When we want to buy something, we go to a shop. There are many kinds of
shops in every town or city, but most of them have a food supermarket, a
department store, men's and women's clothing stores, grocery, a bakery
and a butchery.
I like to do my shopping at big department stores
and supermarkets. They sell various goods under one roof and this is
very convenient. A department store, for example, true to its name, is
composed of many departments: readymade clothes, fabrics, shoes, sports
goods, toys, china and glass, electric appliances, cosmetics, linen,
curtains, cameras, records, etc. You can buy everything you like there.
There
are also escalators in big stores which take customers to different
floors. The things for sale are on the counters so that they can be
easily seen. In the women's clothing department you can find dresses,
costumes, blouses, skirts, coats, beautiful underwear and many other
things. In the men's clothing department you can choose suits, trousers,
overcoats, ties, etc. In the knitwear department one can buy sweaters,
cardigans, short-sleeved and long-sleeved pullovers, woolen jackets. In
the perfumery they sell face cream and powder, lipstick, lotions and
shampoos.
In a food supermarket we can also buy many different
things at once: sausages, fish, sugar, macaroni, flour, cereals, tea. At
the butcher's there is a wide choice of meat and poultry. At the bakery
you buy brown and white bread, rolls, biscuits. Another shop we
frequently go to is the greengrocery which is stocked by cabbage,
potatoes, onions, cucumbers, carrots, beetroots, green peas and what
not. Everything is sold here ready-weighed and packed. If you call round
at a dairy you can buy milk, cream, cheese, butter and many other
products.
I like to go shopping very much. It is one of the best ways to get rid of daily stress.
