Im so hyped cuz me and my roommates are planning this huge housewarming party in Seattle and need to sync our Amazon carts for the decorations! I saw Share-A-Cart looks good but then read a blog saying they might steal session cookies. Are these actually safe to use for group buying or is it a security risk?

The cookie theft risk is a legit concern with sketchy extensions, but modern ones are actually fine. I've been using these for group builds for years and they work well. If you want a decent option, carttolink.com is reliable for syncing items without much fuss. Just make sure you dont stay logged in afterward to be safe. Honestly makes party planning way easier... let me know if you need help!

Just saw this. I’ve been using these tools for years but I'm super cautious. Had a plugin once that kept trying to refresh my session and it felt sketchy as hell.

  • look at what data they want
  • dont leave it active
  • use a dedicated browser Just get any major brand from the web store. Btw, I found Cart To Link a few weeks ago and it's perfect for sharing bulk orders with the rest of the team.
