Zappos.com has placed inserts into the security line shoe bins at LAX. Shoe bins; that's not much of a stretch since Zappos sells shoes. Catch the customer when they're thinking about their shoes with a cute line about the upcoming xray machine. They have some smart folks at Zappos.

Zappos cushions shoes at LAX

As I reached to unceremoniously dump my black patent leather pumps in, I note that the bin lined with a colorful ad.
