- What
is GirlsLikeStuff.com and how does it work?
GirlsLikeStuff.com is a teenager-created (our president is a teenager!)
shopping community where girls recommend, share and uncover new stuff.
To use GirlsLikeStuff.com, you add the "Add to GirlsLikeStuff" Shopping Wizard to your favorites list. Whenever
you like a product, an article, a picture or any web page, click on
the Add to GirlsLikeStuff.com link that is in your computer's Favorites list and it will lead you through adding it to your personal
collection list in GirlsLikeStuff.com. You can create a list on any
topic ranging from buying a pair of shoes to planning a science project
or even researching an upcoming summer vacation. You can click on
the My Profile link on GirlsLikeStuff.com at any time to see all your lists.
You can also use GirlsLikeStuff.com without signing up to just see
what others are adding to GirlsLikeStuff.com. For further detail,
see the Get Started page.
- How
do I invite my friends to GirlsLikeStuff.com?
You should invite all of your friends to join. This is a great way
to stay up on the latest stuff to buy, wear or see. Here’s how
you do it: Use the "Invite Friends" link on the your profile page or on the top right
of any GirlsLikeStuff.com page. Anyone you invite will be listed as
your friend in GirlsLikeStuff.com once they sign up and you’ll
be notified of each other’s activity as you add public items
and comments in GirlsLikeStuff.com.
- Will
GirlsLikeStuff.com always be free to use?
We plan to keep GirlsLikeStuff.com free forever. We believe that the
ads within the GirlsLikeStuff.com site as well as future advertiser-supported
features will be helpful to GirlsLikeStuff.com users and
will also pay the college tuition, rent and wages for the GirlsLikeStuff.com
team. That’s my Dad’s plan, anyway.
- I want
my friends to vote on which items on my list they like best. Is there
an easy way to do that?
Yes. In the bar beneath your list title, there is a drop-down menu
titled "More Actions." Select "List Settings."
Make sure the list type is something other than "Wishlist"
or "Top Picks" and then click the "On" button
where it says Item Voting. Your friends will see 5 stars associated
with each item and can easily cast their votes. Once someone votes,
as the list owner you will be able to click the blue link beneath
the image for any item and see the details of who has voted and what
their vote was.
- I don’t
want to get any spam. Do you share users’ email addresses with
anyone else?
I hate spam, too. We do not share email addresses of GirlsLikeStuff.com
users with anyone. The only mail you will receive as a result of registering
with GirlsLikeStuff.com will come directly from us. And you’ll
be able to opt out of communications from us at any time through a
link included on every email we send.
- Is there
a limit to the number of lists I can have?
There is no limit to the number of lists you can have. We hope you
will create a wide variety of GirlsLikeStuff.com lists and that you
will keep most of them public so that the entire GirlsLikeStuff.com
community can benefit from your ideas.
- I got
the "Add to GirlsLikeStuff" Shopping Wizard in my favorites list, but when I click "Add to GirlsLikeStuff.com"
nothing happens. What’s up?

are disabled on your Web Browser. If you need help enabling JavaScript
or cookies, click the Send Feedback link at the bottom of this page

- I’m
using someone else’s computer. Can I remove the GirlsLikeStuff.com
Shopping Wizard when I’m done?
Yes. It’s very simple to remove the GirlsLikeStuff.com Shopping Wizard.
1. Click the "Favorites" star on your computer.
2. Right click on the "Add to GirlsLikeStuff" in your Favorites list.
3. Left click on Delete.
- How
do I make one of my lists private?

