    It is handy in To Do that you can add a reminder for each "item", but I tend to lean towards Keep. I like that I can set two "levels" of items so I can have Cold Stuff, Dry Goods, Non-Grocery, etc.

    I use it for that reason. I have list specific to each grocery store and sorted by Aisle so it's convenient for me to get the item. For example I have a list called "Kroger Groceries" and in their I'll have one that says "Aisle 4 - Peanut Butter" and so on. It's sorted so it makes it easy for me to get in and get out.

    I love Microsoft To-Do for work, thanks to Leila's earlier CZcams a few years ago. I loved it so much it caused me to abandon any.do for personal, and instead, I got Todoist, since To-Do wouldn't integrate with gmail, and which I now like even better than To-Do.
    However, as I much as I like To-Do, and Leila, not for a grocery list. I have a Dropbox Paper list of all the near-term and long-term things we buy, shared between my wife and I, and organized my isle at the store. When we need something, I just check it on the list. So less typing week to week. At the store, I just open it, and grab.
    We used to do the list in Evernote, but Evernote has gone downhill for free users (which my wife has) so that is why we switched to Dropbox Paper.
    If it is something unique, I will usually add via the app of the grocery store, where I also identify sale items every week. If I am making a special recipe, I'll have it in RecipeSage and it can create a grocery list for me.

    This video should have begun with an illustration of the inadequacies of Outlook or Excel to manage whatever it is that "ToDo" manages. For instance "Have you ever been trying to use Outlook to manage your to-do list and run into THIS situation?" with a screenshot of the monitor of someone trying to do something, and then running into a wrinkle that Outlook can't manage. And then say "SO, that's why Microsoft invented 'ToDo'". Absent that, someone like me is just going to ask "WHY do I NEED this?".

      There needs to be a strong skepticism that any new application must overcome. More and more, these products are being engineered by focus-groups who TO DATE have never been computer people. This is because manufacturers put the acquisition of new customers above loyalty to existing customers. We're seeing products get dumber and dumber because the intent is to capture new consumers who are not ALREADY computer-oriented people, because computer-oriented people are ALREADY in the fold. Think of cars: when people who didn't want to know how to drive weren't buying cars, manufacturers invented the automatic transmission so that people who didn't know how to drive a car could drive a car without learning how to drive a car. So the real driver lost the extra flexibility and control that comes with a standard transmission. Computer products are going down the same bad road, being dumbed-down to appeal to consumers whose mentality is increasingly estranged from the intellectual activity of modeling the world with data. Soon all human skills will be lost, as computers relieve us of all necessity to think (once we let them get away with automatic transmissions how can we stop driverless cars and a generation of people who won't be able to take over the wheel when the software fries out), and when we run into something in the real world that doesn't match the "defaults" hard-wired into a computer, we won't be able to get around it.
