[quote=Anonymous]We have a white board on the fridge with a shopping list.  If anything is getting low (not out, but low), we put it on the list.  We tend to buy extras, so if you take the last bar of soap, you put it on the list.  If the laundry detergent bottle is light, you put it on the list.  If there are only two eggs left when you take one,  you put it on the list.  Whenever anyone goes shopping (and we both shop, depending on who is doing that day), then we take a photo of the list on the fridge to take with us.  When you put away groceries, you erase the things you bought.  If for some reason, you didn't get something (like some products we buy are only at a certain store), then you leave it on the list for the next shopping run.

It works fine.  I've also gotten to the store when I realized that I forgot the list or decide to stop at the store on the way home, then I text my wife and ask her to send me the list.  She takes a photo and texts it to me and I have the shopping list.  We keep recyclable shopping bags in both cars so we always have some for a trip if needed.

Try this.  It works well since we alternate chores and there is no regular pattern to when we shop.[/quote]
