Overview

img_0322 Your wife told you to go shopping and when you forgot to get Homogenized milk,  she literally went off her rocker. I'm with you. How can something like that be your fault, milk is milk. Well if you have a grocery list that is not exactly generic then Bazaar Grocery Shopping  is for you. The best part being you can customize your grocery lists, so you never again forget something, or even worse, get the wrong thing. It makes life slightly easier.

Features

  • Create New Lists: Since you downloaded Bazaar Grocery Shopping you now have the ability to create new lists. She simply scrolls through different categories and chooses with absolute simplicity. She is even able to add an obscure item into the list.
  • Create Customized Recipes: Now lets say you are shopping for the BBQ, and she had decided to make Duck in the Muck (not real food). Well she just loaded up the recipe and now you can go find the specific items every time you have a BBQ. If it gets a good response this time, which you doubt.
  • Add Prices: She made the list now she can add the number of Items and the prices to each item so you don't repeat the 1996 Super-bowl fiasco.
  • Sorting: When you finally make it to the store you can sort the list by bought, alphabetical, by group, or your own definition and that makes ou happy. So you start checking the items as they start pouring into the cart.
  • Watch Detailed Tutorial: If you are not so tech savvy you can always watch the detailed tutorial.

The Good

You went back home and didn't have to hear a word because everything was in those grocery bags. Your efficiency has improved and from now on it will be a piece of cake to go shopping. You didn't overpay for anything and you didn't get too much of anything thanks to the features included in the app. Bazaar Grocery shopping is a great app because it lets you avoid the unnecessary drama of life - or life in a supermarket that is. Now sit back and watch everyone make puke faces as they try to swallow the Duck in the Muck.

The Bad

The app does have a few ticks. You have to put in the prices more than once sometimes. She even added a new item that refused to show up on the list. The Ugly I wish Bazaar Grocery Shopping could somehow incorporate the bar code reader, which might just make your life a little easier. It just might make shopping cheaper by giving you different options, and even automatically update your bought items with the price when you tag a bar code.

The Verdict

Bazaar Grocery Shopping does what it says. It is not hard to maneuver and if you had a problem they have a tutorial for that. It's pretty simple but it works like a charm. If you like being organized and on top of things then this is the app for you. It's great to organize parties and big events, as well as just doing day to day grocery shopping. The lists can be reused and chances are you will keep updating them in slight ways to keep changing your taste.
