So you are one of those people with a phone glued to your hand?

I use a paper list. I glance at it once or twice in the store to make
sure I haven't forgotten anything. I don't need to hold my phone
constantly and touch a button when it times out. How silly.

I have NEVER seen a person using a phone in any store except for
talking on it. I don't understand that obscession either. I've never
seen one just looking at it, either texting or looking at some silly
e-list. My paper list doesn't lose power....ever. Remember sf had
that "phone losing power" problem when she got her first smart phone.
Didn't she need to carry an extra battery around?
