Windows Phone, Microsoft's mobile operating system, comes with a wide range of features that make users' lives better, including applications and capabilities that enable them to find great deals on products very easily. When it comes to saving money, Windows Phone can prove a great companion in many ways. For example, there are applications available for download via the Windows Phone Marketplace.

With them, users will be able to access deals fast and simple, thus maximizing their savings, as Windows Phone user Tammilee Tillison explains in a post on the Windows Phone blog.

Checking if there are any great deals available via applications like Cellfire App or Groupon is a simple task on a handset, that's for sure.

But there's more to it. Since Windows Phone will keep users connected with one another at all times, people can also share these deals with their friends and family.

Not to mention that they can also take advantage of the Windows Phone handset to see what others have shared with them.

Tammilee Tillison explains some of the ways to find great deals on the go with Windows Phone:

Cellfire App- Many stores now allow you to load coupons directly to your store savings cards. This app allows me to update my savings card with coupons and confirm what coupons are already loaded. E-coupons are a fantastic way to save money without having to clip a coupon. I love that I can quickly look at my account and add any coupons while I am at the store.

Groupon – I am hooked on Groupon! I can’t imagine paying full price any more for date nights. This app gives you the chance to see what deals are available in your city or the area you are in. We have used this while traveling to pick up discount dinners and event tickets. This is a great way to save money on date nights and while traveling.

Built-In Social Networking – The People Hub on my Start Screen gives me easy access to my social media accounts. I am able to update our Tammilee Tips Facebook Page while I am at the store and find a great deal. I love that I can quickly check status updates from my phone.

Amazon Hunter App –This app has saved me a lot of money while I have been out shopping. I can easily check and see if the stores price is anywhere near Amazons price. I am happy to wait a few days for a product to be shipped to me when it saves me a ton of money. Of course, these are only some examples of what Windows Phone can offer. There is also support for multiple email accounts, easy management of my calendar, photos, social media fast access to the Internet, and much more.
