Kurt\u2019s easy Amazon holiday hack to hide what gifts are being bought online for loved ones sharing the same prime shopping account. Follow these simple steps to keep gifts under the tree a secret between just you and Santa.<\/p>\n

Think back to the days when hiding Christmas presents<\/a> meant sticking them in a secretive place in the attic or basement. You not only have to hide the physical gifts you’ve bought, but now you need to cover your online purchase footsteps as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry, you\u2019re not the only one shopping for Christmas gifts on Amazon. Unfortunately, your spouse, kids or siblings may be using your Amazon prime account<\/a> as well. So how do you still add the element of surprise if you can see what everyone has bought on Amazon? No problem, Amazon has created a few features that will help keep your purchases hidden, so Christmas morning is full of surprises.<\/p>\n

Turn on Amazon Household<\/strong><\/p>\n

This may be the simplest solution.\u00a0Amazon Household<\/a> is an Amazon feature that allows you to share your Prime benefits with the family. You can create up to two adult accounts, four for teenagers and four child profiles. Amazon Household keeps all shopping purchases and notifications for shipping separate. So no need to worry about your Christmas present being revealed before giving it out.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With Amazon Household, you not only get to keep your purchase separate, you can also share eBooks<\/a>, audiobooks, digital content and games.<\/p>\n

THE GRINCH COULD BE STEALING YOUR CHRISTMAS CHECKS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Archive an Order<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is very useful if you share your account with multiple people or have sneaky kids<\/a> who know your password and will look at your purchase history.\u00a0The following will only work on a desktop or laptop browser (not on a tablet or mobile device).<\/i><\/p>\n

A list of your orders from the past three months will appear<\/p>\n

Even though the item will no longer appear in Your Orders, you can still view it in\u00a0“Archived Orders”\u00a0from Your Account.<\/p>\n

Hide from Alexa<\/strong><\/p>\n

HOW TO SCRUB YOURSELF OFF THE INTERNET<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Now, if you have some real sleuths in your household, you are going to need to do more than just archive your purchases to make sure your gifts are still surprises. You can start by changing your Alexa settings.<\/p>\n

Now Alexa will still notify you when a package is being delivered, but it will not say what the item is.<\/p>\n

Clear Your Search History<\/strong><\/p>\n

We all have that one relentless person, determined to find out which presents were purchased this year. Another step to keep them off your tracks is deleting your “Search History.”<\/p>\n

The following will only work on a desktop or laptop browser (not on a tablet or mobile device).<\/i><\/p>\n
