Shopping for food

Shopping for food I often go shopping at the weekend. Saturdays and Sundays are perfect days for shopping. All shops work on these days. I make up a shopping list and write down the products I’m going to buy. I think a shopping list is very convenient because I know what I want to buy and I don’t make any silly mistake. I take my money, a credit card, because you can pay by credit card in most places. I can go to a department store where I can do the shopping under one roof. But I can also go to supermarket. At first, I drop in at the greengrocer’s where I can buy vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbages, carrots, oranges, apples, pears, tangerines, bananas. I am always very careful when I buy vegetables and fruit. I want them to be fresh. Then I go to the butcher’s. There I can buy pork, beef, mutton, chicken, sausage. It depends on what I’m going to cook at home. The bakery is the next on my way. Sometimes I call at the bakery to buy buns, bread or biscuits there. It’s common knowledge that dairy products are very useful for our health, so I always visit the dairy department to buy milk, cheese, yoghurt and kefir. I finish my shopping by calling at the grocer’s to buy noodles, spaghetti, olive oil, salt and sugar. Of course, I can go to the market. The prices are much cheaper there. The salespeople are always very polite. They try to help me to find what I need. You can also compare prices. If things are not heavy, I continue my shopping, but if I have lots of bags, I give up shopping and do it next
