Let an agent handle carts, orders, and flight checks

A commenter and their wife use an agent to edit Walmart groceries, place Amazon orders, and compare airfare.

What they did
The commenter said they and their wife keep turning to an AI agent for three recurring errands: updating Walmart grocery delivery lists, purchasing items on Amazon, and checking flight prices. They did not explain how the agent was set up, what permissions it had, or where they stepped in.
How it went
They only said this is something they use on a regular basis. No savings, booking success, or mistakes were described.
Tips
This works best when the agent can gather options and prepare the final screen, while you keep control of checkout and booking. Always review the cart and fare choices before anything is finalized.

Try it yourself with ChatGPT Agent

Open my [Walmart/Amazon/airline] account and help me complete these tasks: [grocery list], [Amazon item], and [travel plan]. For airfare, look up round-trip options between [origin] and [destination] on [dates] using [site 1], [site 2], and [site 3], then compare the prices. Stop after you show me the updated cart, the item you found, and the best flight choices; do not buy, book, submit, or delete anything until I approve.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
