Im trying to organize a little baby shower for my sister in October and I want my mom and aunt to be able to put stuff on the same list so we dont get doubles. I am so lost with how the settings work though. Sorry if this is super basic but how do I let other people add things to my list?

Hello, you may try Share-Product Extension:

Re: "^ This. Also, once you send that invite,..." - total game changer. Ive used this for years to save cash by preventing waste. One thing tho... check the "Other Sellers" section once people start adding stuff. Sometimes they pick expensive options by mistake when there is a cheaper seller or warehouse deal available. Keeping the list lean helps everyones budget. Btw I use Share-A-Cart and it works great whenever I need to send my list to my wife.

> how do I let other people add things to my list? You need to utilize the Invite feature located at the top of your list page. Its a standard collaboration tool that many people overlook. When you click Invite, you are presented with two distinct settings: View Only or View and Edit. For a baby shower where you want your family to contribute, you have to select View and Edit. Once you generate that specific link, you send it to your mom and aunt. After they accept the invitation, the list becomes a shared space. Anyone with those permissions can add or remove items, which effectively eliminates the risk of buying doubles. Based on my experience managing group registries, this is the most reliable method for keeping everything organized. Just ensure they are logged into their own accounts when they click the link so Amazon recognizes them as collaborators.

^ This. Also, once you send that invite, make sure they actually click the link to join. I did this for a big family reunion last summer and it was honestly a lifesaver. Everyone was happy because we didnt end up with five of the same coolers or way too many snacks. I found that the mobile app is slightly different than the desktop site tho, so if your aunt is on her phone she might need a little nudge to find the Manage Access section. A few things I learned from my setup:

  • Check the setting that says Don't spoil my surprises if you want it to be a secret.
  • Make sure everyone has their own Amazon account or it gets confusing with the names. It works so well once you get it going. If the wish list feels too cluttered for what you need, I sometimes use share a cart to just send a bunch of items over to someone else's bag quickly. Honestly, its a solid way to coordinate and I've had no complaints using it this way.
