Shared on 2 July 2024, by Julie
For many, Independence Day brings the middle of summer with celebrations revolving around backyard BBQs, pool parties, beach days, and of course, fireworks shows. But it’s also one of the bigger holidays for shopping – to the point where stores are more often participating than not. But with so many stores offering up “best of the season” offers or “lowest prices of the year” it can quickly become an overwhelming endeavor. Share-A-Cart can simplify that process, and give you time to get back to the fun with friends and family instead of huddling over a screen all day...

We looked at data on shopping carts shared for the week of 11/21/2023-11/27/2023, and, unsurprisingly, we saw big shopping upticks on both Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

What do consumers spend per item in different shopping categories? - Share-A-Cart Data & Research
Shared on 10 November 2023, by Ed
Share-A-Cart sees a lot of shopping activity. Every month, our users share millions of items with purchasers across more than 37,000 shopping carts. Further, many of these carts are viewed and ordered, for example when the list is something that needs to be purchased at regular intervals or by several purchasers.
There is a lot of research around how much people spend per shopping trip or per month across different categories, but we haven’t found many sites that show how much people are spending per item by category.

Introducing List Export
Shared on 11 March 2023, by Mike
Share-A-Cart is all about sharing store carts and shopping lists. You can already share a shopping list created from vendor with a single click with our extension or by using the product search feature on our website. We also have integration with Shopify which adds a button straight to the check out flow for you to share your haul with friends.
Today we're adding an often-requested sharing feature – cart export to Excel. To export a list load it on the website, for example: AKGUX. Scroll to the bottom and click on the "List Actions" button. This will expand into several items including "Export". Click export and you'll get an Excel spreadsheet with the contents of the cart including information about the items in it. The exported file will contain the vendor item id, item title, quantity and price. There will also be a link to the item on the vendor site.

Share-A-Cart has been the leading solution for shopping sharing and recommendation for several years. Today we extend out market reach to include Shopify integration via our new Shopify app — Share-A-Cart for Your Store
