    What error? Do you get a compiler error? An error I see is that there is not an ending } for the class
    Please copy and paste here the full text of the error message.

    If you're asking how to add an item to an ArrayList, see the ArrayList API docs.

    If your ArrayList is going to hold Items, it would be sensible to call it 'items'. If you call it 'Item', how will the compiler know when you mean the ArrayList and when you mean the Item class? Use the Java Naming Conventions (class names start with an uppercase letter, method and variable names start with a lowercase letter).

    If you want to pass an ArrayList to the mainMenu method, you need to declare it as a parameter.
