When the top page for unlimited content is accessed from the terminal device 3 of another user, the control unit 11 of the server device 1 uses the combination of products stored in the storage unit 14 as an example of unlimited content. And the purchase of the product of the combination is permitted to other users with the purchase amount corresponding to the combination. Then, when all of the displayed combinations of products are purchased and confirmed from all-you-can-eat content by other terminal devices 3, the control unit 11 of the server device 1 applies to the user account that created the combination of products. A reward is given to a user by giving a reward. Here, rewards include discounts at the time of product purchase, distribution of coupons, distribution of points, and the like.

[3. effect]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, when the layout of the product graphics Sa to Sg arranged in the accommodation area G satisfies a predetermined condition, the combination of products corresponding to the product graphics Sa to Sg is used. Is permitted at an amount corresponding to the accommodation amount G, the user places the product figures Sa to Sg in the accommodation region G through trial and error so that the layout satisfies a predetermined condition. Furthermore, as long as the predetermined condition is satisfied, more products can be selected, and products other than those that the user really wants can be purchased. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the sales promotion effect while providing interest at the time of product selection.

Further, when the layout of the merchandise figures Sa to Sg arranged in the accommodation area G does not overlap with each of the merchandise figures Sa to Sg, and the entire layout is completely within the accommodation area G, a predetermined condition is satisfied. Since it is determined that the condition is satisfied, the user can experience the work of packing more product figures Sa to Sg in the accommodation area G. In other words, so-called all-you-can-shop shopping can be realized in a virtual space, and it is possible to provide users with all-you-can-eat fun in online shopping.
In order to create an all-you-can-eat atmosphere, an effect may be given such that the accommodation area G expands somewhat as the product figures Sa to Sg are clogged. The degree of expansion is also arbitrarily determined by the shopping site administrator. Further, the merchandise figures Sa to Sg may be arranged in the accommodation area G determined by the degree of expansion. Furthermore, even if the merchandise figures Sa to Sg protrude from the accommodation area G by a predetermined amount (for example, less than half), it may be determined that the predetermined condition is satisfied. Further, it may be determined that a predetermined condition is satisfied even if the overlap of the product figures Sa to Sg is allowed and the area of the overlapped area is within a predetermined amount.

In addition, since the combination of the product permitted to purchase and the purchase price are stored, and the purchase of the product of the combination is also permitted to the other user with the purchase price, the combination of the products among a plurality of users can be performed. Can be shared.
In addition, when all of the combination products displayed on the other terminal device 3 are purchased from the other terminal device 3, a reward is given to the user account that created the list of the products, so that the user can be accommodated. The purpose consciousness at the time of arranging the product figures Sa to Sg in the region G is increased, and the interest is further enhanced.

[4. Others]

Specifically, when the terminal device 3 accesses the top page of the shopping site, scripts and data for unlimited content are downloaded from the server device 1 to the terminal device 3 at once. The terminal device 3 executes the processing for all-you-can-stuff content described above based on the downloaded script and data.

Moreover, although the case where virtually unlimited shopping is realized is illustrated in the above embodiment, the arrangement of the product graphics Sa to Sg is not limited to this. Specifically, in the web page C1 for the selected course shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the accommodation area G1 is a pedestal imitating a seesaw. Virtual gravity is set for the accommodation area G1. FIG. 11 shows a case where the accommodation area G1 is empty, and FIG. 11 shows a case where the product graphics Sa, Sd, Sf are placed in the accommodation area G1.
A virtual weight and a gravity center position are set in advance for each of the product figures Sa to Sg, and the accommodation area G1 is wobbled by placing them on the accommodation area G1. If the center of gravity position of the layout of the product figures Sa to Sg placed in the storage area G1 and the center of gravity position of the storage area G1 deviate by a predetermined amount or more, the inclination of the storage area G1 also increases and the product figure Sa ~ Sg is broken. Further, the maximum loading load is set in the accommodation area G1, and the product figures Sa to Sg are collapsed when the total weight of the product figures Sa to Sg placed on the accommodation area G1 exceeds the maximum loading load. It has become. Here, the weight and center of gravity positions of the product figures Sa to Sg of each product and the maximum loading capacity of the accommodation area G1 are arbitrarily determined by the operator according to the difficulty level of each course.
When the layout of the product figures Sa to Sg stacked in the accommodation area G does not collapse, it is determined that a predetermined condition is satisfied.
As a result, a virtual shopping method other than all-you-can-pack can be realized, and more various shopping methods can be provided to the user.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although merchandise figure Sa-Sg and accommodation area | regions G and G1 are expressed in two dimensions, all can also be expressed in three dimensions. In such a case, although the difficulty at the time of arrange | positioning a merchandise figure in an accommodation area | region increases, the interest property will also be improved.
