How to Share Best Buy Cart

Best Buy is one of the biggest and most popular stores for electronics. You can shop online for laptops, TVs, phones, video games, headphones, appliances, and more. If it plugs in or has a screen, Best Buy probably sells it. Lots of people shop there—especially when there are sales or holiday deals.

But here’s the thing: What if you want to show your cart to a friend or family member before you check out? Maybe you want someone to double-check your laptop pick. Or maybe your partner wants to add something before you buy. You might think there's a simple “share cart” button on BestBuy.com—but nope, it’s not there.

Good news: There’s an easy way to share your Best Buy cart. You can use a free Chrome extension, and it works like magic.

Why Share Your Best Buy Cart?

There are lots of reasons why people want to share their Best Buy cart. Here are a few common ones:

You’re buying a gift and want to ask a friend if it’s the right one.
You’re building a gaming setup and want feedback on the monitor or console.
You and your roommate are splitting the cost of a new TV or microwave.
You found a good deal and want to let others know before it sells out.
You’re a parent and want to check with your kid before buying a laptop or game.

If you ever want someone else to see your picks before you buy, sharing your cart saves time.

Can You Share Your Best Buy Cart?

Yes! Even though Best Buy doesn’t have a built-in “share cart” feature, it is still possible.

The best way to do it is by using a Chrome extension called Share Amazon Cart ↗. This tool helps you turn your cart into a link that you can share with anyone. There are also other ways like using wish lists or copying product links, but the Chrome extension is the most straightforward way on Best Buy.

Using the “Share Amazon Cart” Chrome Extension

What It Is

The Share Amazon Cart Extension ↗ is a free tool for Chrome and Edge users. It lets you create a link from your Best Buy cart. When someone clicks the link, they’ll see all the items and can add them to their own cart with one click.

The extension requires minimal permissions and installs quickly.

How to Use the Extension

Install the extension. Go to the extension page ↗ and install it on Chrome or Edge.
Shop like usual. Add grocery items to your Best Buy cart like you normally would.
Click "Share Cart". Open any Best Buy page and click the new “Share Cart” button.
Copy & Share. Copy the shareable link and send it to someone.

The recipient opens the link and adds the same items to their cart.

Note: It does not clear anything previously in their cart.

Why It’s Better Than Other Methods

Share a cart without having to share accounts
Shares exact items and quantities
Shares exact brands and options

Another Option: Copy and Paste Product Links

Here is an example cart:

Manual Process

Open each item in the browser.
Copy the URL from your browser.
Paste each link into a message.

This works if you only have a few products. It’s not ideal for large or complex carts. You risk sending the wrong link or missing an item, which can cause confusion for the people you’re sharing with.
