REVIEW & GIVEAWAY – Smart Shopper

Do you ever go to the grocery store and then can’t find the list you’ve been putting together all week long? You know it’s somewhere in your purse on a napkin or random piece of paper – or is it still sitting on the counter or by the phone at home? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to the grocery store forgetting my list at home.

I’d like to introduce to you the Smart Shopper. It’s AWESOME! All it takes is some paper (specialized for your model) and 4 AA batteries. You simply press the RECORD button and speak the name of the item you need to buy from the store. It will then pull up a list of items for you to choose from. You use the up and down buttons to select the item you want to add. Then push SELECT and it will add the item to your list.

If you find that there is an item you need to get that isn’t on your list, simply click on the SELECT button, scroll down to the LIBRARY MANAGEMENT button, and click on ADD ITEM TO LIBRARY. Spell out the item you need to get and as you say each letter, select the letter that is highlighted. Once you are done, say FINISH and push SELECT. You will then be prompted to press RECORD and speak the word. Once it is entered, you will select a category for it to fall into. It’s as simple as that!

Once your grocery list is put together, simply push the PRINT button and out comes your shopping list. Your grocery list is itemized into categories such as Baby Products, Snacks, Paper Products, Canned Goods, and so on. Stick the list in your wallet and you’re ready to go!

Another bonus is that you can hang it on your refrigerator, so you always know where it is and it’s easy to get to.
Smart Shopper Electronics has generously offered to give away 1 Smart Shopper (model # SS 101) to one lucky reader.

  1. I’d like to win because I ALWAYS forget something at the market and this would ensure that I would always remember what I need because it prints out my list!

  2. one time or another I am ALWAYS forgetting one item or more when I got grocery shopping. this would help me so much and be very convenient.

    Thank you,

    killmerfam04 (at) gmail (dot) com

  3. I’m not much of a gadget lover but this one caught my attention – I always forget one item on my list or worse forget my list…. would like to try it!

  4. i want to win because im a gadget freak, i make a list every time i go to store otherwise i forget. so enter me i would loveeee to win

  5. I a the person that goes to the store for something will leave with three or four things except what I went for in the first place! Help lol!!!

  6. MOMFOREVERANDEVER

    try to do all the shopping once or twice a month and this would help everyone easily put down when things run out..just not remember we need or make a post it note here or there///////where is there? somewhere

  7. MOMFOREVERANDEVER

    ok seriously I love going into the deli and looking at all the cheeses they have- and looking at the fresh pasta on the wall..I guess pasta would be my favorite thing to shop for when the store has a selection..it can be so much fun.. I know silly- I love the colors of the farmers markets and shopping for fresh produce when its fresh

  8. I am constantly changing my grocery shopping list. By the time I get ready to go shopping my list is a total mess with crossed out items, items written down in the margins of my paper. Lots of times, I miss items because the list is so hard to read with all the changes. I could really use one of these!

  9. My favorite thing to shop for is snack foods. I know it’s not the greatest thing for me, but it is one of the small luxuries I allow myself. I look for new cookies or cupcakes.

  10. I’d love to win this amazing organizational tool! My mind is always frazzled and I can never remember everything I need at the store. This is just the neatest device and I really love the way it organizes everything into categories.

  11. I always end up going back to the opposite end of the store i ended up on b/c I didn't organize my list & forgot something – love the categories that print.

  12. I woul love to win this because I always go to the grocery store and then look at my list and there are usually a few items that I cannot read because my scrawl is so bad. WIth a printed list, it would go much easier.

  13. OK this is funny I found this contest, I went to the grocery store with my list in my purse or so I thought. I got there, and couldn’t find my list. I get home only to find out my list was in my bag all along. I think I need help!

  14. This would help me get more organize and reduce the return trips to the grocery store for thing I forgot.

    abfantom (at) yahoo (dot) com

  15. It would help me be more organized and would be great to have when looking at the weekly grocery ads to make sure I take advantage of the sales.

  16. I would like to win this to help me become more organized. Also, so that I can get everything I need at once instead of going to the store 2 or 3 times per week because I forgot something.

  17. I would love to have a gizmo that would organize my list for me. I end up running all over the store because my list is out of order.

