I was not able to get it to work properly. On marking content and select 'Monitor' I get a popup when I can set a configuration, but the Save/Cancel buttons don't work.

I like it a lot the only one who let me check in seconds with sounds alarm as i need it in particular moments of the day, enabling/ disabling it .
( i would like actually to set it on fewer seconds checking like 5 seconds but there is still a limit ) .
Big + = is that when i enable it it remembers my previous settings automatically( rules and exception like "Where is not written that" etc ) .

On" special day discounts" i bet people can get the right moment it changes price of an item they look , i need it for a bit else, and it's the only free one that delivers so frequent "checks" with sound alarms , i can answer messages filtered by some words instead than receiving notification for all of them , sorting a particular page in a day and so on , really useful thank you .
Edit
.i get still "flase" alarms who dunno the reason , bt still pretty acceptable it really helps sparing time in sorting out .
