FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

          CHECKPOINT SYSTEMS, INC. REVISES PREVIOUSLY REPORTED FOURTH
                        QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2005 RESULTS

Thorofare, New Jersey, March 9, 2006 - Checkpoint Systems, Inc. (NYSE: CKP)
today said that it is revising its previously announced results for the fourth
quarter and full year ended December 25, 2005, to reflect an adjustment for
foreign exchange gain/losses. The revised results are included in the
Company's Form 10-K report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
earlier today.

The adjustment results in an increase in foreign exchange losses for the fourth
quarter 2005 of $816,000 before tax, or $527,000 after-tax, and is reflected in
the Company's "other (loss) gain, net" line-item in its consolidated statements
of operations. The net effect of the adjustment reduces the Company's earnings
per diluted share for the 2005 fourth quarter by $0.01. As a result, actual
earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2005 has been revised to
$0.30, from $0.31 as previously reported in the Company's press release on March
2, 2006. For the 2005 full-year period, earnings per diluted share has been
revised to $1.01, from $1.02 also as reported on March 2, 2006. Please refer to
