Abstract: Mobile apps have evolved to be more useful for regular use in recent years. The goal of this
project is to give users an easy way to compare product availability and costs on various e-commerce
websites. Users can easily compare prices from numerous sources by simplyentering the product information
into the programme. To compare the product information found on several websites side by side, the
application's databases are then searched. In order to ensure that they never miss out on a great offer,
customers can also receive push notificationswhen things become available or go on sale.

Keywords: Price Comparison Website

I. INTRODUCTION
The growth of e-commerce has contributed to an increase in the use of price comparison websites, which provide
customers with information and metrics to compare prices across various online retail outlets. These websites assist
users in making wise purchase decisions, saving them time and money. It might be cumbersome and time- consuming
to manually check the pricing of the same product across many internet retailers when comparing costs. There are many
websites that compare prices, but none of them compare prices for things that are on wish lists. We created a project
called the Wish List Products Price Comparison Website to counteract this, which only evaluates the prices of goods
the user intends to acquire. Customers can contrast this website's prices with those on other

II. LITERATURE SURVEY

"Price comparison websites have grown in significance in the current industry, boosting provider efficiency and
competition while assisting consumers. Consumers formerly had few options for doing product and service research, so
they had to rely on print media like books, periodicals, and newspapers. However, the introduction of the internet has
made it simpler for consumers to conduct product and service research online. Price comparison websites are a type of
search technology that helps customers find products and services, assess alternative possibilities, and save money on
search costs. Modern price comparison websites offer cutting-edge functions including cost calculation, internet
crawling,and better user control. Costs, items, and other crucial data from third parties are gathered and combined.

III. PROPOSED SYSTEM

A computerised system is being suggested because the current system has discovered abnormalities. Only one entity,
the user, will have access to the suggested system. A wishlist product price comparison site is the system that compares
the costs of the things that consumers are attempting to buy. The system's sophisticated capabilities enable price
comparison between a variety of e- commerce websites and notify users when the cost of a specific item on their wish

list changes. The ability to compare costs from multiple online stores in one place makes this website very handy for
people who frequently shop online.
The programme will provide product prices from different merchants, allowing the user to determine the most
reasonable price for the thing.

Limitations
 For the application to produce precise results, accurate data entry isnecessary.
 This application requires an internet connection in order to function properly.
 Users must input accurate information to avoid the application acting strangely.

Problem statement and drawback of current scenario

Problems
Users of this website will be able to add items they want to buy to their wish list. The pricing of these products from
numerous e- commerce websites will then be compared by the website and shown in one location forsimple comparison.
The website also features a sophisticated feature that alerts users if the price of a certain item on their wish list changes.
Userswill find it simpler to stay informed about and take advantage of pricing changes as a result.
This technique will be highly useful to frequent online consumers who wish to compare costs from different online
retailers in one location. Additionally, it will spare them the time and effort they would otherwise expend manually
looking for the most affordable costs. This technique assists consumers in finding the most inexpensive pricing for their
products by displaying the product prices from many stores.

Drawbacks
 People typically research pricesonline before making purchases.
 Online stores provide the same goods at different pricing points.
 Prior to now, shoppers had to manually compare costs across several websites.
 The technology sends notifications for price changes and compares prices from multiple e-commercewebsites.
 This technique is useful for frequent internet consumers who wish tocompare costs from numerous businesses
in one location.
 The program presents data to users in an intuitive manner.
 The existing system has concerns with upkeep, accuracy, and usability.
 These problems are addressed by the suggested system. In this situation, be proactive and make plans
properly.

IV. METHODOLOGY
Oral interviews, which can be utilized for both theoretical and practical research goals,are one approach that can be used
to collectdata for study.
For instance, data may be gathered for management studies to conceive operational planning and change management
methods using oral interviews.
To be effectively finished, all projects in the field of information systems must go through the System Development
Life Cycle (SDLC)'s many stages. The Planning, Analysis, Design, and Implementation stages of the SDLC are what go
into creating and delivering the finished system. Software is used to assess and reach pertinent conclusions in order to
build the technique for a project.The SSADM is an illustration of a CDLC model in which analysts and users
systematically complete each step, evaluating it before moving on to the next (Hevner, 2004)

V. IMPLEMENTATION
Following is how the proposed system functions: The backend system makes advantage of the essential web crawling
and scraping techniques. A technique for gathering data from the internet and displaying it on the target terminal is
called web scraping. Web crawlers are responsible for locating the location, though, before scraping the content. The

scraping process starts after they land on the correct page and locate the products. Web scraping essentially involves
loading the needed web page and parsing the HTML code to extract the relevant data. Python is utilized in this system
since it offers a large number of libraries that can handle the scraping tasks.
Rely on "requests" to

VI. CONCLUSION
Our team has finished creating the "Products Price Comparison" system utilizing Python as the programming languages.
Our team had to put in a tremendous amount of work to create this system. We are pleased with the outcome and think
the users will be quite happy with it. We are, however, open to any upcoming adjustments or improvements because, as
with any development effort, there is always potential for improvement. We learned a lot about the development
industry through this initiative, and we hopeto use what we learned in the future.
