shopping list pads

Common shopping list pad sizes include 3.5 x 9 in, 3 x 3 in, 4 x 6 in, and 2.9 x 5.7 in.

Sheet counts vary by product. Common per-pad counts include 40, 45, 60, 70, and 100 sheets.

Two common options are full magnetic backing (for attaching to metal surfaces) and sticky-note–style adhesive (often water-based and repositionable) that lets sheets stick to vertical surfaces.

Pads with full magnetic backing are designed for refrigerators and other metal surfaces. Sticky-note–style pads with repositionable adhesive are intended for walls, planners, desktops, and other nonmetal surfaces.

Paper finishes are typically uncoated or matte. Ruling options include narrow/ruled, graph, specialty rulings, and plain (no ruling).

Descriptions commonly note a smooth writing surface compatible with pens, pencils, markers, and highlighters. One product specifies 80gsm paper.
