IFTTT (https://ifttt.com/wtf) is great for that kind of grunt tasks.

Create a recipes with a trigger (new Craigslist listings between $800 and $1000 has been posted), link an action (send an email, add the listing to a google doc, etc...) to the trigger, and in a matter of minutes you'll get a google doc filled with rooms to visit!

Hmm ive got to try this id guess that CL would block their ip but if not then this is a great idea
I'll venture to guess they're running off of AWS. CL blocks ec2 us-east ip's. So it probably wouldn't work.
It actually works very well.
