# Store both pieces of data in a text file called HomeInventory.txt
#objFile = open("HomeInventory.txt", "a")
#objFile.write(itemNameAndValue)
#objFile.close()

# Politely end the script.
#input("Nice. Press enter to exit.")

# TODO When the program exits, ask if they would like to save the data to a text file called HomeInventory.txt

# TODO If they agree, write the data from the tuple to the text file.
