I would love a way to just put several items into a field and have search return
me all the stores that sell every item listed. It is extremely time consuming
to search for one item and then go through each store to find the next and continue
to narrow down the list that way. An alternative is just have search return a
list of stores selling one item and then offer an option to search the listed
stores for another item and etc.

How are people currently doing such searches? Perhaps there is a system to better
manage this.

It exists, viewing your wanted list, click tab above 'By store', it will give
you the store with the most items on your list.

I like this approach.
