Just What I Wanted

I have longed for an app that could hold the myriad of things I come across on the internet that I would like to purchase at some point. I already use the 24-hour chill period but being able to save these items from the browser is a dream come true. It is very useful to be able to time a reminder for 24 or 48 hours (or whenever) in the event of a sale or other reason not to forget to execute the purchase.

I am also using it to store items of long-term interest because just storing bookmarks doesn’t work well because I can’t remember what each bookmark is for and having to open each one to check is not efficient.

Using this app frees up the brain space that trying to remember the items takes, especially great for ADDers.

My future update/requests are to be able to customize my mood/reasons for adding it to the list and to have a white background.
