Why is the Walmart cart sharing link not working for me right now when I really need to get this order in? I am super stressed out because our delivery slot for the week is about to expire in like ninety minutes and my roommate needs to see the final total before we split the bill. Every time I send her the share link from my cart it just takes her to a page that says her cart is empty even though I have over $250 worth of stuff in mine.
I am debating between a few workarounds:
- Trying the share as a list feature instead of the cart link
- Giving her my actual login info which feels sketchy and I dont really want to do
- Just taking a dozen screenshots and sending them over text
The screenshot thing is gonna be a nightmare because we have so many bulk items for the pantry and I dont want to miss anything. I really prefer the cart sharing so she can just hit add all or whatever but it just wont load for her. Is there some setting I have to toggle or is the Walmart app just glitching out? We are trying to stay under a strict budget this month and I dont want to accidentally double order something if she starts her own cart from scratch and we end up with two of everything...

I've dealt with this exact headache before when I was trying to coordinate a huge supply run for a camping trip last summer. Honestly, the Walmart cart share feature is super finicky because it relies heavily on browser cookies and active sessions. If your roommate isnt logged into their own account on the same browser before clicking that link, it usually fails and shows an empty cart. I would suggest being very careful with your approach here.
- Whatever you do, dont give out your login info. I did that once with a cousin and it messed up my saved payment methods and order history for months.
- You might want to consider using the share as a list feature instead. Its way more stable than the direct cart link because it doesnt expire as fast.
- Be careful about clicking the link from within a text app; it often breaks the session. I've noticed it glitches most when you're switching between the app and a mobile browser too... basically the cart link is just unreliable. Using the list feature is definitely the way to go to stay under budget.
