As far as Bing Shopping (itself) goes, I had never heard of it (until today). So, it is safe to 'say' that I have NEVER used it. That having been, well..., typed, now that I AM aware (and have looked it up), here is- was- my process:
- At first glance, I see a carousel moving way too fast for me to read;
- Then, 'basic labels' ("browse by top categories") happen to be missing(?) the/ an 'entertainment section'- movie houses, theaters, music, and other art formats; Also (missing?), a pet food/ supply category;
- Next, (I'm guessing "bath & beauty" is the default?) I chose to click every "top category" for an individual 'evaluation,' of sorts.
Here are some 'Food For Thought':
*While I can see where you (Bing Shopping) are going with 'this,' I would like to suggest that perhaps the sub-categories (in this case/ starting with the ones under fashion) become more generalized by with the basics- i.e., men's, women's, children's, pet(s).' Or, better yet, to include age groups under each 'basic' sub-category of men's, women's, children's, pet(s).' *(As a woman who JUST turned 49 (Jan. 26), I find it challenging to know what 'styles' I may (or may not) still be able to 'get away with.' Let alone what is 'trending' for/ in my 'age group'/ range.
NOT that I care for or follow trends or "popular" things/ items; I can nonetheless understand/ see how many people might need this for themselves.)
*The sub-categories under "electronics" and "eco-friendly" seem FLAWLESS, while "home & decor" could use a furniture sub-section and be made more apparent by going room-to-room. *Example(s): kitchen, den, game/ living (room), bedroom, bathroom, patio, garden, shed, garage, etc.
*Under "toys & games," might it be better suited to go by age-range? It is more comfortable to shop/ find for a specific age range than for an individual category/ genre.
*I am curious, though, about the "recommended for you" section. Does that/ will that become more catered to the person as the person uses this system, or will it just be like a 'free for all' guessing game of what the computer 'thinks' the user will/ would like?
*I think the "POPULAR PRODUCTS DEAL(S)" should be closer to the top. "Trending products." Are they essential? What, the deal with the "for you?" As in, after the "recommended (for you)," "trending products (for you)," and the "price drops (for you)?" This 'for you' makes it HARDER to shop FOR OTHERS when designed for selfishness.
*I feel (the) "popular stores" row unnecessary and redundant because they are already KNOWN. After all, it seems to me that only the big conglomerates can afford to have these so-called 'cash-back rebates.'
*"Coupons" are a must! Everyone luvs to feel like they are saving money- even when/ if they aren't.
*You might want to put the "shopping inspiration" more toward the top of the page. Thereby making it easier to find/ see.
*While I was 'flipping' between this page and the Bing Shopping page, whenever I clicked back to 'Bing Shopping,' the page itself jumps straight to the top instead of leaving it where I had left off. Also, I would like to note that the thought of shortening "Bing Shopping" to "B.S" would NOT be a good idea. What if 'it' were to be labeled/ called "Bing's Shopping HUNT?" Or, "Shopping, by Bing?" Even "Shopping with Bing" sounds a GREAT deal better than ANYTHING that remotely could be considered "B.S.." (If you catch my drift!!! 
)
The overall takeaway, this IS most DEFINITELY 'worthwhile!'
