You might wanna check out the up-coming widgity.com

It's a iPhone-only widget/web-app site going online the same time as the
iPhone. :-)

We use Tesco's online service in the UK to buy our groceries. If only this app could integrate with their inventory.

The first time I posted my comment I arrived at an error page. The second time I posted I discovered that the first comment had actually worked.

You have GOT to be kidding with this app!! It is 95% useless. FIRST: You can't even edit or delete any of the built-in Item names... and look at the Items: "CANNED FOOD"?? (as in "Honey don't forget to pick up a can of food!"?) You can't delete that one nor any of the many other such useless Items he's put in there. Has this guy ever actually shopped for food, or anything else? Maybe "Frozen Pizza", "Beer" or "Liquor" (never mind what brand... I guess it's all the same) NEXT: Stop saying you can add items to the Categories because you can't! Oh you can add Items but they do NOT go into the Categories, they go into one catch-all basket called "Saved Items". And they do NOT get saved for the next time like they are Categorized in any way, they're not. So every single item you add is just lumped in with every other item. How long before that list is completely impossible to work with? Almost immediately. NEXT: There's no place for notes or prices or any information that even the most basic Shopping List app should (and does) have. You will never use this app unless you have no idea what you want to buy and only know that you need "Beer" of some kind... For any normal shopper It's completely and utterly useless.

I totally agree with the above comment. Obviously these developers are out of touch with the average shopper. I found the tickedlist.com worked best for me. The mobile part is m.tickedlist.com. It's a good little shopping list, it doesn't limit you to anything and remembers the most frequent items. Also the good thing about this one is that it works fine on my iPhone but my wife has a small screen Nokia and I can share the list and it renders well on both
