Small shops vs. Big department stores
Very favourite are supermarkets. At a supermarket we can buy everything from food: meat, cheese, eggs, milk, butter, bread, sugar, flour, tea, coffee, fruits, vegetables, something from chemist and sometimes clothes.
The most favourite is a department store. It has different sections where we can buy various goods – clothes for women, men and children, shoes, electronics, books, furniture, perfume, cosmetics and of course food.
Most women go shopping every day to local markets because they are near their homes, but there is smaller choice than in supermarket and food is expensive.
Families do a larger shopping in a department store once a week. It’s like a trip.
Supermarkets
Pros: There is a wide choice of goods, cheaper prices and we can buy everything what we need on one place. It’s good for bigger shopping. Often there are some sales.
