In use, the user enters the data representative of a number of goods required to be purchased from a retailer (by scanning their respective bar codes 30 in a catalogue 28 or the like) and, when their particular 'shopping list' is complete, downloads data items into an e-mailing unit (provided in a personal computer or otherwise) where the data items are converted to format suitable for e-mail transmission across en electronic data communication transmission network, and transmitted to the retailer for dispatch. <IMAGE>
