Traditional Checkout Counter:

In a supermarket or department store the checkout counter, check stand, or checkout is the counter where you purchase the items chosen from that store. Typically, this is a counter with a conveyer belt. The items move along the belt to the cashier who rings up the items and obtains the total. The items you purchased are then placed in bags for you to take them after paying.

Marketers place certain items at or near a checkout counter called point-of-sale displays. These displays typically work on compulsive buying theory, and contain small items such as batteries, gum, magazines, or any other item the merchant believes the customer may be inclined to purchase while standing in line, especially children will beg parents for candy, gum, and any small toy that may be at their eye level.
