Checkouk - Coding Exercise

Image a physical store which sells (only) 3 products:

Code         | Name         |  Price
-------------------------------------------------
VOUCHER      | Voucher      |   5.00€
TSHIRT       | T-Shirt      |  20.00€
MUG          | Coffee Mug   |   7.50€

Various departments have insisted on the following discounts:

• The marketing department believes in 2-for-1 promotions (buy two of the same product, get one free), and would like for there to be a 2-for-1 special on VOUCHER items.

• The CFO insists that the best way to increase sales is with discounts on bulk purchases (buying x or more of a product, the price of that product is reduced), and demands that if you buy 3 or more TSHIRT items, the price per unit should be 19.00€.

Checkout process allows for items to be scanned in any order, and should return the total amount to be paid. The interface for the checkout process looks like this (ruby):

co = Checkout.new(pricing_rules)
co.scan("VOUCHER")
co.scan("VOUCHER")
co.scan("TSHIRT")
price = co.total

Using ruby (>= 2.0), implement a checkout process that fulfills the requirements.
