I have handled the "multiple purchase" in 2 different ways:
-we have a "household" category that includes both grocery and household purchases such as toiletries. this is particularly helpful if you make a lot of your own toiletries (like i do) from kitchen ingredients.
-at the store, while placing things into the cart, I put food in front, and household in back. then while paying, i ring up the items in 2 (or three) different amounts- grocery, household (gift sometimes). this really only takes 1 or 2 extra minutes, and works beautifully!
