Although there are many completion tools I doubt that there is one
which knows in which Org table column you are.
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryCompletion

But [...]_ALL to predefine Org property values to be selected easily
in the column view as described here
http://orgmode.org/manual/Property-syntax.html
knows in which column you are. To make benefit of this you could use a
flat tree with an entry for each purchase and a property for product,
shop and rating and capture the column view with
http://orgmode.org/manual/Capturing-column-view.html
into the known table "#+NAME: data" to be processed further.

@> is the last row, @I is the first hline to exclude the table header
that could have more than one line. For both and more see
