I had the same problem as you, what helped me was to install Selenium IDE and extract the "Xpath Position" the position is not dynamic as long as the button does not change the position on the page. Hope that this helps you.Screenshot

To make it more accurate, you can use starts-with() instead of contains(), since your IDs are starting with specific string.

You can use : //*[starts-with(@id, 'gritter-item-')]

Try using the below xpath where we use contains keyword.

//*[contains(@id, 'gritter-item-')]
