Personally, I have never needed to use a grocery list on my Palm. Because of this, I do not know which one is the best. Just go to one of the main software sites and search for something like "Grocery List." Then, read the descriptions and try out the ones that you think look like possibilites. If you don't like one, just delete it and try another. Here are some of the main freeware and software sites:

http://www.palmpilotarchives.com
http://www.palmgear.com
http://www.tucows.com
http://www.palmblvd.com
http://www.download.com
http://www.palm.com

Hope this helps.

You could use the To Do application for your list. It come withe the palm.

Handy Shopper is a brilliant shopping list programme and it is freeware. It is also possible to use it for a lot of other uses. For instance as well as a shopping list I use it for a packing list, for medical definitions for my job, for regular accounts that need paying and much more.

It is a very popular programme and there is even a Yahoo mailing list for users.

You can find it on the software page at Palmgear.com (click on the link in the post above). Enter "Handy Shopper" in the search field and you will find it.

Handy Shopper gets my vote also. Earlier versions were simpler and if you can find one they use less memory and are very good.

The basic concept is that you build a list of items you typically buy and that list is constructed under the heading of "ALL". When you have need of one of these items it is checked in the ALL list but then you swith to the "NEED" while at the sore. THere is more but that is the bottom line.

I agree, it does take a bit of figuring out but it is worth the effort because there are just so many ways you can use it. It is limited only by your imagination.

I found the best way was to print out the instructions in the "readme.txt" and spend a bit of time studying these.

It may also be helpful to go to yahoo.com and do a search for the Handyshopper mail list. There may be some helpful information in the archives. You don't need to be a member of the list to read the archives.