  18. I don’t know if it is my “favorite” thing, but the most common things that I buy at the grocery are supplies for lunches… meat, bread, pretzels, bananas, yogurt, cereal bars…

  19. I am that someone with the list scribbled on a scrap of paper that I sometimes cannot find in my purse, that is if I remember to take the list with me or if everything I need is on that list which is questionable. I would love this because you can add to it as you go along, and it goes on the fridge; what could be better than opening the fridge to see what you need and putting it right in. Then all I have to do is remember to grab it when I leave. I love this! Thank you so very much!

  20. I would like to win this so I could give it to my daughter. I just recently got one, and so far it is working just great, and is so much better than a pad and paper!

  21. Help!! I need the SmartShopper because I’m fed up with my current mode of grocery lists ~~ scraps and wadded-up pieces of paper, magazines, and post-it notes with illegible scribbles on them! lol! Thank you for the contest!
    txgigggles@yahoo.com

  22. We live in the mountains so it’s almost an hour’s drive to a good grocery store; we limit that trip to once a month. My list gets pretty long and while I try to organize it, someone’s always tacking stuff onto the list in the wrong spot. That keeps me running back and forth between aisles in the store. The Smart Shopper would help a lot to prevent that. asthenight at gmail dot com

  23. I have fibromyalgia, Ruemetoid Arthritis and Hepititis….yea lots of pain. So anything that can help save me some pain is great Since writing isn’t easy for me anymore this would make my shopping list so much easier to do.

    dove42(at)comcast(dot)net

  24. This would be great since I’m always grabbing scrap paper to write on. With my husband and I switching to healthier food I’m going to forget a lot at the store now since it’s not what I normally get.

    samsakara@twcny.rr.com

  25. I love grocery shopping for bargains I love comparison shopping and using coupons knowing that I’m getting the best for as little as possible. Because things are tight everywhere and I still want to feed my family the best I can.

    dove42(at)comcast(dot)net

  26. This would help de-clutter my purse with no more paper lists and hopefully help me remember everything I need to get! Thanks for the terrific giveaway!

  27. I would love to have one of these because Im always forgetting something because I dont have all my items listed in order! Thanks for the chance!

  28. I need to win this as being a new mom with a short attention span (it’s always focused on the baby and baby related issues and then house work oh wait baby is awake!) I am constantly making lists and writing things down as I remember them, however I misplace my lists so I have one scrap of paper with ketchup, hamburger, milk, cheese, eggs another scrap of paper with cereal, yogurt, potatoes, and two other sheets of paper with what I could remember from the first two, however I have misplaced them by then and I can only remember ketchup and milk?!?!? So in the end this would help me get my shopping lists organized….as long as I don’t misplace it! Then I can head on over to the supermarket…NOW where did I put my keys??? 🙂

  29. My favorite item to buy from the grocery store are Strawberries…especially when they are in season and LOCAL!! So Yummy!

  30. I want to win one so that I can be more organized with my grocery shopping, and hopefully save more money. Thanks for the giveaway!

  31. I would love to win this because it’s inevitable that I will forget to use the coupons I have for products I’m buying. And because I usually wind up rewriting the grocery list 2 or 3 times – this would save me from doing that. Thank you! guill888 at yahoo dot com

  32. My favorite thing to buy at our grocery store is their bakery rolls. They are always so fresh and wonderful. guill888 at yahoo dot com

  33. Princess Golden Hair

    since losing his job my husband has become a househusband. while he’s in the training stages he can use all the help he can get and SmartShopper automated grocery list organizer can help him when he’s getting ready to do the grocery shopping.

  34. I’d like to win this so I can be more organized. I’d like to only have to make 1 trip to the store a week. I like that it doesn’t need ink cartridges. Thanks for the chance.

    sweetascandy579 at yahoo dot com

  35. We are always forgetting something at the store that didn’t make it on the list, so this would be great! Thanks! thebubbledies(at)gmail(dot)com

  36. I want one badly. I’m a single mom, full time teacher, part time college student and I’d forget my …(you know what) if it weren’t attached. I NEED HELP.

  37. I often forget what I need from the store since I usually also forget my list at home. This could be a great reminder!

    orchestratenoise0726[at]yahoo[dot]com

  38. I could use this because I am so absent minded that I am constantly misplacing the list, most times I just try to remember what I need when I’m in the grocery store that I end up forgetting major staples like milk and bread. Thanks for a great giveawy!

