Oregon Liquor Prices (monthly pricing suggestions) #1

So I've been using www.oregonliquorprices.com, and I thought of a cool new feature after a recent liquor purchase.

The other day, I went and got myself some bourbon: http://www.oregonliquorprices.com/products/8189h/

I paid $43.95, the October price, and afterwards, I wanted to come on here and check to see which months it might possibly go on sale, only to see it's already going to go up in price next month, and likely for the next three, which gave me a new feature idea.

In addition to showcasing liquors currently on sale, what if there were a way to show liquors that were set to change in price the next month, once the next month's prices were available. For something like this bourbon, it might include a suggestion to buy now before the price increase at the end of the month. For other liquors going to go down in price, the website could suggest holding off until the next month.

It's just an idea, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to suggest it. Thanks for your work, and have a gone one!

Thanks for the suggestion! I haven't had much time to devote to the project lately, but I've got some cool ideas in store for the future.
