Honestly, taking screenshots is the worst way to go about this, Ive tried it and it always leads to someone missing an item or complaining about the price later. Over the years, Ive coordinated dozens of group buys for block parties and office gear, and nothing beats a solid cart sharing tool. In my experience, the native Amazon stuff is way too slow for a quick yes or no from roommates who just want to see the total. I personally use a simple browser extension to share Amazon carts whenever Im in this spot. It basically bundles everything into a single link that actually works on mobile browsers. One quick tip: just double-check that your cart is actually full before you hit the share button, because sometimes it wont update live if you add stuff after the link is generated. Its totally free and keeps things simple for everyone.

In my experience, syncing carts on mobile is a nightmare because of how Safari handles extensions. If you want it to work on iPhones, find tools that give you a shareable URL without a login.

• Skip the Amazon Invite feature, it is too slow.
• Use something that bundles items into one link. I found Cart To Link recently and it makes sharing Amazon lists so much faster than the old manual way.
