Also, this one looks really unappealing.

(Amazon) affiliate things like these seem like nice zero work, long tail side income projects. I want to make one on my own some day.

#5Was working one of these last year -- never launched, but it's pretty much good to go.
If you're in the UK (my target market), give it a go! http://salr.io/

It's less of a price alert but rather notifying you if we can get you the price you want or not.

Why do you need a username and password though? You could simply just provide the product and the price. Then email that user when the price changes. Offer a one time unsubscribe link in that email if they wish to not receive further updates.
Think newsletter with product price changes.
