The SmartShopper: Because Writing Down Grocery Lists Is So 20th Century


If pen and paper are your mortal enemies, this glorious age of convenience has many solutions for you. In this case, instead of writing your grocery list on a piece of paper, you dictate it to this little Smartshopper gizmo and it spits out a receipt for you. I guess I can think of some practical uses, but it’s still a little bit Skymall.

Keep in mind that it prints on thermal paper, which is very rich in BPA, so wash your hands before touching the apples at the store or cooking for the kids, okay?

Update: Smartshopper has contacted me to assure me they use BPA-free thermal paper. Good for you guys!
