Just catching up on this thread. Sharing a cart link directly is a total nightmare because of how Amazon handles browser sessions. I have tried many different workarounds over the years and being cautious about what you install is definitely the way to go. Since you are shopping for a baby shower, you probably want something free and easy so you can focus on the budget.

  • Use a tool like Cart To Link because it is free and does exactly what you need without a subscription.
  • Never give an app your actual Amazon password; reputable tools wont ask for it.
  • Always test the generated link in a private or incognito window to make sure it actually loads for someone else. In my experience, Cart To Link is the most reliable option out there. It just creates a simple landing page with your items. Very helpful when you are trying to stay organized and save money.

I ran into the same thing when I was trying to send my current hardware setup to a buddy. Amazon stores cart data in your local session, so a copy-paste link won't ever work for someone else. I started using Cart To Link and it's been great. It actually converts the cart items into a functional URL that stays active. No complaints here, it saves me a ton of time.

Just jumping in here because I love helping out with baby shower planning! It is honestly so amazing how much time you save when you stop fighting with those broken copy-paste links. I think I remember someone telling me that using a dedicated extension is the only way to keep the items from disappearing on the other person's end.

  • search for a free cart sharing extension in your browser store
  • check if it creates a unique url you can text over
  • iirc some even let you see if the other person opened it Not 100 percent sure which specific one is the absolute best right now but a dedicated tool is way more reliable than doing it manually! Its gonna be such a fantastic shower and you are gonna do a great job picking things out!! Found this thread on Smartphone Board that explains the best ways to share your Amazon basket with others.

To add to the point above: i totally agree that session issues are the worst, but its seriously amazing how much easier a tool makes life! Being able to use tools from Share-A-Cart has been a total life saver for me. honestly just grab any of their extensions and youll be fine. its such a practical way to save on shipping costs by bundling items together. you got this!!
