I purchased a bunch of presents off my kids’ wish lists and one of the presents could have been requested by either of 2 kids. I can’t remember which one wanted it.

I can’t see items on their wish lists that have been purchased. There is a “hack” out there that indicates putting a “?reveal=purchased” at the end of the url for the wish list, but that isn’t adding any additional items to the standard list.

There is a filter option for the lists, but I can’t filter in purchased items for a list that isn’t mine.

Anyone know how I can figure out which wish list the item came from?
