Abstract
The invention provides a system and method for facilitating on-line shopping. A list of goods or services purchased during a particular customer visit is stored in electronic form and a receipt of that transaction is generated, in electronic or paper form, with the code thereon. For a subsequent purchase, such as on-line, the customer can provide the code, which re-generates the list of goods or services of the previous purchase. The customer can then repeat the same purchase or make quickly and easily amendments to that list. Shopping, particularly on-line, can thus be facilitated.
