sale price.

Hi Carolyn,
Awesome indeed ๐
I think lots of moms, dads, and their kids would love this informative post for the amount of research you’ve put into this one for gathering all the various boards, which I know is NOT an easy task!
I wish I had my kids of that age, which would make me interested in hunting for such boards too, but thankfully they are past that stage, though being a mom, I still love to go through such back to school boards. I must check them out as some of them sound so interesting.
Thanks for sharing this with us. Have a nice week ahead ๐
Carolyn Nicander Mohr says
Hi Harleena, Well, that task wasn’t easy but it sure was fun! I’m a big fan of Pinterest so spending time there researching this article was a pure pleasure.
Yes, these Back to School boards are fun even if you don’t have school age kids. The crafts, organization ideas and recipes are fun for all!
Thanks so much for stopping by and for sharing this article, Harleena!

Hey Carolyn,
How are you? Hope you are fine. I haven’t been blogging for about an year now, so it is good to be back ๐ Good to see that this blog is still active ๐
Thanks for the resources! These are not much help to me (as I am in college), but I am currently looking for resources and I haven’t checked Pinterest yet. Right now, I am trying to study world geography – if you know any sites, please do share :D.
Carolyn Nicander Mohr says
Hi Jeevan, So great to see you back here at The Wonder of Tech! Very exciting that you’re back at university studying world geography. You must check out Geoguessr, a free, fun online game that will test your familiarity with the world. https://wonderoftech.com/geoguessr/
