Shopping Register

One place for everything you need to buy — DIY materials, gift card spends, one-off purchases — so nothing lives only as a “buy X” dangling off a task. Surfaced by daily-tick when there’s a trip-worthy item or a gift card about to expire.

Just add a line — no format, no order, no need to say what it’s for. I’ll tidy them into the sections below and remove them once you’ve bought them.

Rules

  • Items appear here when a task’s next action is “buy X” — the tracker keeps the doing, this keeps the buying.
  • Trip-worthy = would justify a shop run on its own; group several MED/LOW items into one run.
  • Gift cards get flagged 30 days before expiry (or immediately if expiry unknown).
  • Done = delete the row (house convention).
