Best POS Systems and Cash Registers for Grocery Stores

With a memory capacity of up to 25,000 barcodes, feel free to stock up your store with a great supply of convenience goods. This electronic cash register is a decent all-rounder; it’s easy to use, features a clear tilt operator LCD display, and includes a customer display so people can see their bill adding up.

It comes with drop and load receipt printer built in, ports to hook up the till to your PC, and you can opt for an integrated bar scanner, too. Talk about convenience. There’s not much to moan about with the Casio TE-4500F. Only that it’s not the cheapest cash register out there. But if it’s an all-rounder you need, you can’t go wrong.

There’s no getting away from the fact that the Sam4s is very basic. But for a small convenience store where baskets consist of a couple of items, it’s more than adequate. This electronic cash register is a decent all-rounder; it’s easy to use, features a clear tilt operator LCD display, and includes a customer display so people can see their bill adding up.

The Sam4s doesn’t hook up to a scanner, which means you’re going to need to label your stock. It does come with a printer, though, so you’ll be able to give your customers a receipt for their transaction.

There’s no denying that this Sam4s cash register is a huge step up from its sibling featured before. This one combines simple electric cash register functionality with a POS display. This makes it the one you go for if you’re looking for a cost-effective alternative to a PC or tablet based POS system.

You can enter up to 60,000 barcodes – great if you run a larger convenience store – and thanks to the 7” touchscreen, you can easily navigate to and amend a sale. If you have just over $1,000 to spare, this electric cash register could make a good investment. But for convenience stores where customer turnover is low, it may not be worth the payout.
