If you click on the icon while you’re perusing through a product page, a graph of its price history will pop up. This will allow online shoppers to ascertain whether the price of the item is higher or lower than average. If it’s too high, it would be in the shopper’s best interest to wait until the price drops down again. However, if the price is lower than usual, it’d behoove the shopper to strike while the iron is still hot. As a cherry on top, the new Edge also offers Bing Rebates, which lets users earn cashback when they use Bing for their online shopping purchases. Microsoft says that shoppers can use Bing Rebates with more than 1,100 stores, including some of our favorite laptop brands: Dell (opens in new tab) and Lenovo.
