Save on back-to-school shopping by adding confidence to your cart
It takes a lot to get ready for the school year. Thankfully, Edge is the smart browser up to the task. There are long to-do lists from teachers creating lessons and bulletin boards to parents shopping for lunches, fun outfits, and supplies. Earn high marks by starting the year on a high note, with Microsoft Shopping in Edge. These online shopping tools include price history and price comparison to save you time and money.
Blue Shopping Tag
Located in the Microsoft Edge sidebar, it’s your go-to destination for on-the-spot coupons, price comparison, price history, and more. Here’s what you’ll find when you select the blue Microsoft Shopping tag icon:
- Price comparison. Want to ensure you're getting the best deal? Try the price comparison tool. While the sidebar is open, you can select a specific product on a website and the Coupons and Savings tab will display a list of prices from various online retailers. This way, you can quickly see the most budget-friendly option and maximize your savings.
- Historical price analysis. Is the current price a good deal? Observe historical price analysis that can help you determine if now is the best time to buy.
- Coupons. Who doesn't love a good discount? You can find coupons and discounts effortlessly by checking the Coupons and Savings tab in Microsoft Shopping. It scours the web for available offers, helping to ensure that you can take advantage of potential savings.
- Price drops. If you want to wait for a better deal, Microsoft Shopping in Edge can alert you when the price drops. First, find the product online. If product tracking is available, you’ll see an option to Get alerts on price drops in the Coupons and Savings tab. Toggle that “on” and wait for the deal to come to you.
