There is already some support for this. Check out the Visitor entity and the visitorId on the ShoppingList. Some coding may need to be done to make it work the way you want in the UI and such.

Hi All, We sell directly to the consumer (B2C) and have a question regardingshopping lists. At the moment the wish list/shopping list is stored based on a user creating and signing into an account but is there a way to use it anonymously? In our current site we found that when we allowed consumers to add to their wish list/shopping list anonymously (without sign-up), our conversion rate ended up increasing. When faced with a sign-up page to add to a wish list, it was simply abandoned by the consumer in the vast majorityof cases.We also found that we had to allow the wish list to be saved in a cookie for returning customers. The end result was a greater conversion rate. Our only requirement for signing up was at checkout or if they wanted to use other tools or by signing up for specials, etc. So, is there a way we can use a reference to retrieve the wish list, some other id other than a signed in party ID which is stored in cookie and then, when the visitor opens the site that particular cookie is read and the shopping list can be retrieved fromthe database?Has anyone else run into this problem? Could anyone please offer some advice to us for the best way to handle this? Any comments or suggestions would begreatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
