Window-Shopping

Shopping

Window-shopping I love window-shopping. I like walking up and down in front of shop-windows. I love especially in the new shopping centre, where there are a lot of boutiques.

Every-day shopping I do my every-day shopping in the nearest shop. I am a regular customer there. The assistants know me, and they are very politely with me. I often do the shopping on my way home from work. Every day I buy bred, milk, some cold cuts and basic food for supper and breakfast.

Weekend shopping To do my weekend shopping I go to the nearest supermarket because it sells almost everything that a family needs. The customers walk about filling their baskets from the selves. The shops are full of customers. On Saturdays you always have to queue up in front of the counters as well as at the pay desks. In a supermarket you can get almost everything under one roof. Almost all supermarkets are self-service shops. They are very popular. Some people don’t like it. These people have to walk from shop to shop a long time. But the supermarkets have lower prices than small shops. I suppose this is because bulk sale is cheaper.

Supermarket The largest supermarket in our town is a self-service store. The first counter to your right is the FRUIT AND VEGETABLE COUNTER with its fresh fruits, for example oranges, bananas, pineapples, apples, plumbs, peaches, pears, grape, cherry and lots of different kinds of vegetables, for example: onion, potato, paprika, carrot. Next we come to the CONFECTIONERY shelves with all sorts of sweets, chocolate bars, cakes, biscuits and other sweets. Then comes the BAKERY COUNTER, which is always stocked with fresh breads, rolls, croissant, buns etc. Further down are the DRY GROCERIES shelves, where you buy flour, cereals, tea, spices, salt and sugar. There is also a big DAIRY counter with a large variety of dairy products: milk, cheese, butter, margarine, cream and yoghurt. Next to this is the DELICATESSEN. This counter sells sausages, ham, bacon, and salami. A special counter handles PACKED MEATS. There is a wide choice of chicken, pork, beef, veal, duck and turkey.

Shopping When I do my shopping there I walk from shelf to shelf. I fill my basket with the things I need. After I finishing shopping I go to the cash desk. There is often a long queue. When it is my turn, the cashier adds up the bill on the cash register and gives me the receipt. I pay. I pack the things and leave the shop. window-shopping kirakatnézegetés especially különösen politely udvariasan cold cuts felvágott fill tölt, telerak basket kosár queue up sorban áll counter pénztár pay desk pénztár, kassza under one roof egy helyen almost majdnem, csaknem self-service önkiszolgáló lower alacsonyabb bulk nagy mennyiség counter pult pineapple ananász plumb szilva confectionery cukrászda sweet édesség bakery counter pákáru stocked felszerel, áruval ellát croissant kifli bun molnárka dry groceries fűszeráru flour liszt cereal gabonanemű spice fűszer dairy tejtermékek delicatessen csemegeáru packed meats húsáru veal borjúhús cash desk pénztár(asztal) it is my turn sorra kerülök cash register pénztárgép receipt nyugta
