Stress test our store's checkout process

I want to simulate our whole checkout process under load. This essentially involves running a number of POSTs in sequence, where the client is storing a unique cookie for each sequence that allows the session to be preserved. Can anyone recommend a software or service that meets these conditions?

There are lots of options for this kind of test. Free/open-source tools will require a bit more work on your part but are otherwise free. Tools like ours (Load Tester 5) will get the job done much quicker, but there is a cost for the software. If your organization does not have much experience with load testing and are on a tight schedule, you might want to bring in outside help to help you meet your deadline and learn the process (we offer services as well!).

This sort of thing could be very easily, effectively and freely accomplished using Apache JMeter. You can either record the journey using JMeter's proxy or simply add the requests manually.

To simulate cookies add a Cookie Manager to the testplan. For any other tokens or session ids that need to be correlated you can use a Regular Expression Extractor.
