In this state, the cashier registers the product name, product code, unit price, etc. of the product purchased by the general consumer in the store register (1). Store register (1) Each data of registered products is
IC card (2) via C card reader/writer (3)
will be written to.

General consumers receive an IC card (2) after the cashier completes registration for all purchased products, and use this IC card.
The card (2) is set in an IC card reader/writer (5) connected to a personal computer (4) installed at home. Then, by performing the prescribed operations on the PC (4), the IC
The data written on the card (2) is read out to the personal computer (4), and a household account book creation process is performed on the personal computer (4). The created household account book is printed out using a printer (6) if necessary.
