Things like buying milk and...

Things like buying milk and index cards go under my @errands list (as recommended by D. Allen) under the title of “grocery store,” in this instance, with a note attached to each (we’re talking Palm environment here) with a list of those 2 items. That way I can grab everything I need there in one swoop.

I would think GTDers would put their blessing on the other groupings you suggest as well. But like you said, who cares if it isn’t within the GTD context anyway as long as it works efficiently.