- Can
I change the order of items on my list?
In the bar beneath your list title, there is a drop-down menu titled
"More Actions." Select "Reorder List." Then, on
the next screen, either drag and drop items or click the up and down
arrows to reorganize your list and click "Submit" to make
the change.
- How
do I delete a list?
In the bar beneath your list there is the option to View or Delete, select Delete.
- How
do I change the title of my list?
In the bar beneath your list title, there is a drop-down menu titled
"More Actions." Select "List Settings" and then
you enter the title you want in the "List name" box and
click "Submit" to make the change.
- How
do I change an existing GirlsLikeStuff.com list into a “Wish
List” or a “Top Picks” list or a different list
type?
In the bar beneath your list title, there is a drop-down menu titled
"More Actions." Select "List Settings," then click
the button next to the appropriate type in the "List type"
area. The choices are "Shopping" (for shopping research
and decisions), "Travel" (for trip planning with your fsmily
or friends), "Top Picks" (for creating a list of your favorite
stuff where items are labeled #1, #2, #3…), "Wish List"
(for grabbing stuff you want and sharing the list with other members
for coordinated gift-giving), "Collectibles" (for showcasing
rare or interesting stuff in your collection), and "Other"
(for the hundreds of other GirlsLikeStuff.com uses).
- How
do I create an item on my list using my own words and pictures from
my computer?
Click the "Add New Item" link in the bar beneath the title
of your list. Then enter title, description, tags and other information
and up to 4 images. This item will look just like other items on your
list. But when clicked, instead of going to some other website, it
will lead to the list you created on GirlsLikeStuff.com.
- After
I create a Wishlist, how do I make sure other girls find it?
From your Wish List, click "E-mail List" in the gray bar
beneath your Wish List title. Then on the "To:" line, enter
the email addresses of everyone you want to share your Wishlist with
(and use a comma after each email address you enter). Add any message
text you might want to include and then click the "Send"
button. All the girls on your list will receive an email invitation
and will be able to view your Wishlist whether or not they are registered
GirlsLikeStuff.com users.
- How
can I find the Wishlist of someone I know?
Go to any GirlsLikeStuff.com list they’ve created and simply
click their username near the top of the list where it says "[username]
is GirlsLikeStuffing about:" to see a list of all their public
GirlsLikeStuff.com lists. Unless they’ve made their Wishlist
private, you should see it among their public GirlsLikeStuff.com lists.
- When
I reserve a gift from someone’s Wishlist, do other girls see
that I reserved it?
When you reserve a gift from someone’s Wishlist, other shoppers
who visit the Wishlist see that the gift has been reserved, but they
do not see who reserved it. The Wishlist owner does not see any indication
that the gift has been reserved unless they click a "peek"
link that will show whether or not a particular gift has been reserved;
but even then, they do not see who reserved the gift. So, your identity
is secure, unless you blab and tell a friend, who tells another friend,
who…
- How
do I share specific GirlsLikeStuff.com lists with others?
On any GirlsLikeStuff.com list, just click "E-mail List"
in the bar beneath the list title. Enter as many email addresses as
you like on the "To:" line (and use a comma after each email
address when you’re entering more than one email address). Then
type a message if you want and click the "Send" button.
- If
I want to share my list with friends, do they have to first sign up
for GirlsLikeStuff.com?
No. Whenever you share a list with your friends by using the "E-mail
List" link they will be able to view the list with one click
even if they are not yet registered GirlsLikeStuff.com members.
- What
are GirlsLikeStuff.com groups?
In GirlsLikeStuff.com, you can form groups around common areas
of interest, your sports, hobbies, school or work groups,
family, friends, or clothing choices. Each group will feature a forum
where members can discuss topics of interest, relevant GirlsLikeStuff.com
lists submitted by individual group members, and a "Group Collection"
where group members can submit individual items to a GirlsLikeStuff.com
list.
- How
do I copy from interesting lists I find on GirlsLikeStuff.com?
Each list and every item in GirlsLikeStuff.com has a Copy link. If
you want to copy an entire list or multiple items from the same list,
from the drop-down menu titled "More Actions," select "Copy."
Select the list you would like to copy to (or create a new list) and
the items you would like to copy, and then click "Copy"
in the bar beneath the title of the list. To copy just one item from
a list, click the "Copy Item" link beneath the summary information
for the item.
- Is
there any way to search for specific lists?
Yes. Our search box is available in the upper-middle, under the Navigation bar of every page.
- What
is the best way to keep track of GirlsLikeStuff.com lists I find?
To keep track of GirlsLikeStuff.com lists you want to visit again
and to be notified of any new activity on those lists, add them to
your Favorites. To do so, go to the list you want to add. In the bar
beneath the list title, there is a drop-down menu titled "More

is the purpose of the "I like this list" button and why
should I click it?

the system uses for determining which lists to show highest in the
search results and in other places on the site.
