just an idea i had today, which I think would be beneficial, though may or may not be feasible. i find that i frequently (or at least semi-frequently) want to purchase whatever-the-cheapest-supercocktail-drink-currently is, but short of writing a ash script or something i'm not keen on a way to do this easily. rather than searching for them all one at a time and remembering which is the cheapest, what if there was an option on the Purchases tab to be able to search for "common" groupings of items instead of searching by text string pattern matches?
I recognize that there may be no limit to what people consider appropriate or viable groupings which is sort of what the "is this really feasible" comes into play, but I figure the valid groupings could be determined by using the groupings that food/booze discoveries use. i'll grant you i'd prefer "advanced cocktails" over "fruity-girl drinks" so maybe that part is a bad idea. i'm open for better ones, i just wish there was a way to search for comparable items without relying on them starting with the same letters or containing the same words for a pattern match.
maybe even boolean searching like "mae OR mon OR stratocaster" etc... thought that seems harder for some reason. perhaps mafia is limited by native KOL in this regard in which case I suppose there isn't much we could do.
anyway just a thought as I've found myself wishing for something like this in the past.
