Abstract
A computer implemented method for providing virtual reality shopping provides generating, by a virtual reality (VR) engine, a VR user interface (UI) and a VR session within a VR device. A list of discounted items being discounted based on proximity to an expiration or best by use date is received from the computing device of an institution item source. A VR image of virtual items on virtual shelves in the VR UI is displayed. The virtual items are dynamically displayed in different positions between a first VR session and a second VR session. Virtual representations of the discounted items being discounted are displayed in positions of priority on the virtual shelves, relative to other virtual items on the virtual shelves.
