Most businesses out there today are going to need some sort of cash register to keep their business running, as well as a way to store money in a safe way.  When you’re looking for a cash register, you can either go as advanced as possible, or you can be as cheap as possible, it’s all up to you.

When you’re ready to start your shop up, you will most likely want to get a cash register, and these are a few that I would recommend.

• Sharp XE-A505 Electronic Cash Register: This fairly easy to use, yet simple cash register has a thermal printing option, electronic journal, as well as bar code scanner that comes included.  It has 99 departments, 7000 price lookups, 20 clerk numbers, as well as a manager’s password.  It also includes an auto tax service.
• Sharp XE-A404 2-line: If you’re looking for a relatively cheap register that will get the job done, this Sharp version is under $275.    This register comes equipped with a 2-line alpha numeric back lit LCD display, thermal printing, as well as it can look up 7000 prices, use 40 clerks, and have up to 99 departments.  This register uses a 2 color LCD display.
• Casio(R) PCR-T265: Probably one of the most reasonably priced cash register on the Internet, this Casio can get the job done, and won’t kill your bank account in the process.  This register record transactions in 15 different categories, it has a PLU function that can memorize up to 100 items.  It can also track sales for up to 8 operators with number systems.  If that’s not enough, it comes equipped with a heavy-duty cash box with media slot.

Now remember, there are a million and one cash registers out there, and these are only a handful of machines that you can consider.  If you want to check out more, I’ve linked to this Amazon page as well that’s filled with registers that might suit your business needs.
