Delivery and wrap get given away
Delivery, assembly, gift wrap and the restocking fee are tiles on the register, sitting beside the goods at their own prices. Tap the $45 local drop onto the sale and it’s charged. Leave it off and it isn’t.
A $16 tee and a $145 pair of boots take the same thirty seconds at the register. The difference is what gets given away on the boots — the delivery, the wrap, the warranty. QuixChex keeps every one of those on the same tapped list as the goods, at your prices.
How a sale runs
Saturday. Someone comes in for a gift, picks a large candle and a diffuser, and asks whether you deliver. It all goes on one sale — $32, $38 and $45 for the local drop — and she wants it wrapped, so that’s $6 more. She isn’t a customer on file and doesn’t need to be. Card, tax on top, out the door.
You tap what’s in front of you — the boots, the cap, the wrap — and the quantity moves up and down on the line. Nothing is keyed in from memory and nothing is rounded down.
Delivery, assembly and the three-year warranty go on before the card does, not onto a note to invoice later. Tax lands on top, and the figure the button charges is the figure the sale records.
Attach a customer and the sale drops into their history, exemption and all. Choose nobody and it rings up as a walk-in, which is what most of them are.
Rung up. Out the door. Paid.

A walk-in buys a candle and leaves; that’s a sale, not a customer file. The ones worth a record — the special order, the $150 in-home fit, the three-year warranty — get a customer, and everything they bought sits under the name.
Your rate is set once and the register works it out on every sale. A customer holding a resale or nonprofit certificate is marked exempt on their record, certificate number and all, so their total comes out at zero tax with nobody doing arithmetic at the counter.
The $100 deposit is a sale against her name the day she orders it. When the item lands, the rest is a second sale on the same record, and the first one’s still sitting in her history — not on a sticky note taped to a box.

FAQ
No. What you sell is a priced list you tap at the register and edit when your prices move. There are no stock counts, no reorder points and no purchase orders — keep whatever you count with.
No. QuixChex doesn’t host a storefront, so there’s no product page for your customers and no web orders arriving. What a shop gets is the register: your own priced list, the card taken there, and every sale in one report afterwards.
As two sales under one name. Ring the $100 deposit through when she orders, and the balance when the item arrives; both land in her history, dated. What QuixChex won’t do is subtract one from the other. Nothing here holds an order total, so the figure still owed isn’t on a screen anywhere — but what she has paid already is never a guess.
No. This profile is the counter, so nothing gets assigned and there’s no booking calendar. The $45 delivery and the $150 in-home fit are lines you charge for; when they happen is still yours to arrange.
You can ring one up — the card is a $25 line, and the quantity control is how you sell more than one. What QuixChex doesn’t do is carry the balance afterwards. There’s no stored value to draw down, so redeeming it stays on whatever you use today.
Not this one. Retail here is counter sales. If you also take items in on the bench, the shop-with-a-service-desk profile carries the booking side that this one deliberately leaves out.
