Instead of built-in many-to-many relationship, use some home-made one. class Item(models.Model): name = models.CharField(maxlength=32)
class ItemList(models.Model): name = models.CharField(maxlength=32) class ItemList_Item(models.Model): quantity = models.IntegerField() item = model.ForeignKey(Item) itemlist = model.ForeignKey(ItemList) You won't be able to use the default admin widget for Many to many selection (at least without some template ant javascript hacking), but you'll have what you want.
