MelissaM Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I thought mine was high at 15 items for our first six weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plaid Dad Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Wow. That's a lot of stuff! I currently have 16 items, but half of those are books I eventually want to borrow from the library. My Amazon list is just a convenient way to store those titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GailV Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Wow, I thought mine was huge at 60. And a lot of those are things I don't really want to own, I just want to read someday. Although some have been on there so long that I no longer care ... I did go through the other day and delete several things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abbeyej Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 16. I also have 56 in my "saved for later" portion of my cart. (That way if I click on "cart" it tells me if there has been a major price change in any item -- that's really convenient, 'cause if something I've been waiting to purchase is suddenly and briefly half off, I want to know!) My numbers have been higher in the past. I recently "cleaned out" some items I no longer needed on the lists. If the lists get too large, they're just not useful to me anymore.

Melora in NC Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I'll make you feel better -- mine is at 364! However, I don't Want most of the books on it. There are probably 20 - 30 that I really may buy eventually, or that my mom will buy for the kids for birthday or Christmas presents. The rest are things that I saw recommended somewhere and conveniently saved on my Amazon list until I get around to trying to borrow them from the library (which is mostly a futile effort anyway because our system is so small).

earthmother Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 I think perhaps I have issues with books. I guess there are worse things to be addicted to. Many of the books, are ones I WANT to check out from the library but ours doesn't carry. Our library doesn't even have ones like Swallows and Amazons and Paddle to the Sea so I keep it on my wish list until one appears for 1 cent or something like that!!

TammyinTN Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Just 10 items left in my wish list...I just finished all my school shopping for the next school year...these items would just be little treat items, if you know what I mean. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa at Home Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 and it had 17 items in it. They were all for when my kids were younger, and none of those items would be used now, so I dumped them. I had hoped that the grandparents would utilize the wish list feature, but alas, they never did. Oh well! ~Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karenciavo Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have 5 wish lists, I'm not sure. Not as much as you, probably over 100 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoughCollie Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I don't have a wish list. I do have 151 items in the "saved to buy later" section of my shopping cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutmeg Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I currently have 16 items, but half of those are books I eventually want to borrow from the library.

percytruffle Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I currently have 16 items, but half of those are books I eventually want to borrow from the library. My Amazon list is just a convenient way to store those titles. 18 items for me, all "saved for later" and most of those are stored as library loan fodder :) I just cleaned out the shopping cart a few weeks ago. Dh had things in there from four years ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoughCollie Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 That's exactly what I do. Wow. That's a lot of stuff!

Crissy Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Zero. I guess I'm a bit impulsive when it comes to book purchases. I don't wish, I buy. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer in NH Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 my list is about 200. But, I have a reason for it! I put everything I want curricilum wise on the list and then printed it out (in a condensed form without pictures). I now keep the list with me in case I come accross any of those books at either Library booksales or at used book stores or even at yard sales....I have my fingers crossed that I will find a good many. I have all the books I need for this next school year so the list is for the following 2 to 3 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3lilreds in NC Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I have 108 on mine - you guys make me feel much better about that, LOL! That's just on my list though, not the one for the girls or Schmooey or the list that is not books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutmeg Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Well over 1000. A question for you and others - do you sort these? How? Have multiple lists? Do you add notes or comments to keep everything straight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 A question for you and others - do you sort these? How? Have multiple lists? Do you add notes or comments to keep everything straight?Yes. All of the above. The homeschooling lists are broken down by subject, and there is one general list for the kids and one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
