Just made this for fun, you set your hourly wage and then it looks for prices on your current page and then converts that to the amount of your life that value represents. You can also customize the message as well as the colors of the text/bg/border.

Everything runs locally, none of your data is transmitted anywhere, MIT licensed.

Just submitted to the chrome store for approval, but you can install it from the repo in the meantime.
