Are you ready to help your family conquer the school year with confidence? Whether you’re a teacher, parent, or new college student, Microsoft Edge is here to help you save the most when you’re back-to-school shopping.

Compare prices effortlessly

One of the keys to successful school shopping is finding the best deals. With Edge's built-in price comparison, you can easily compare prices across multiple retailers and find lower prices on other sites. And with price history, you can see how the price of an item has fluctuated, so you can shop smarter and decide when the right time is to buy.

Take advantage of cashback

Who doesn't love a good discount? When you’re online with Edge, you can earn money back on your purchases from top retailers and grocery stores through Microsoft Cashback.¹ Best of all, nothing needs to be installed; Edge will automatically search for applicable discounts and help you earn cash back when you shop online. It's like having a personal savings assistant at your fingertips.

Have Copilot in the Microsoft Edge sidebar recommend shopping lists

No matter the classes, you might find yourself overwhelmed at what you need to buy. Have no fear: you can use AI-powered tools like Copilot (just select the Copilot logo in the upper right of your browser) to build shopping lists and identify essential items for specific ages, grades, or majors. For example, you can ask, “what does my five-year-old need for their first day of kindergarten?” or, “what should I buy for a high school AP Biology class?” In no time, you’ll get clarity and inspiration for what you’ll add to your list.

Shop smarter as an educator

If you’re an educator, getting your classroom ready can be both exciting and overwhelming. Thankfully, with the help of Edge’s built-in shopping features, you can stock your classroom in a way that empowers your students without exceeding your district-given allowance. One handy back-to-school shopping tip is to utilize Edge's price comparison tool, which allows you to quickly compare prices across different websites without having to switch between tabs. This ensures that you're getting the best deals on everything from markers to bulletin board decorations.

From planning and price comparison to cashback, Edge has the tools you need to make the most of your budget. Try Microsoft Edge today and say goodbye to the stress of hunting for deals during back-to-school season.
