A self-scanning checkout device includes a registration section (3) having a stationary scanner (9) for permitting a customer to input article information for a purchased article, a counter (5) arranged on the downstream side from the registration section (3) in the article moving direction, for receiving a purchased article which has been registered thereon, and a monitoring section for monitoring a movement of the purchased article, wherein the monitoring means is constructed to set a article registration flag when information of the purchased article is read by the stationary scanner (9), check the article registration flag when the passage of an article is detected by article sensors (10, 11) disposed near and on the downstream side from the reading position of the stationary scanner (9), reset the article registration flag when the article registration flag is detected to be set, and issue an alarm indicating the passage of an unregistered article when the article registration flag is detected to be reset. <IMAGE> |
