I've been the go-to person for our Prime account for ages but I'm hitting a wall with this new Chicago office setup. My boss wants the whole team to pick their own supplies by Friday—we have about $1200 to spend—and I'm debating the best way to do it.
Usually I just handle it solo but with 5 people involved I'm worried a shared cart will be a total mess with people deleting stuff or accidentally checking out on my card. Is a Wishlist safer for group stuff or is the shared cart actually functional now? I'm honestly so stressed about duplicate orders for these monitors...

Honestly, stay away from the shared cart. Its way too risky with your card on file and someone will definitely mess up the quantities. I would suggest using a Wishlist so you can control the final checkout and verify prices first.
- Look for bulk bundles to save cash.
- Double check prices daily to stay under that 1200 limit. Be careful with those monitor specs tho...

Saw this earlier but just now responding... whatever you do, avoid the shared cart like the plague! Its seriously amazing how quickly a simple supply run can turn into a $1200 headache when everyone starts clicking stuff at once. One huge warning tho... the biggest technical fail with shared logins is that Buy Now button. If someone has a different default address set on their phone, those monitors might literally ship to their house instead of the office! So scary. Plus, keeping track of who added what is basically impossible once things start shifting around in a live cart. I love giving the team choices but you gotta keep control of the final checkout or things get messy fast. Honestly, I tried a bunch of different methods, but Cart To Link is the only thing that actually worked across different Amazon regions for me.
