a bunch of stuff, a basket of goods
It really depends on the larger context. They may mean that you have to buy a shopping basket full of stuff instead of just buying a single item. Literally it means "one must pay for a basket of goods..." but it's hard to imagine an English speaker ever saying that! Ha!
A passel of stuff
A load of things
Several items
A group of items
Multiple products

: basket of goods. These are often a fairly standard selection bought regularly to show price trends over time, or in different countries/areas to compare costs of living etc.
