We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Ooh, I'm checking that out!! Always looking for a way to slim down my wallet! (although I would be happy if it were FAT WITH CASH!!!)

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Grocery IQ, tiggy. There's also a tablet version, which I just downloaded. I hadn't realised.

Red Laser is a good one for the iphone. I thought they also had an android version.

Red Laser doesn't seem to be the same thing. Grocery IQ is a (pretty rich) shopping list app, which also lets you add stuff via barcode scanning. RedLaser seems to be much more product oriented.

What I'd really like is a Grocery IQ Locale plug in, so I could tell it which stores have what, and where. So it could bring up a Ralph's shopping list automatically whenever I went into my usual ones. And TJ's etc. Although the location isn't good enough to tell one store from the one nextdoor so far.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Hmm. I tried to use Grocery IQ years ago and I just couldn't do it. I'd rather just put out a list and go shopping.

Well, you don't have to scan. Without the barcoding it's not more onerous than any other list app I've ever used (and with it, barely even). What about it was so bad?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

because I think the app was not organized the way I think, if that makes any sense. I'm finding that is true with a lot of apps that I buy and then cannot use.

I still haven't found my task list app for that reason. But I'm much more particular about everyday things like to dos than grocery lists.
