The shopping lists contain items all themed around specific events like [Game Day](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kansas-city) or even Self Care Sunday to help shoppers quickly locate items to get ready for an event or treat themselves. Shoppers can also browse through curated shopping lists by their [favorite celebrities](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recipe-hub) with Lizzo being one of the first public figures to be featured. Instacart Carts are great for offering inspiration, but also tap into the number of users simply browsing to encourage them to make a purchase. The various Carts shopping lists are expected to be updated and expanded on a regular basis.
