SHOPS AND SHOPPING

When we want to buy something, we must go to the shop where it is sold. In the shop-window we see what is sold in the shop. Sugar, coffee, salt, pepper, ham, bacon and so on are sold at the grocer’s. Bread, rings, rolls and buns are sold at the baker’s, meat and poultry – at the butcher’s. We go to the greengrocer’s for vegetables and to the fruiterer’s for fruit. Cakes and sweets are sold at the confectioner’s. At the fishmonger’s we can buy fresh, salted, dried, smoked and tinned fish. At the dairy’s there is milk, butter, cheese, margarine, cream and sour cream.

As you come into the shop you can see a salesman or a salesgirl standing behind the counter. The cashier sits at the cashdesk. The customers go up to the counters. The salesman weighs the goods which we want to buy on the scales and tells us the price. At the cashdesk we give the bill and the money to the cashier who gives us a check and our change. The salesman wraps up the goods and gives them to us.

Some shops have many departments where we can buy nearly everything we need. They are called department stores or supermarkets. In some shops there are no shop-assistants but only cashiers. The customers choose the goods they want and pay at the cashdesk. They are called self-service shops.

When we want to buy clothes, we go to the men and ladies outfitter’s. We buy boots and shoes at the boot and shoe shop. We buy jewelry at the jeweller’s. We buy books at the bookseller’s.
