I finally saw a price drop on that air fryer I was watching for 3 weeks

So I had this Ninja air fryer saved in my cart on Amazon for about 3 weeks now. It was sitting at $89.99 the whole time and I was just waiting for a sale or something. Yesterday morning I checked and it was down to $69.99, which is like a 22% drop. I think it was part of some flash sale they did for Prime members. I grabbed it right away and it showed up today. The thing is huge compared to my old one and it actually cooks stuff crispy in like 10 minutes. Has anyone else noticed random price drops on stuff you were eyeing for a while? Like is there a pattern to when these happen?

Take that cart trick further by adding a bunch of random cheaper stuff too. The algorithm treats you like a buyer not a browser when your cart has volume. I keep like 20 items in there and just watch the prices dance around.

Air fryer prices usually dip on Tuesday mornings around 2am Eastern time from what I noticed tracking stuff for years. Amazon does these random flash sales that only last like 4 to 6 hours and they hide them from the main sale pages. The real trick is putting items in your cart and just watching, the algorithm sees you're interested and sometimes drops the price to hook you. I scored a $120 blender for $65 the same way last month, just sat on it for two weeks. The key is not to buy the second you see the drop, wait an extra day sometimes they drop it again if you leave it sitting.
