If grocery store checkout lines are the bane of your existence, Amazon's newly anticipated cashier-less brick-and-mortar store could be your new favorite place to shop.

Using the Amazon Go app, customers can enter the store, take the items they want while the app keeps track of it all and then walk out when they're done shopping.

The company stated on its website that the store eliminates cashiers and registers "so you never have to wait in line."

Currently, the Amazon Go store, which spans 1,800 square feet, is only available to Amazon employees while it's being tested, but the company is launching the first public store in Seattle in early 2017.

Watch the video below to take a look inside what some are calling the grocery store of the future:
