My Shopping List


In each of the Froogle pages you will find the My Shopping List link located in the top right-hand corner of the page. You need a Google account to use this feature. If you don’t have a Google account, you can create one from the Froogle My Shopping List home page.

The Froogle My Shopping List feature is useful for all online shoppers. This feature is for true shoppers. When you consider purchasing a product but are not ready to buy it yet, My Shopping List keeps track of those products. You can add notes to the products or create a wish list to send to your family and friends so they know what to get you!

One important thing to know is that you can keep your shopping list private but still send your wish list to everyone. Because maintaining a shopping list requires that you log into your Google account, you can access your list from any Internet-connected computer.

Manage your shopping list by sorting the list items by price, by the date you added the item to the list, or in convenient alphabetical order.

Once you sign in to your Google account the My Shopping List page opens (see Figure 8.9). Find shopping list navigations links located on the left side of the page. They are divided into the following four parts:

  • View: You can view My Shopping List or My Wish List.

  • Sort by: Sort your list by Date added, Price: low to high, Price: high to low, and Title.

  • Search for other items: Type the product name you want to search on Froogle.

  • Find a Wish List: Type the e-mail address of your friends and family to see their wish lists.

To add an item to My Shopping List, log in to your Google account and follow these steps:

  1. Go to Froogle’s home page (www.froogle.com).

  2. Type the product name, and click Search.

  3. When you find the product you want to add, click the Add to Shopping List link located on the search results page next to the product description.

Note 

You can add products to My Shopping List only when Froogle is displaying results in the List View.

After clicking the Add to Shopping List link, Froogle launches the My Shopping List page and the item you added will then appear. On the right side of the page you see a product image (if one is available). You also see the product name (with a link to the store where you can purchase it) and beneath that, the price, the store name, and a brief description of the product, as shown in Figure 8.10.

You can add a personal note to the product by clicking the edit link next to Notes. Type your note, and then click Save. Your notes are visible in your wish list as well. To add items to your Wish List, select the In Wish List checkbox.

To help you better manage your list, keeping it current, you can see the date you added products to your list. To delete a product from the shopping list click the Delete link.

You can add as many products as you want, but you are only able to view ten items at one time.
