Mpire lets you track prices from various retailers across the web and with the new Firefox plugin you can now call up that data from any supported retailer page. The plugin essentially put the MPire site data just a click away from nearly any shopping site. The MPire plugin includes some nice features for comparison shopping. Similar to [Farecast][4], my favorite airline ticket site, there are predictive graphs indicating whether the price of an item is likely to go up or down based past sales. Mpire can also point you to online coupons and other discounts as well as track Ebay auctions. I'm very impressed with the new plugin. I've used the Mpire site a few times in past, but frankly I forget about it. With the plugin makes it's easier to take advantage of what Mpire offers without having to visit the actual site. Right now the Plugin is only available for Firefox, but hopefully we'll see something similar for Internet Explorer in the near future.