  39. I would love to win this so I never forget anything at the store again! I love that you can just print your list and go.

    miranda_e19[at]yahoo[dot]com

  40. I would love to win this because I tend to always forget things when I go to the store and sometimes it’s a hassle to make out a list, this would be so easy to be able to put in what I need and print it out. Thanks so much for such a wonderful giveaway!

  41. This handy item would help me organize my grocery list in a timely manner and it would be neat and when I send a list with one of my grown kids they could read the printed list lots better than my writing :)lol.:) The Feature I heart the best is the Built-in printer that requires no ink cartridges :)ty 4 the awesome giveaway and entry:)

  42. I would LOVE to win this because when I am making dinner I always mean to right down the item that I just used the last of but never do and then forget when I am making my grocery list. This would be great so that I just have to quickly add it to my list and never forget again.

  43. I’ve wanted one of these since I first saw them. I’m an organizational nightmare and I think one of these would be very helpful to me.

  44. wow these are neat, i would love to have one, i make a list now and leave it at home forgetten it this i could put in my purse all the time and not leave it at home. thanks for the giveaway.

  45. i don’t know how many times I forget items while I am at the store and have to make yet another trip. This would help me so I can remember all those items and stay a little bit organized.
    yzgirl4[at]verizon[dot]net

  46. I would love to win this so that I can organize my shopping lists better. We go to multiple stores with coupons, and it’s hard sometimes to remember what all to get, and what coupons to use.. and for some reason paper shopping lists are a bit difficult. lol Thank you so much for offering this giveaway! eyeslikesugar [at] gmail [dot] com

  47. I want it because it would be such an improvement over my store-specific pieces of paper with my shopping list scrawled in (almost) illegible scribble.

  48. Thanks for the contest. I could use this because since I’ve had the baby I’ve gone from pregnesia to momnesia and I’m always forgetting things.

  49. I could really use this, I’m always forgetting to pick up something when shopping. I could make a list all week and print it off and go, this would be great!
    lgrieser(at)sbcglobal(dot)net

  50. I would love to win this because I forget things every single time I go to the supermarket, this would make my life so much easier. Plus, I love the fact that it has a built in printer, no ink cartridges, that rocks!

  51. texasheartland

    It would be so nice to have an ORGANIZED list instead of a list that unorganized and what’s the point of using the list when you can’t read it?

    texas_heartland84[at]yahoo[dot]com

  52. Seems I’m always forgetting things I need to get. This would be great to remind me.

    The SmartShopper is a busy mother’s dream come true! I am the one who needs this SmartShopper! With 3 young children, one being 5 months old, 2 dogs and a husband who counts as 2 people (LOL) I am forever getting to the grocery store or department store and forgetting to get something one of my family members told me to get. I have had to go back to the store on more occasions than I care to think about because I forgot to purchase something crucial that someone absolutely had to have! This would make my life so much easier and my shopping so much for efficient if I had this very nifty gadget! I would also be much more organized in my visits to the grocery store and have some peace of mind! Thank you so much for the opportunity to enter.

  54. joannaonthelake

    My favorite item to purchase at the grocery store is fruit, specifically Strawberries! We use them to make fruit smoothies, eat them plain, or add them to fresh Greek yogurt! Fruit is where I like to provide my family with sugar, natural sugar and we rarely keep cookies, candy or baked goods in the house, and the kids and my husband love fresh fruit!
    joannaonthelake@gmail.com

  55. Hubby’s hobby is cooking, so he likes to do the grocery shopping as well. He tries to be organized (last shopping trip he lost the list)and this would be a nice surprise for him because he has been laid off work (auto industry in MI) and I’m sure this nice surprise would lift his spirits!
    harmonden[at]wowway[dot]com

  56. This would be great for my parents. My dad does all the grocery shopping and he always comes back with the wrong items. Diet cola, salt free soups, etc. that no one in their home eats. This would be an awesome way for mom to organize their lists.

  57. I’ve never been good at making a regular list of items as they get low or run out, so when I go to the store its somewhat of a memory game. I try to make lists…but it would be wonderful to have one location and be able to list that item immediately while I’m thinking about it. It would organize my shopping and cut down on impulse purchases too!

    Bottom line…it would be a money saver.

