Finwitch:

That was in Goblet of Fire, and it's the first time someone else is
doing Harry's shopping for him. The giving of the list and permission
is cut off (well, I'd say that putting Molly say that and Harry do it
in the next sentence would be clumsy). As for Molly doing the same
thing apparently on her own in the Order of the Phoenix, I'd say that
the permission Harry gave Molly upon leaving to the Quidditch World
Cup was still in force. Maybe Molly had the key (or whatever) when she
was arguing with Sirius, saying that Harry was 'as good as' her son.
