SHOPPING

We already know some of the places where we can buy a lot of things.

Shopping, shopping from Fernanda Gonzalez

Now we are going to buy those things. And this is what we have to know and say:

• Where can I buy chewing gums?   You can buy chewing gums at a newsagent's.
• Where can I buy a cap?    You can buy a cap at a sport shop.

If we want to buy something, we have to ask the shop keeper:

• How much is the bag? It's ...         = It is ...
• How much are the shoes? They're ...  = They are ...

But, the most important thing you need when shopping is MONEY!

The lyrics are here.

And this is a part of the lyrics.

Do you want to know the things you can buy with one euro and with one pound?
