Why do you need to crowd source the answer to this? What’s really going on?

Just say no and tell you are the only one handling your account. Guaranteed she will mess up account by addresses and then what about returns if she does not like what she orders? She needs to get her own account.

While I agree with you not to share the password, you can archive past items and she'd have to really dig and know where to look for find them. I don't have prime, wouldn't use it enough to justify the cost, but occasionally ask someone if they can order something for me via prime and then send the money right then.

Nope. For so many reasons, not the least of which would be that she would use all my Amazon credit reward points because “they were there.” She once offered to take our daughter to Carter’s for some new clothes and then came home saying “Did you know you had $50 in Carter’s rewards? I used them for you and my shopping trip with granddaughter didn’t cost anything!” Of course I knew I had them! WTF a did you give my phone number to the clerk and steal my points? I had already done my back to school shopping for our daughter and was going to use the points for our other child’s back to school shopping when you announced you wanted to go buy some special things (that she didn’t need) for our daughter.

No. She should give you her credit card info so you can buy it for her.

My spouse used his brothers bday as all his pins and Pws for 25 years.
He was dumb enough to also use it in his iPad. Not the kids can bust into all our accounts and we had to go redo everything. He can’t remember though so constant resets. Constant. Ugh.

One of her friends have mentioned that she has her kids Amazon password and can use it to see what they buy. She probably rationalizes this as an easier way to pick out gifts but she’s really snooping.

Yep, I don’t know why else she wants my password since I even offered to buy it for her.

Nope! I don't give out my passwords. I might change my password to Grandma1952 for the day when she orders something (although I wouldn't trust her to add her own address AND her own credit card) and then change it back to my real password. But I would not give out my password.

Found the sharing info! https://www.androidpolice.com/share-amazon-prime-account-household-friends-family/amp/

This is amazing, thank you! DH has a tendency to reset the amazon password then forget the new password and we’ve had more arguments than I can count about f&;-$king passwords.

Common argument:
DW: "honey, can you look at the ____ cart and let me know what you think?"
me: "sure!" [in a few minutes]: "I can't get in and it looks like you changed the password. Do you remember what it is?"
DW: "......"

Nope. My DH gave the amazon password to his sister, and she ended up watching tv shows and movies that required payment.
She used the default credit card on the account.
Mine.
And did not have the decency to ask beforehand or say anything on the back end.
She is 40 years old.

No.

Have your MIL give you the money and then you can order it for her and have it shipped to her house.

No do not offer anything. Just say no.

No.

I'm usually a people-pleaser, and I don't mind sharing all kinds of private information about my life, but I said No when my mother asked to be friends on FB. I would also say No to this.

Absolutely not, and the same goes for my parents. I would ask her to send you a link and order it to be shipped to her.
