back to the regularly scheduled comment thread.

nice office space reference

Grocery gadget is better IMO. A little more task specific but great for sharing with the wife and having her push data even real time. And no bs annual fee's.

Hands-down, the best (and very FREE) grocery app I've come across is "Grocery iQ".

With Grocery iQ you can manually input any item you like (if you're not into grocery lists, just use it as a standard To-Do application). For groceries, however, there are a LOT of options that you can input -- weight, sizes, packaging, isles, store, etc.

There is also a method to manually enter the UPC via keypad to have the product information auto-populate. Or, use the iPhone camera to automatically scan the bar code (UPC) for an even faster method.

At our house, when we run out of something we simply use Grocery iQ to scan the product. I have my list set to "share" and my wife has "subscribed" to my list -- so any change either one of us makes automatically updates in "the cloud" and we both have the same list data.

The coolness doesn't stop there. Grocery iQ can specify what isles your grocery items are located in, and it can also specify what stores have that product -- so if you want to find the fasted/cheapest route/prices to make your shopping quickest/least expensive then you'll have the tools needed.

As an added bonus -- all of this is FREE!!! It's kind of add-supported. I say 'kind of' only because the ads aren't your traditional ads... they're small markers that indicate an available coupon for certain products. They're extremely non-instrusive and cover up nothing (they're like small badges that appear near your product listing. So, if you've scanned the UPC on the back of your bag of dog food you might be surprised to see a coupon for that brand, or a similar brand. You don't see the offer/coupon until you click on the coupon badge, so as I said before it's extremely non-intrusive.

Adding groceries with the camera scanner is so easy, and the fact that any changes sync up with everyone in the family we're no longer having those "honey, I'm at the grocery store -- is there anything we need" conversations (I could never remember anything when she called anyway).

And that $25 a year does not get you time zone support. Leave your home time zone and all of your do dates get messed up.

Why not use simplenote which is free?

And to think I write my grocery list in the notes app.

I almost gagged when I saw that they want $25/year for reminders that I do now for free with iCal. This is simply insane.

I use calendar, a subscription free app, to nag me about things I need to do or remember.
