Patagonia Automagic™

Read Original

The article details a personal automation project where the author, a fan of Patagonia's Worn Wear program, creates a bash script to monitor the website for specific duffel bag models. The script uses curl and grep to check for item availability and sends an alert via email, which is then forwarded as an SMS. The author explains setting up a cron job to run the script periodically, sharing the technical implementation involving Gmail address namespacing and carrier email-to-SMS gateways.
