The saga of our shopping lists (or more accurately lack of them) has been a long one. We are very good at going to the supermarket and forgetting all those things we think about during the week and then within five minutes of getting home saying "Oh, I remember we needed....."
Apparently other people make shopping lists as they think of things - genius! In truth it is not that we don't know we need to do it, it is the method of list making that is the problem. What ever we try never quite seemed to work. Then along came this gem of an idea on Etsy's Blog as part of their How-Tuesday series - http://www.etsy.com/storque/make/how-tuesday-make-a-hanging-notepad-12635/. Dan and I made one each and that way we have a list for food and one for other stuff. As you can see the other stuff one has been used (hence the ripped end tot he paper) when we went to B&Q today and it performed well!
The beauty of these are that, apart from the rolls of paper (5 for £2.99, they are calculator rolls) everything else was found around the house so the holders themselves cost us nothing. Even better!
