1. A method of conducting transactions at a point-of-sale terminal using a wireless device, comprising:
- receiving at least one price from a point-of-sale terminal via a wireless link;
determining whether the at least one received price satisfies a price warning condition;
outputting a first signal at the wireless device in response to determining that the at least one received price satisfies the price warning condition; and
outputting a second signal at the wireless device in response to determining that the at least one received price does not satisfy the price warning condition.
