checkout aisle

Store exit queue

A checkout aisle is the lane in a grocery store or supermarket where customers pay for their purchases.

Shoppers queue with their carts, unload items onto a conveyor belt, and interact with a cashier or self-service terminal.

The checkout aisle is lined with impulse-buy items—candy, magazines, gum—positioned to tempt waiting customers: The kids always grab something from the checkout aisle.
