[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, that's just how MILs are. Mine has been told repeatedly not to use my Amazon wish list as a guide to what I actually want as gifts (I use it for things I'm thinking about buying myself, DH, or our kids and it often contains multiple brands of the same type of thing I'm considering). So this year I got the cheapest of eight hand vacs on my list. I think it's obvious that if there are 8 things on a list, the person hasn't decided what they want yet, but apparently not to MIL.

Can you make it private?

I recommend that you create a new free Yahoo account that does not include your name.  Then use that to create your Amazon wish list for things you are just thinking about and leave the account that family knows about for things you are actually interested in getting.  You know that you can't control your MIL and she'll check out your wish list, so just split the wish list.[/quote]

That seems overly complicated. I guess I could make it private but it's just weird that she checks out my wish list that I've never told anyone about, she had to search for it. I'll just make it private but it's just so silly that we've told her a thousand times not to look at our amazon accounts and she still goes and searches for them on Amazon. [/quote]
