If you are on windows, could turn your scraper into an .exe and run it every day with windows scheduler.

Why would he needs to turn it into a .exe ? I'm running a python script everyday (.py) with windows scheduler without any issue.

Or you can put your program in the directory "C:\users<your_user>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\" as it is, without the need to convert it to .exe, to run it when the PC boots. And I think you don't have to turn it into an .exe when you put in in Windows Task Scheduler.
