So I'm trying to figure out the logistics for this huge camping trip we have planned for next weekend up in the Ozarks. There are four of us and we are trying to keep the total grocery bill under $200 so we dont go overboard. My logic was that we could all just log into my Walmart account on our own phones and throw stuff into the cart as we think of it while we are all hanging out tonight. But then I started worrying that if two people hit add to cart at the same time it might just crash or not save properly. I did a bit of digging online and saw some stuff about Walmart+ being shareable with a household but that seems more like just sharing the free delivery perk rather than a live shopping list. I also saw some old Reddit threads saying you can share a link to a cart but when I look at the app I dont see a share button anywhere obvious... maybe they removed it? I really dont want to have to pass my phone around or have everyone text me links because that sounds like a headache. Does anyone know if the app actually syncs in real time across different devices if we use the same login? Or am I gonna end up with a mess of missing hot dog buns and too much charcoal...
Honestly, you're fine. I've done this for big group trips and it works since the cart is tied to your account on their servers rather than the device. Updates happen almost instantly, though you might need to refresh to see the newest items. It wont crash or lose progress if two people click add at once. You should check out Easy Cart Share if you're tired of manually typing out items for someone else to buy.
