"Smart Shopper" - anyone have this?? (Good Wedding Gift I think)

[JaimeLynne]

They were giving this away today on the Bonnie Hunt Show. Actually it looks pretty neat!! I searched and found it for $99 w/free shipping here: Electronic SmartShopper Grocery List Maker - Unique Gift Ideas

 

Apparently they just dropped the price (I think it used to be about $150 at places like Neiman's).

 

Anyways, I'm kinda bummed cause I already sent out my Xmas list to the family. BUT, this would make a really cool Wedding Gift!

 

*edit* Here's Amazon's Product Review... (where it is available for $79.99! + Free Super Saver Shipping) Amazon.com: SmartShopper SS101 Grocery List Organizer: Home & Garden

Amazon.com Review This nifty organizer from SmartShopper eliminates the need to dig up a pad of paper and a pencil and try to remember what you need when you want to make a shopping list. Keep this handy device stuck to your fridge magnetically, or mount it on the kitchen wall with the included kit, and you're set to go. At breakfast when the milk runs out, simply push the Record button and say "milk." At lunch when you realize you're out of bread, push and speak again. Kids will love helping out. You can also add errands, such as going to the bank or post office. Entries are automatically alphabetized. When you push the Print button, the list is printed with errands at the top and food items by category, to make your shopping expeditions more efficient.   Easy and intuitive to use, the SmartShopper is already loaded with state-of-the-art voice recognition software, a thermal printer that doesn't require ink, and 2,500 item names, for everything from brand-name cereals to antacids to paper towels. Three rolls of thermal paper are included as well. All you need to add are four AA batteries. Arrow buttons allow you to scroll through your list, delete an item if you wish, or add a customized item to the pre-loaded list. With its brushed metal exterior, large LCD window, and front-loading door for paper, the SmartShopper makes a great gift, especially for those who may have trouble writing due to arthritis and other health conditions. --Ann Bieri

That is pretty cool. That is neat that it doesn't use ink since it is thermal paper. What will they think of next

I know.. A lil too expensive for me to justify getting it for myself too - even at Amazon's price of $79.99

I think we'll ask for it for our Wedding though!
