checkout counters
Store exit points
Checkout counters are the stations in retail stores where customers pay for their purchases.
The term covers both the physical counter surface and the broader area including the cash register, conveyor belt, and bagging space: The checkout counters were all backed up with long lines.
In supermarkets and big-box stores, these are typically arranged in rows near the exit.
