The channel comprises a first channel segment and a second channel segment separated by a gap. Each of the first and second channel segments comprises a first side wall and an opposing second side wall integral with a bottom wall to define a generally U-shaped structure. The bottom wall of the first channel segment faces a side opposite from the side at which the bottom wall of the second channel segment faces.

Described is a retractable bagging station for use in a retail store. The bagging station includes a frame and a bag dispenser retractably coupled to the frame. The bag dispenser holds and dispenses shopping bags. The bag dispenser is retractably coupled to the frame such that the bag dispenser extends out of and retracts into the frame. The bagging station is retractable into the frame so that the bagging station can be stored in a retracted position under a counter, for example, when the bagging station is not needed. When the bagging station is needed, it can be extended out from the frame to be used. The bagging station can be mounted under a counter of a checkout station, for example, so the bagging station can be used at the checkout station when needed.
