# cvs scraper

lets you know when people buy things

this script alerts the user when items of a certain type are sold from any CVS near a location.

right now it's broken because it needs to interpret javascript, which previously it did not

It takes 3 input parameters,
item: any item description, this will be sent to CVS' product search and will it will scrape product IDs from the results
location: the script will check for inventory near this location. any location you could put in google maps should work
item count: how many product IDs to get

limitations:

cannot alert user for any item sold in a region, can only check by search keyword or specific item (using skuid as argument)
precision of time sold is traded off with number of items scanned
iterates through items checking their availability in store, lets you know when inventory amount changes
