Nice job, but it needs error handling for price entries. Invalid entries are skipped with no notification. $0.99 works, but $.99 doesn't. Only handles $ prices (e.g., no euro).

Thanks for the nice words. The text entry area is pretty buggy right now. But we do store invalid entries so people can go back and edit them.

We'll have warnings showing to users when a line can't be parsed.
