Hi, I have not tried this, but I think you just say to Siri something like, Remind me to do a shopping list when I get home. Or, "Remind me to take out the trash when I leave home. Now, if she waits until you are already away from home, that isn't much help. And, as I said, I have not tried this, but I would think it would work.
