Abstract

According to one embodiment, a code reading apparatus includes an image capturing section, a first detecting section, a second detecting section, and an informing section. The image capturing section captures an image picked up by an image pickup section. The first detecting section detects a first symbol including commodity information of a commodity from the image captured by the image capturing section. The second detecting section detects a second symbol different from the shape of an element included in the first symbol in the image captured by the image capturing section. The informing section informs, if the second detecting section detects the second symbol, that a benefit indication indicating a benefit granted with respect to the commodity information is affixed to the commodity.
