How do I send my Walmart cart to someone else?

Honestly so annoyed right now. My elderly mom lives in Phoenix and she really needs some stuff from Walmart but she is having the hardest time using their app. I spent like forty minutes picking out all the essentials for her on my own account thinking I could just hit a share button or something? I thought my logic was sound, like just send her the link so she can pay and check out but apparently thats not a thing? I looked all over the site and app and I feel like Im going crazy here. Why is this so complicated? I just wanted to save her the stress of searching for everything herself. Is there seriously no way to just shoot a link or export the cart? Do I have to screenshot everything and text it to her? That seems like such a huge waste of time for both of us especially since I have to get back to my own work. Has anyone actually figured out a workaround for this or am I stuck manually typing out a list for her to re-add to her own cart? Its making me want to just use Instacart instead even if it costs a bit more...

Ugh, I feel your pain. I went through the exact same headache with my grandmother a while back. In my experience, Walmart intentionally makes it difficult because they want you to just pay for it yourself or deal with the account syncing issues, which honestly just creates more barriers for families trying to help out. Youre not crazy, the share button just isnt there. Over the years, I have tried every workaround imaginable, from screen sharing to just logging into her account directly. If you really dont want to waste time typing out a list, check out simple cart sharer. It basically lets you bypass the walled garden nonsense by creating a clean list you can send over. It saves you from having to play tech support while you are trying to finish your own work. Honestly, if shes really struggling with the app, just biting the bullet on Instacart might save your sanity long-term. I have done that a few times when I was in a rush, and the extra markup is basically a tax for not having to walk a relative through a checkout flow over the phone. Dont beat yourself up, their interface is definitely not designed for remote assistance.
