Anyone find you need a list to remember the list?
Hopefully the 4th time I visit the hardware store to rebuild this mailbox I will remember the list of things that helps me remember the things I need.
I made a TODO List Today.

I'm old enough to know I need a shopping list. I'm also old enough to forget the shopping list when I go shopping. Sometimes I can remember some of the things on the list but the next time I go shopping I DO remember the list but I forgot that I bought some of the things on the list. This is why I have a two years supply of pancake syrup.
I was trying to lose weight and my doctor recommended I try chewing gum. So I put that on my shopping list. When I got to the store, I looked at the list and tried to FIND gum in the store. I couldn't find any gum anywhere. My DECADES of ignoring stuff in-line at the cash register would not let me SEE the gum. Three trips to the store with gum on the list before I finally figured it out.

Idk about anybody else but I just use my notes app on my phone for my shopping list.

I don't have a phone.
I use Google Voice at home on the computer. It's FREE. For the last 8 years I have spent ZERO on phones. It's included with my internet.
Just think of all the money you would have if you didn't pay for your phone.

I need to be reachable when I'm out and about but I get it. I've thought about getting a flip phone and just using my smartphone on WiFi at home if I need to but that's about as far as I'd go I think.

Yea, I hear that. I'm retired and my job was on-call 24-7. I have grown to hate phones and NOW I can.

I use a private discord server with just me in it, that way I can enter items from any place.

I buy gum in bulk. It's like half the price per pack. You could probably order it online to save yourself some trouble.

What kinds of gum?

Excel or Dentene. From wholesalers. It's what the stores buy to sell to people at a markup.
