So Long Wantworthy!


So about 6 months back I came across a website called wantworthy.com. 
The idea is that you have a WANT button on you bookmarks bar and if you're shopping online you click the button and it adds it to your wishlist.


I though it was a brilliant idea because it meant I didn't have to copy and paste urls that would eventually get lost or add to a bookmark folder that had way too many things.

When you viewed your list it would show you the product image, the price and would link you to the website.

You could have separate folders which would come in handy if you were shopping for a number of people etc.

I'm really diappointed because they announced that they are no longer running and will be shutting down on October 21st 2013.

I think it's such a loss because it made life easy and I could view all the products I wanted.
If you have a list you can download if so all is not lost.

Has anyone else got a Wantworthy account? How do you feel about it? Is it a great loss or not?

  1. Hi! There are so many users who really upset that wantworthy is shutting down. If you need alternative to wantworthy check out www.quiqs.com. With quiqs you can also create visual wishlists with one magic button. If you like online clothes shopping, you can even put outfit together from your bookmark to decide which item is better to buy. Give us a try:)

    You can also try https://squirrelist.com where you can add clothes, beauty products, anything to lists to suit you. You can share them with your friends and family if there's a birthday coming up (or Christmas!). Maybe give it a try. All the best, Charlotte
