Unfortunately, Walmart doesn't have a native share cart button that actually works for collaborative shopping. I've tried their built-in list sharing and it's honestly not as good as expected since it doesn't actually let the other person checkout your items. It's frustrating when you're trying to manage a big 350 dollar budget and keep things organized. I had issues with the extension you mentioned too. It's buggy on mobile and sometimes drops items which is a nightmare if you're trying to hit that free delivery minimum without overspending.

• Use the Walmart Lists feature for planning, but it wont sync the cart.
• Share-A-Cart works okay on desktop but it's risky for big orders.
• Sharing your login is sadly the most efficient way to ensure you guys use one account to grab those bulk deals and avoid double delivery charges. Just change your password after the trip if you're worried about security. It's the only way to keep the budget in check without the headache of items disappearing.

Just saw this. Honestly, Walmarts backend is a total nightmare... they tie your cart to a local session cookie which makes direct links impossible. I tried hacking a script for a family reunion once but gave up. Extensions are basically the only fix, though mobile support is hit or miss. TL;DR Walmart doesn't allow link sharing due to session-locking. I found this tool called Easy Cart Share that lets you share your cart items and quantities in one click.

Building on the earlier suggestion, I actually disagree that it has to be such a massive headache! I do this every single year for our big family reunions and it is honestly a total game changer. I love it! While Walmart definitely lags behind sites like Amazon or Instacart when it comes to native group shopping features, using the walmart cart share extension makes the whole thing feel amazing and so professional. It is way better than sharing passwords... I tried that once and my sister accidentally bought her whole weekly grocery run on my saved credit card lol. Never again! The extension is fantastic for those huge $300+ orders because it keeps everything super organized. Just have her open it on a laptop to import the list and you are good to go. It makes the trip prep so much more fun!!

Huh interesting. I had no idea. The more you know I guess 🤷

Ngl, I've had zero issues using this Chrome extension for exactly this. It's way safer than handing out your login info and just works well.

• super reliable for big orders
• no weird session timeouts
• creates a simple code for her Works perfectly for me every time we do a cabin trip, no complaints here... just have her use her laptop to import it.
