Questions about barcoding and barcode scanners?

Questions about barcoding and barcode scanners?
I have stepped up to the position of managing my high school’s store… which is a complete mess. We had taken no inventory until I took one a couple days ago, no marketing, and no system of cash flow whatsoever. I want to create a system of barcoding where we have a barcode assigned to each product on a sheet of paper. When that product is going to be purchased, I want to be able to scan the barcode into the computer and have it show the price and take it out of our inventory, or at least make a list of what was scanned that day. Does anybody know if this is possible? I want to get a barcode scanner and barcodes for under 100$. Any information/ websites would be helpful… I have googled this but I am getting lost in all of the information! Thanks!

Best answer:

what you need is POS software (point of sale ) there are some free ones out there but not sure of the reliability of them . and also complete linux os’s for it (operating systems) that you would install on a pc. it will remove what ever os was on it and install to that pc.as for the barcode lables ,those can be printed with the pos software or OS . equipment you can find just about anything on Ebay or Craigs list,
