I let Gemini and ChatGPT hunt Black Friday deals; only one saved me money
I asked free ChatGPT and Gemini to find Black Friday deals on four gadgets, then checked every price. One saved me $166 more.
Google has introduced shopping tools for Gemini and ChatGPT, with the latter being highlighted as your personal Black Friday deals companion. To test these tools, the author gave them a list of four gadgets totaling $1,450 to find the best deals. ChatGPT found better prices on three out of four items compared to Gemini, though both tools had their share of errors.
In one case, ChatGPT incorrectly identified a Pixel 10a instead of the Pixel 10, leading to a higher price. The author recommends verifying links, checking seller credibility, and comparing prices before making a purchase. While both AI tools found some inflated discounts, ChatGPT saved the author a larger amount of money on average. For those who prefer, Google's Price History tool can monitor deals throughout Black Friday.
