Shopping
I am going to tell you a few things about shopping. Many people enjoy going shopping. They enjoy window-shopping, trying on clothes, spending hours walking around shopping malls.
On the other hand, some people hate shopping, they can't stand crowds and they don’t like to wait in queues.
When you go shopping you should make a shopping list, because shop owners use different tricks to make you spend your money.
There are lots of big and small shops in my town. We can buy goods at department stores, shopping centers, newsagent’s, supermarkets, chemist’s, bookshops, food stores and markets.
We usually buy products at the nearest supermarket. It takes us 10 minutes to walk there. My mum often makes a shopping list. I like going to supermarkets, because they are self-service shops. There is a wide choice of goods under one roof, so we can buy everything we need at once. It is very convenient.
We always go to the bakery department. There are loaves of brown and white bread, rolls, buns and biscuits. They are always fresh and tasty.
My mother and I have a sweet tooth, so we never miss the confectionary department where we take sweets, candies, chocolate bars and so on.
We often go to the greengrocery department where different fruit and vegetables are sold. But, to tell the truth, in autumn we prefer to buy fruit, berries and vegetables at the market. They are fresh and tasty there.
At the butchery department customers buy meat and poultry, such as beef, pork, mutton and chicken.
At the dairy department we take milk, sour cream, cottage cheese, yogurt, cheese.
I help my mum to choose the products on the shelves, then push the trolley to the cash desk, where a cashier rings up our purchases. We can pay cash or by credit cards.
Sometimes we go shopping for clothes. I always try things on in the changing room. I don’t want to waste money on something too loose or too tight. The shop assistants always help us find the clothes of my size that fit and suit me. To conclude I’d like to say that I like shopping.
