Abstract: Now days purchasing and shopping at big mall becoming a daily activity in metro cities. We can see huge rush at malls on holidays and weekends. The rush is even more when there are special offers and discount. People purchase different items and put them in trolley. After total purchase one needs to go to billing counter for payments. Usually more time is consumed in preparing the bill than shopping. At the billing counter the cashier prepare the bill using bar code reader which is a time consuming process and results in long queues at billing counters. Our aim is to develop a system that can be used in shopping malls to solve the above mentioned challenge. The system will be placed in all the trolleys. It will consist of a RFID reader. All the products in the mall will be equipped with RFID tags. When a person puts any products in the trolley, its code will be detected and the price of those products will be stored in memory. As we put the products, the costs will get added to total bill. If the product is removed from the trolley its bill will be automatically deducted .Thus the billing will be done in the trolley itself. Item name and its cost will be displayed on LCD.
Further we will send the bill and other details of the product to a local server where all the information will be saved and that information will be useful for inventory management. We provide counters which will be useful for people for bill payment. This system will make shopping easy and will reduce time loss.
