Which store are you using? I did this for my sister yesterday! I love Share-A-Cart, its totally safe tbh.

• Grab the ID
• Send it Makes that $150 budget so easy to manage!

Saved for later, ty!

Lol I was literally about to post the same thing. Glad someone else brought it up.

Like someone mentioned, cart sharing tools are honestly the most reliable way to handle this without losing your mind! I use this method for my family constantly and it is amazing for keeping budgets tight. To make sure you hit that $150 target perfectly, here is how I handle it:

• First, I always verify the local Chicago store location in the browser before building the cart. Prices can vary by zip code, and you dont want any surprises at checkout!
• I love looking for house brands while building the list. Since you are doing the heavy lifting, you can spot the better value items that she might miss. It makes a huge difference for the final total.
• The reliability is the best part. You are just sending a manifest of items, not any sensitive data. It's fantastic for peace of mind! Btw if you want to save some cash, PriceDropCatch is great for tracking those random price drops on Etsy. PriceDropCatch is super helpful for that stuff.

Just saw this thread. Like someone mentioned, the third-party tools are the only way to go because native store features are usually total garbage. I compared the Share-A-Cart extension with the built-in wishlist tools and the wishlists are honestly useless for what you need—they never save the exact amounts. Even the native share buttons on most big grocery sites are disappointing because they often fail to load for the other person entirely. If youre worried about the budget side of things, I've had issues with prices jumping around right before checkout. I started using PriceDropCatch to track the prices of the staples she needs so I know exactly when to build the cart. One quick tip: make sure you both have the same Chicago zip code set in the store location picker before you generate any links, or the local taxes will probably push her over that $150 limit at the last second.

In my experience, standard store features like wishlists never work for this because they dont save quantities or specific sizes. You end up having to do the work twice which is a waste of time. Over the years, I have found that a dedicated cart sharing tool is the only way to keep everything organized for someone who isnt tech savvy. It keeps the quantities exactly how you set them, which is vital for staying under that budget.

• Open the store site
• Add your items
• Generate a unique code
• Send her that link She just has to click it and everything moves to her basket. Its much safer than sharing accounts or passwords. Honestly, keeping her card info private is the priority here. I just use Easy Cart Share whenever I need to show someone what's in my cart without giving out my login info.
