As pointed out by Thurrott.com, Microsoft Edge is on a bit of a deal-finding kick. The browser recently gained support for Honey on mobile, and now has a dedicated shopping feature on mobile devices.
Microsoft's browser brings 'Continue on PC,' synced passwords and a familiar look for regular Edge users.
