I keep piece of scrap paper on the counter and a ball point pen. Then when I go to get groceries, I grab the piece of paper off the counter. I don't like being glued to my phone more than I have to be.
I use Evernote. It has an easy checklist function (with check boxes for when I put the items in the cart), and it's also useful for regular note taking as well.
I use the paid Out Of Milk, I use to like Grocery IQ, the UI's worlds better and it's a nice app. But there's just something about it that rubs me the wrong way.
I use an app called oi shopping list. Its not pretty, but it works well enough for a shopping list, mostly because I can tap an item and then shake my phone to clear it from the screen. Been looking for something better like maybe keep, but I keep using this for its simplicity.
I'll write it up on the desktop, and make use of check boxes. I've got my notebooks synced.
I've thought about trying other programs, but I just don't see the point. OneNote works perfectly for this task, and I use it for other general note taking as well as idea compilation/storyboarding for potential future projects I'd like to eventually get to work on.
I got into it with college courses and used it extensively for actual "notebook" replacement - at least, for classes where a laptop was convenient.
You can set it up to share with anyone else. So my wife and I add stuff to the list as we go and then regardless of who does the shopping, we have the list handy. Plus it's free.
I do too, I like that you can setup a GPS reminder. So when you happen to be driving by the store you can make it remind you to run in and get stuff. Rather than a standard time based reminder which usually fires while I'm at work.
I used to like Any.do before Keep added reminders.
