Shop Flashcards
Are there any stores in your area?
1) well yes there are a couple of stores that we go there on a daily basis like the supermarket or the grocery store but other types of shops are located in the center of the city which is not far from my neighborhood.
Where do you like to go shopping?
2) Browsing around the malls has always been enjoyable for me There are a couple of big shopping centers in my city where I do most of my shopping there Because of its wide range of stores under one roof that makes shopping convenient and saves time.
Do you like shopping in street markets?
3) no not really. I only go there if I have to because I can never be sure about the quality of the product I purchase from a street market and if I don’t like what bought I can’t take it back.
Do you get a discount when you go shopping?
4) no I hate to bargain for a discount although haggling over the price of things is common in my country It makes me uncomfortable and I think it’s rude to ask for a discount when I already know the price.
Describe a place where you like going shopping.
Browsing around the malls has always been enjoyable for me Because of its wide range of stores under one roof that makes shopping convenient and saves time.
The shopping center where I do most of my shopping is a ten-story building in the city center called Hirad. This is the largest mall in the city.
You can find almost everything there. the reasonable prices and quality of the products have made it a popular shopping mall
There are many other positive reasons why I love the hired center including various food courts, cheap parking tickets, open space, and a neat environment. The entire building is designed with live plants and flowers which gives us a unique vibe and makes shopping more enjoyable.
The security of the mall is at its highest level. There are guards and cameras everywhere. You can shop without worrying about thieves.
I go there at least once or twice a week not only for shopping but also for gatherings, festivals, or having lunch in Hirads food court.
Do you like shopping online or going out shopping?
Although I enjoy browsing around malls, I prefer to shop online and the main reason is convenience. I can buy things from the comfort of your home. I can also check and compare the prices of the products and choose the best offer.
There are also websites that constantly offer discounts on their products.
What are the disadvantages of shopping in a big mall?
Well, to begin with, the prices are often higher than what you would find in a local store. This is because shopping centers have to pay for the general expenses. Another disadvantage is that malls sometimes get very crowded, which can make it difficult to find what you are looking for and lastly if you are not familiar with the layout of the stores, it can be difficult to find your way around.
(Lastly, big malls can be very overwhelming, and it can be easy to get lost. If you are not familiar with the layout of the store, it can be difficult to find your way around.)
Why do people like to buy branded products?
While branded products often carry higher price tags than simple ones, people are ready to pay for the quality, stylishness, and prestige associated with the brand so they can feel more confident and valuable.
Advantage and disadvantage of online shopping
With the growth of the internet, Some prefer the online method of shopping while others still use the traditional way. here we are going to talk about the benefits and limitations of shopping online. First, let’s start with the disadvantages such as unexpected delays in the delivery of the booked item. Booking an order hardly takes five minutes, but its delivery sometimes takes a delay of 3-10 days or more. Another flow of this method is Lack of touch with items so you can’t have an exact idea of the product’s quality. It can only be possible when the product is booked and delivered to us like once I ordered a jacket that was much shorter than I expected and the color was different from the picture.
However, shopping online has its advantages that make this method more popular each day like convenience; people can easily purchase anything they want from their office or home by entering some keywords and saving traveling time another virtue of this way of shopping is online reviews. I always use them to get basic information about the product I’m interested in. Overall online shopping has its limitations and benefits, so it is entirely up to the users how they use them.
