Treehouse TeacherHi there! Unfortunately, you haven't posted all of your code so I'm going to have to make an educated guess here. My guess is that your code looks a bit like this:
shopping_list.append(new_item)
if new_item == 'DONE':
break
If this is the case, then the order needs to be reversed. You need to first check for "DONE" and break before it can be added to the list:
if new_item == 'DONE':
break
shopping_list.append(new_item)
Hope this helps!
