Speed shopping with RTM

I just moved in with my best friend. We do our shopping together, and we share a grocery list on RTM.

In time, we discovered a new way to do our shopping really quickly.

We go to the supermarket, each of us grabs a cart and take out his smartphone. We load the list in RTM and we go our separate ways to get all the items we need. To avoid buying the same items twice, we use Google Talk and we chat while shopping. We text each other things like "I found the coke", "Is 32 shekels a reasonable price for chicken?" and "There's a sale on chocolate. Do we want?".

Now we get through our shopping twice as fast than before, and we don't even have to split the shopping list in advance.

Whoever gets more than half of the shopping done is the winner of that shopping session, and doesn't have to do dishes that day.

Why not shopping side by side and then talking person to person? Then do the dishes together and enjoy a glass of wine with your buddy.
