Here's what I have so far. The real problem for me is changing the ints into the price. (Xbox360 = 1 into 299.99 = 1)
// Part 2
int num1, num2;
int Xbox360 = 1;
int PS2 = 2;
int PS3 = 3;
int PS4 = 4;
int WiiU = 5;
int Xbox360Controller = 6;
int PS2Controller = 7;
int PS3Controller = 8;
int PS4Controller = 9;
int WiiUController = 10;
cout << "Welcome to Electricy Plus! " << endl;
cout << "There are ten products to choose from. " << endl;
cout << "Please choose a number between one and ten. " << endl;
cout << " " << endl;
cout << "1 = Xbox 360 Price = $299.99 " << endl;

Just define an array of doubles to store the prices:
double price[10];
price[0] = 299.99;
price[1] = 129.99;
...etc...
then access the price using num2-1.
For example:
if (num2 == 1)
{
cout << "You have chosen the Xbox 360. The subtotal is $299.99. " << endl;
cout<<"price: "<<price[num2-1]<<endl;
}
You really should use a switch statement instead of all those ifs.

Just like modulo_function says that is the most suitable solution you could find and you can also create a variable to store the subtotal and display the total amount
sht like:
double fresult = 0;
if (num1 == 1)
{
cout << "You have chosen the Xbox 360. The subtotal is $299.99. " << endl;
cout<<"price: "<<price[num2-1]<<endl;
fresult += price[num1-1];
}
...
if (num2 == 1)
{
cout << "You have chosen the Xbox 360. The subtotal is $299.99. " << endl;
cout<<"price: "<<price[num2-1]<<endl;
fresult += price[num2-1];
}
cout<<"Total: "<<fresult<<endl;
