Node.js Mailer for Ozbargains best deals

ozb-mailer

How it works

• Fetches all of the front page deals from the OzBargain front page
• Evaluates whether a deal has expired, ran out of stock or is still valid
• Constructs a JSON to house all of the deals
• Process the JSON through an algorithm to determine whether a deal is good or not
• If a deal is good, then add to mongoDB and send email(s) to designated email address(es)
