Python Python Basics (Retired) Shopping List Shopping List Project

shopping_list not running for me

shopping_list =list()

print("what we pick up at the store?")
print("Enter DONE to stop adding item.")

while true:
   new_item=input(">")

if new_item == 'DONE':
  break

shopping_list.append(new_item)
print("Added! list has {} item.".format(len(shopping_list)))
continue

print("He's your list:")

for item in shopping_list:
  print(item)
