Weight-based shipping system

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more memories having stored thereon instructions, which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to at least:
• cause, at least in part by using a box allocation module, presentation of a first graphical user interface, wherein the first graphical user interface includes:
• a first indication of a progress towards reaching a parameter value associated with a virtual shipping container,
• a first group of products from an electronic catalog, and
• for individual products in the first group of products, a parameter associated with the individual product, the parameter indicating how much the individual product, following addition to the virtual shipping container, will contribute to the progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• receive, at least in part by using the box allocation module, a selection of a first product from the first group of products included in the first graphical user interface to add to the virtual shipping container, wherein the first graphical user interface includes a first parameter indicating how much the first product will contribute to the progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• add, at least in part by using the box allocation module, the first product from the first group of products to the virtual shipping container;
• determine, based at least in part on the first parameter and at least in part by using the box allocation module, an updated progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• and
• cause, at least in part by using the box allocation module, presentation of a second graphical user interface, wherein the second graphical user interface includes a second indication of the updated progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container, wherein a difference between the first indication included in the first graphical user interface and the second indication included in the second graphical user interface is proportional to the first parameter included in the first graphical user interface.

Non-transitory physical computer storage comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more computing devices, configure the one or more computing devices to at least:

• cause, at least in part by using a box allocation module, presentation of a first graphical user interface, wherein the first graphical user interface includes:
• a first indication of a progress towards reaching a parameter value associated with a virtual shipping container,
• a first group of products from an electronic catalog, and
• for individual products in the first group of products, a parameter associated with the individual product, the parameter indicating how much the individual product, following addition to the virtual shipping container, will contribute to the progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• receive, at least in part by using the box allocation module, a selection of a first product from the first group of products included in the first graphical user interface to add to the virtual shipping container, wherein the first graphical user interface includes a first parameter indicating how much the first product will contribute to the progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• add, at least in part by using the box allocation module, the first product from the first group of products to the virtual shipping container;
• determine, based at least in part on the first parameter and at least in part by using the box allocation module, an updated progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container;
• and
• cause, at least in part by using the box allocation module, presentation of a second graphical user interface, wherein the second graphical user interface includes a second indication of the updated progress towards reaching the parameter value associated with the virtual shipping container, wherein a difference between the first indication included in the first graphical user interface and the second indication included in the second graphical user interface is proportional to the first parameter included in the first graphical user interface.
