I guess the Walmarts near me are different. I just scan stuff and I can either bag it on the platform or put it straight into my cart. The portable barcode scanner means I don't need to take the 50lb bag of dog food out of the cart either. There's no special aisle to exit, you just leave the regular way.

The special aisle is for this system where you scan items as you take them off the shelf.

Checkout-as-you-go instead of filling your cart and checking out at the end.

Now that would be cool. I can't wait until they have it around here.
