So I am finally moving into this big loft in Chicago next month with three of my best friends and we are totally geeked to deck the place out. I have been a Prime member since like 2012 and I know my way around the UI pretty well but man trying to coordinate a shared cart is a total nightmare right now. We keep sending links back and forth in a group chat and half the stuff gets buried or someone buys a duplicate of the same rug because we werent looking at the same page.

I have tried the standard Amazon Lists feature but it is super clunky for real-time stuff and you cant really vote or see what is actually in someone's checkout basket vs just saved for later. We are looking for a tool or maybe some kind of browser extension that makes this feel more like a shared experience.

Here is what we need:

• Needs to be free or very cheap since our moving budget is already stretched thin
• Must allow at least 4 people to add items to a single list or cart
• Real-time updates so we dont accidentally buy two coffee makers
• Ideally something that doesnt require everyone to have their own separate paid Prime account just to view the list

Is there like a third-party app or a Chrome extension that handles this better than the native Amazon site? I feel like there has to be a better way than just sharing one login and getting flagged for suspicious activity lol...
