Use common sense when shopping for holidays

“‘This may seem to be a fairly basic thing to do, but think of the times you’ve gone grocery shopping and found yourself buying things that weren’t on your grocery list. Holiday displays are even more enticing. Avoid impulse buying…'”

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!
