bag boy

Store checkout helper

A bag boy is a grocery store employee who bags customers' purchases and often carries them to the car.

The position is typically entry-level, held by teenagers or young adults.

Despite the name, bag boys may be any age, and the role is sometimes called bagger to avoid the diminutive: The bag boy helped load the groceries into my trunk.
