Remember the milk, to buy it or to drink it?

sjackwu says:

I saw an old post on the forum and it reminds me something. There are several Traditional Chinese blogs talking about RTM and they refer RTM as "remember (to drink) the milk".

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that it should be "remember (to buy) the milk"?

Perhaps it's not a big deal. You might want to put more context into the sentence, or have some explanation on the website?

sjackwu, thanks for letting us know. Would it be possible to let us know the translation if the tagline says 'Never forget to buy the milk (or anything else) again.'? We'd like to make it as clear as possible if the sentence is ambiguous. Thanks! :)

不會再忘記買牛奶了!
(或是其他東西...)

'Never forget to buy the milk (or anything else) again.'

Glad to be able to help. Made some adjustment to make it read nicer..
