A shopping list holder having a novel method of fastening the holder on a vertical rod of a child seat on a standard shopping cart. The method of fastening permits the list holder to be positioned at two distinct angles of repose. The angle of reponse that is more accessible by the user is selected merely by choosing whether to fasten the list holder around a vertical rod from the right to left or from left to right. The use of magnetic strips enables the holder to be stored on a refrigerator or other metal surface to keep the list holder readily available for use at home.
