> it's hard for the human brain to validate that the 20 things in my cart are the same as the 20 items in the list

In this age of smart-everything, there's no help for that?

Seems strange.

Further, to make things even less difficulty, I'd think it'd be rather straight-forward to map out the select stores they go to in the extremely small set of markets they serve. Certainly considering this is their profession, no?

They could make an app for that.

Some stores change their layouts around occasionally, mostly when new product comes in that needs space. I've seen at larger chains where nearly the entire grocery department switches overnight. I don't know if Trader Joes or Whole Foods does this, but that's something to take into consideration if you're mapping products.
