So Im trying to get all the supplies together for this community garden project we're doing here in Seattle next month and I have like 40 items in my Amazon cart right now. Everything from soil testers to specific types of trowels and some weird irrigation parts that I dont want to mess up. My problem is that I need to send the whole list to the treasurer for approval before I can actually buy anything since we have a $600 budget limit and they need to see exactly what Im getting.
I spent some time googling and found stuff like Share-a-Cart but the reviews are kinda all over the place and some people say it doesnt work with the latest Chrome update or it might be buggy with international items? Then I saw some people saying just use the Gift Registry feature but that feels super clunky because I have to move every single item one by one from my cart to the registry and I really dont have time for that honestly. Is there any way to just like... click a button and get a link to everything currently in my basket that I can just text over to her? Or maybe a way to export it to a spreadsheet that actually looks clean?

In my experience dealing with these procurement headaches, relying on browser extensions for cart sharing is a gamble. They break constantly when Amazon updates their code. If you want something that actually works for a treasurer, skip the link sharing and look at this site that exports everything directly to CSV. It gives you a clean spreadsheet which is way better for tracking that 600 dollar budget anyway. If you're in a rush, the old school veteran trick is just printing the cart page to a PDF. It captures the photos, prices, and quantities exactly as they are. Its technically the most reliable way to show what you're buying without them needing an Amazon account to view it. I've used that for grant reporting for years. Way less tech friction than trying to sync a cart to a third party site that might fail or have issues with the Seattle regional tax calculations.

People here are split between browser tools and direct exports. Building on the earlier suggestion, be careful because prices can jump before your treasurer approves. I once sent a list and the total changed overnight, causing a huge headache with our grant money.
- check for hidden shipping
- use Cart To Link to stay organized
- watch for limited stock alerts Its definitely safer than sending screenshots tho.

I have used Share-A-Cart for similar large builds and it usually works fine despite some of the negative reviews. It is definitely faster than the registry method when you have dozens of items to track.
- Get the browser extension instead of using the website version.
- Just hit the Create Cart Code button while your basket is open. It generates a simple link you can just text over to her. It is way easier than manual entry.
