The shopping_list.py script includes a continue statement at the end of the while loop. Isn't this unnecessary?

The loop continues fine without it, as it should, until one enters "DONE."

Yeah, it's unnecessary. a) I didn't notice that while writing; b) it doesn't hurt anything and show people the keyword again, so it's not really a negative.
