The ultimate gift guide for lazy procrastinators

19.12.2008

Match gifts with people on your list, and write the gift next to the list of people you made in Step 1. When you're giving the same gift to more than one person, change the number in the Qty column on the right to reflect the number of gifts. Once you've chosen which gifts go to whom, use the Delete buttons to eliminate the gifts you will not be giving to anybody.

When your Shopping Cart reflects only the items and the quantities of those items you intend to buy, you're ready for the next step.

Click on the "Show gift options during checkout" box just under the "Proceed to Checkout" button. Now click that "Proceed to Checkout" button. You'll be asked to re-enter your e-mail address and password.

Click on the "Ship to multiple addresses" button. Click on the "Enter a new shipping address" link. Click on "enter a new shipping address" at the top of the page. Add the first mailing address from your list of people you intend to mail gifts to. Repeat until all addresses are added.

Once all addresses are entered correctly, click on the "Ship to multiple addresses" button. (Note that if Amazon.com gives you a page you don't want, simply go back to Amazon.com, then click on "Cart" to start over. Don't worry. The Web site will remember all the changes you made.) Now, change the address for every item you want Amazon to deliver for you. Make sure the remainder will go to your own address. Click "Continue."
