my new favorite tool
Do you know about Amazon's universal wish list?
If you don't, you should. It's pretty much the coolest thing ever. (Jessie turned me on to it.)
Simply add their "Add to Wish List" button to your browser toolbar, and you can add items from any website to your Amazon wish list. That way, you can keep track of any and all gifts you are wishing for in one centralized place.
Mine has items I am wishing for, and ideas for gifts I want to give to others. Marc tells me this is stupid, and I should separate my lists, but it works for me (for now, anyway). Jessie has a list for herself, and another one for her girls.
Basically, I wish everyone I know would have one of these wish lists, it makes gift buying SO much easier! (Dad, this means you.)
And with the free Amazon Prime membership that Jill hooked me up with, I am just an Amazon devotee right now. With no shipping to worry about, I am ordering online gifts left and right!
(This is not a paid endorsement. Obviously.)

Um, yeah! I am obsessed with this! I have like 109 things on my wishlist and it is like virtual shopping. Every time I see something I would like, I don't hesitate to add it with my universal wish list toolbar. It almost feels like I just bought it! It's like a grown-up registry for wants. I also have one for Timm now that is usually private but I share if necessary. I agree everyone should do this. I love Amazon.
I only wish this were a paid endorsement.
But wait- when did you start yours? I don't have the link. You have to give the link for this to be effective :)
Prime membership? This all sounds exciting - might have to check it out...
...yea, where's the link?! but good grief, a little too late for this year!
Jessie's universal list made my shopping a breeze! For those who are time deprived, it's a dream!'
I wouldn't hold out too long for Dad to follow, however...
This is a fabulous idea, I can't wait to check it out! But how do we see other people's lists?
Jill, I think you just search for their name.
Yes, yes, yes! I love this function! The regular Amazon lists were so nice to begin with because of the site's large selection, but the universal function just made their wishlists so much better.
