The shopping list view is a feature to help you manage your inventory and also keep track of items to purchase for your next trip to the store.  From here you can make a shopping list, set prices for the list, print out your shopping list and print the shopping list for a trip to the store.  You can also select items to add to your inventory once you purchase them and even add an entire recipe to the shopping list in one shot.
