Improve Extra Groceries feature #51

Currently the extra groceries feature has a free text field which enables the entering of a description or grocery items, it them iterates the input into a list format. If you describe the reason for the groceries it looks very confusing as it just creates a column of words with the description.

Break out the input capability so that individual line items can be added but also a high level description of the reason for needing to buy additional groceries displayed in way that is easy to read.

Conduct a UX/UI conversation to see what options are available to make this experience useful whilst not requiring unnecessary amounts of input.

This story is to patch up the existing manual entry approach another story/spike will be created in the future that looks at the options to scan receipts with a possible OCR solution library to capture the items and process the without the need for so much input. Fixing the CSS for the mobile design would be a dependency for this as we would need to leverage the camera from the device to scan the receipt.
