Have been using this each holiday season because it's been so helpful, but I recently updated my Chrome browser (like, TODAY) and it's now stopped working. Incredibly frustrating.

Exists to skim data from people. Otherwise, just let me add items to a document and provide a link myself.

It was working very well and i loved using it, nut now suddenly the extension is not working despite refreshing, signing in and out, uninstalling and reinstalling it. I also updated chrome and that didn't fix it either. It was a great tool, hopefully they fix it soon.
