Can a household answer once for everyone?

Yes. This template lets each answer bring up to six guests.

Who sees what people are bringing?

Only you and anybody helping you run the page. The answers to your question are in the spreadsheet on your private link, not on the page.

Do neighbours need an account?

No. They open the link, answer, and that's it. An email is optional and brings a reminder the day before.
