Over at The Morning News: “A ‘collector, maker, and breaker of things,’ since 1997 Bill Keaggy has amassed a collection of over 700 grocery lists. Francis Raven talks with him about his collecting habits and why it is that nobody can spell ‘bannana‘ ‘bananna‘ ‘banana.'”

What is this insanity?

This is the world's largest collection of found grocery lists. In fact, we wrote the book on found grocery lists.
Why? Other peoples' grocery lists are fascinating. Plus, the internet is a great place to do  stupid  interesting things. So far 3,800 funny, crazy, weird, sad and/or mundane discarded scraps of paper have been posted. But it's not all useless stuff—we also link to useful and interesting articles about food, shopping, lists, collecting, and more, as well as provide a pretty awesome downloadable PDF grocery list for free.

Buy the book


Originally released as a hardcover in 2007, the book based on this site went out-of-print after our appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Happily, it's been re-released in paperback with a new cover. It's rated 4.5 stars on Amazon, so just go ahead and buy it already!
