In May Pinterest added a great feature for online shoppers that allowed brands to post product prices in their pins. Since product pins update automatically, shoppers could always be sure to find accurate information on Pinterest.

When the price drops on an item you’ve pinned Pinterest will email you to let you know how much the price has decreased. If multiple items go on sale, Pinterest will send you one, single email that groups the notifications.