  58. My favorite item to get when I go shopping has to be cheese. I love so many types of cheese. I use it with eggs, cheese sandwiches, salads, melted over home fries, mixed in mashed potatoes, an ingredient in biscuits, in burritos,etc.etc.

    Yes…CHEESE is a #1 item on my grocery list.

  59. I want to win it because I just do not have enough time in my day (or chosen time) to make list after list. The Smart Shopper would save me time, save me paper, save me from walking aisle after aisle and save me from frustration and stress. Great gadget!!

  60. I would like to win a SmartShopper because I scribble lists and sometimes can’t even read them myself.

  61. Wow, what a handy idea–I bet you actually save money since it’s already pre-printed..less deviation and extra shopping! I always forget my list on my counter–argh! I love to shop for fresh vegetables…the textures, the smells, the tastes of the season all make shopping less of a chore and more of a delight! Thanks for the opportunity!

  62. I would love this to help me keep my grocery list organized in one place. I have little notes scattered everywhere

  63. I may not always forget my list but in a family with 4 kids, I may not know what should be on my list. This way the kids and my husband can add their own items and I can print on my way out the door.

  64. I like how the grocery list is itemized into categories – I have to have a list or I forget

    tiramisu392 (at) yahoo.com

  65. I would love to win because I am so sick of starting five different shopping lists and then leaving them at home, in the car, in my other coat pocket, etc.! This would be such a great way to keep my shopping list handy and organized.

  66. I love coupons and this would help me be more organized in the grocery store!

  67. I would like to win the Smart Shopper because I wouldn’t forget what I needed from the grocery store. Just type it in and when I’m ready to go shopping, just print out my list. No more of those notes that get left at home or can’t find when I get ready to leave home. Thanks for this giveaway.

  68. How many things can I say I love about the smart shopper and I want one so bad, all of them. I have teens and their favorite thing is to tell me when I’m busy what they need or want from the store and my number one saying in my house is:
    GO WRITE IT ON THE SHOPPING LIST..
    which is hanging on our fridge. They never do, so we’re at the store and needless to say it doesn’t get purchased. My husbands comment if I send him to the store I didn’t see that wrote on the list. This would save my family nightmares, as it seems so simple even my husband could do it.
    Oh please make me a winner and save my grocery shopping sanity.
    Thank you

  69. My household could definitely use the ‘SmartShopper’! My wife and I are constantly making extra trips back to Wal-Mart to pick-up things we forget to add to our weekly grocery list: coffee creamer, snacks for kids’ lunches, pet food, etc., etc., etc……..This would ‘absoulutely’ be a ‘dream win’ for us! Please, include us both in your giveaway drawing! Thanks and good luck to all!

  70. I’d love to win so that I would no longer have to try to keep up with a couple of scraps of paper with needed items jotted down, perhaps I’d also actually make it home with everything I need…trinitygsd at yahoo dot com

  71. I would love this so we can all add to the list as we notice something instead of forgetting to write it down – no more having to find a pencil.

  72. I would love to win because this wonderful gadget will help me save money by insuring that I get everything I need on the first trip to the store.

  73. I need one because I have so many lists that I have started for my grocery shopping, but never use. THank you.

    candieluster(at)gmail(dot)com

  74. ZESTYWONDERLAND

    My shooping list are often written all over the sales ads or I forget them at home. I wind up implusing buying. I spend more money & still forget things.

    I could truly use this awesome little gadget!

    zestywonderland@gmail.com

  75. we are forever forgetting the list OR we don’t get everything we needed because one or more of the items wasn’t on THAT list… Normally there are a few lists around because we write down on whatever paper we have.. it’s sad

  76. Because I always have a grocery list that I end of forgetting at home somehow!
    Thanks

    believedreamcourage (at) gmail.com

  77. I always try to write down what we need when I discover we are low on things. The biggest problem is that I have a bunch of little notes stashed around and something doesn’t get put on the master list before I go out for errands. Speaking my list items in this would uncomplicate my life tremendously! Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway!

  78. I want to win this because it would make grocery shopping a pleasure( well kinda) for a change and I like that it hangs on the fridge, so handy. skyxsky27(at)gmail.com

  79. I’d love to win this ‘cuz I always seem to forget at least one thing when I go to the store. Maybe this’ll help avoid that nonsense.
