Ok, having a flag set in the session and checking it before a checkout will get me out of doing the checkout more than once. But the problem I face here is, when the browser sends multiple requests, it always waits for the response from the last request. But in my case, the first request will do the checkout. Do I have to keep track of all the threads associated with the requests, and once the flag is reset by the first request, get the thread associated with the last request and redirect to the thankyou page?

Otherwise, there is something called "sensitive form resubmits" and a relatively standard way of handling the situation. You can find some info about it here: http://www.kobrix.com/view_contribution.jsp?cid=7 This is in the context of our own product, but the general solution is described as well.
