<h3>Here’s how it works:</h3>
When a customer clicks on the remove icon next to an item in their shopping cart, they will be asked if they want to save for later. They will have two options:
1. Click yes, which will move the item to a new location—their saved cart 
2. Click no, which will remove it entirely

When a customer clicks yes, the item will immediately move from their shopping cart to their saved cart.

A customer can see the list of items available in their saved cart just below the cart total. Whenever they want, they can move the item back to their shopping cart for purchase or delete it from the saved list.

When a user clicks move to cart next to a saved item, the item will move to the shopping cart and no longer be in the saved cart. Here’s an example:

Recently moved item from saved cart to shopping cart.
