Initializing, please wait a moment

Add each item as you run low - type it and hit Enter, or tap the Add item button, to drop it on the shopping list.

    No items yet. Add your first one above.

    Your shopping items live only on this device and are never sent to a server. Use Export backup before wiping browser data or shopping from a different machine.

    Grocery List


    Build your shopping list before a store run - add each item as you notice you are running low, tick things off as they land in the cart, and remove what you no longer need.

    The Grocery List tool is handy as a quick grocery checklist for the household when you would rather not install an app or create a sign in.


    Key features

    • Add each item as you run low, then check it off once it is in the cart.
    • Every grocery item shows a checkbox for marking it bought and a delete button.
    • Export backup writes the whole list to a JSON file, and Import backup reads it back.
    • No app to install and no account or sign in to create.

    When to use it

    Reach for it for the weekly shop or a quick top-up run, when a shared household list beats scattered notes. Because storage never travels to another browser on its own, use Export backup and Import backup to move the list to the family tablet or a fresh browser.


    How your list is stored

    Your list is kept on this single browser, tucked into its local storage, which means a mid-shop reload will not lose your ticked-off items - only clearing this site's browser data empties the cart.

    The backup file is created and opened right on your device, so no shopping list is ever sent to a server and nothing syncs in the background.

    Not sure whether to stick with this in-browser list or switch to a dedicated shopping app? The trade-offs are weighed up in Grocery List vs desktop apps and online services.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does my list survive closing the tab or restarting the browser?

    Yes. Items are held in this browser's local storage, so the list is still there after a reload or restart. It clears only when you delete items yourself or wipe this site's browser data, and it does not sync to other devices.

    Do I need an account, and does anything upload?

    No account and no upload. The list is built and stored on this device only, so it works offline once the page has loaded.

    Is there a companion tool for daily routines?

    The habit tracker works the same browser-local way for routines you tick off, and both keep their data on this device with no sign-in.
