[lug] Call for speakers - BLUG 2014

[William D. Knoche]

We solved this with the Android app "Out of Milk".
These days  we all have our smartphone and the app includes a bar code 
scanner and online db and of course is free (though after a few months 
of use they come begging for donations or upgrade to paid version which 
we will probably do since we find it so useful).
We have several shopping lists for each of the stores we frequent and 
the list can be shared realtime.
