The Ikan aims to make sure that you never again forget to pick up the milk. When you’ve run out of any item at home, simply scan its bar code under the countertop device and this “grocery-shopping aid” will add it to your list. You can keep scanning bar codes until you’re ready to go to the store or have your groceries delivered. Ikan can also remind you via e-mail of what you need. Price: $349
