Shopping - Grocery

Listen to the Entire Lesson

Grocery shopping is a common thing that is done at least on a weekly basis. I'll cover some general sentences that are commonly used.

Before shopping

"I'm going to the grocery store. Do you need anything?"
"I'm going to QFC. Do you want to go?"
"Did you create a grocery list?"
"I'm going to Safeway tonight. Let me know if you need anything by 5:30."
"Let's go to the grocery store together."

Many large grocery stores have coupons they distribute through the newspaper. You cut them out and save money on items that are shown in the coupon.

"I have a bunch of coupons I got from the newspaper."
"There were a lot of coupons, but I didn't need any of them."
"There are no coupons for anything I ever buy."

During grocery shopping

"Where is your bread section?"
"Where can I find milk?"
"Where are your beers?"
"Do you sell alcohol here?"
"I'm looking for pickles. Can you help me find them?"
"Do you have a bakery section?"
"I'm looking for cough medicine. Where is your medicine area?"
