PMW Purchasing Manager Whoosh
Homepage
Are you a college student with roommates? Do you either go to buy something almost every day upon others' requests, or do you suffer without transportation, begging your roommates to remember to buy something for you? No more. Coordinate your purchases!
Program description
PMW Purchasing Manager Whoosh is a web-based request tracker specifically designed for college students (and written by a college student) who live together, do not see or talk to each other much, but are not all completely self-sufficient and independent, or maybe just striving for efficiency and see no need to make three separate trips to the store to buy milk, bread, and sugar. This software allows each person to store requests and to view others' requests so that purchases could be made conveniently.
