  • Hey guys! It's Ariannita la Gringa and  welcome back to my YouTube Channel.

  • Right now I'm in downtown Cincinnati.

  • And in today's video I'm going to take all of you guys with me to do some Christmas shopping.

  • I will teach you Christmas vocabulary.

  • Come along with me and let's head to the first store.

  • Right now I'm at my first store HomeGoods.

  • Let's go ahead and check it out because I'm sure they have a lot of Christmas decorations.

  • And you might be wondering...

  • What is HomeGoods?

  • Well, the name is quite literal.

  • They sell things or goods for the home.

  • And right now it is the best time to shop here

  • because they have holiday decor (holiday decorations) for Christmas.

  • And we're going to play a little game.

  • I'm going to give you 3 seconds

  • I will hold an item and then you are going to try to guess what the name of the item is.

  • What are these called?

  • These are called Christmas stockings or just stockings

  • and you can put Christmas presents  inside

  • but normally we call these Christmas presents stocking stuffers

  • which are basically small gifts that you can put inside a stocking

  • and where would you hang these stockings?

  • Well you hang these stockings on a fireplace (a fireplace).

  • You hang Christmas stockings on a shelf

  • above the fireplace called the mantle (mantle)

  • and normally Christmas stockings will have your name on them

  • so you will know which one is yours.

  • Moving away from the Christmas stockings right now I'm in another aisle (aisle).

  • And what are these called?

  • This is called a wreath

  • but if you have two of them these are two wreaths (wreaths).

  • A Christmas wreath (a wreath) is normally made out of twigs, flowers, and branches

  • and they form a ring shape

  • and you can normally hang these on your windows

  • or on your front door

  • and this will just bring in the Christmas spirit.

  • This wreath is $39.99

  • but this wreath is $49.99

  • so they're between $40 and $50.

  • Now something that you will see in  a lot of retail stores

  • are these things behind me

  • What are these called?

  • These will hang on your Christmas tree (on the branches)

  • and these are called ornaments (Christmas ornaments).

  • There are different colors of Christmas ornaments

  • some have different shapes like these right here

  • and they come in a box in a set this is a set of 100 Christmas ornaments

  • and they are shatterproof

  • which basically means it's impossible to break

  • so if a Christmas ornament

  • falls on the floor that means it will not break into small pieces.

  • How much do you think this big box costs?

  • Well, it costs $39.99

  • and on this box, there are some tips to decorate your Christmas tree.

  • These ornaments are different colors

  • so it may be hard to decorate your Christmas tree

  • and if you don't know where to  start you can turn the box and on the back of the box

  • there are tips for decorating your tree.

  • Number one separate your ornaments by color

  • So separate them by gold, red.

  • Start with one color and create triangular patterns.

  • This store has a bunch of holiday decor  and they even have doormats.

  • These are doormats and these door mats are decorated for Christmas

  • and I really like this one it's a green doormat and it says Noel

  • and I think I'm going to buy it but first let me check out the price.

  • This costs $12.99

  • and I will buy it because I think it is a decent price

  • and I think it'll look great outside my front door

  • And above the door mats this this store has decorative pillows.

  • This ispillow with Santa Claus on it and it costs $24.99.

  • This store not only has holiday decor for your home...

  • Well, they also have things for your pets.

  • They have dog treats

  • These are dog treats (holiday dog biscuits) just for your dog

  • and then they also have dog bowls for food and water

  • and this is decorated just for Christmas.

  • Over here they even have dog toys for Christmas

  • so this is a shape of a bone

  • and it squeaks and then here are some more dog toys

  • but right now my puppy already has enough dog toys

  • so I'm going to set these down we are going to go to a different store

  • but first I have to check out at the checkout counter.

  • Right now I'm waiting  in the checkout line.

  • There is a line to buy my item so I have to wait over here

  • and then I also found this beautiful table runner for $19.99

  • so I'm going to buy both items this table runner and this doormat.

  • Okay, it's going to be $34.96.

  • Thank you.

  • And it's gonna ask about your receipt type on there too.

  • Thank you!

  • Thanks you too!

  • Right now I'm outside HomeGoods and to be honest,

  • I didn't expect to buy anything inside the store

  • but I bought two things I bought a doormat and a table runner

  • and on my receipt, the total is $34.96

  • Now let's go and check out the second store.

  • Now I'm at the second store. It's called Target

  • and to be honest it's one of my favorite stores because I'm here almost every single week.

  • Let's go ahead and walk inside because it's pretty chilly (it's pretty cold)

  • and find some holiday decor for Christmas.

  • What do you find under your Christmas  tree?

  • Well, you find presents or gifts.

  • These are toys that can be gifts or presents for Christmas.

  • And how would you wrap these presents?

  • Well, you wrap these presents with wrapping paper.

  • This is wrapping paper.

  • These toys are in a box (box) and it's easy to wrap these toys with wrapping paper.

  • Each wrapping paper has a different design.

  • For example, this wrapping paper has Santa Claus on it,

  • this one says Merry Christmas,

  • and then this wrapping paper is red and has snowflakes on it.

  • And then once you have wrapped your box with wrapping paper you can put something beautiful on top.

  • What is this called?

  • This is a bow and you can put the bow on top of your present.

  • And then you can also use this.

  • What is this called?

  • This is ribbon and you can tie it around your gift.

  • And what happens if you want to buy a gift but the gift isn't in a box like a stuffed animal?

  • Well you can buy a bag.

  • This is a huge bag and you can put the gift (this present)

  • inside the bag and then put it underneath the tree.

  • In Target you can find toys like legos, action figures, dollsand trains

  • and these toys can be great presents for Christmas.

  • If you watched my Halloween vocab video you would know that Target sells candy

  • and each candy is different for each holiday

  • but right now it's Christmas time and Target has candy with the most famous figures of Christmas.

  • For example, this candy dispenser has a polar bear on it,

  • this Lindor chocolate is huge and it looks like a Christmas present,

  • and then this Skittles container is in the shape of a candy cane.

  • Oreos are in the shape of a snowball (they look like snowballs).

  • This Twix wrapper has Santa Claus on it.

  • And this pack of Kinder chocolate has snowmen on it.

  • Even this Nutella jar is decorated for Christmas.

  • You can actually write "Happy Holidays" with a pencil or pen and then give it to someone.

  • And then a fun activity you can do with your family is build a gingerbread house.

  • And over here they have different gingerbread houses (different shapes and sizes).

  • And you can actually eat the gingerbread house and the candy inside

  • but I wouldn't recommend it because you have to use the candy to decorate the house.

  • The candy is used as decoration.

  • Have you ever built a gingerbread house or eaten one?

  • Let me know down below.

  • Now can you tell me what this is called?

  • This is a Santa hat or if you speak fast you can just say Santa hat (Santa hat).

  • And you wear the Santa hat and you put it on your head.

  • This is Santa Claus (Santa Claus).

  • And this is the gingerbread man (gingerbread man).

  • And this is Santa's elf.

  • He makes all of Santa's presents and  he helps take care of the reindeer.

  • Inside Target they sell artificial Christmas trees

  • and then underneath the Christmas tree you normally will put a tree skirt

  • and then at the very top of the tree, you will put a star (a Christmas star).

  • So some of these stars are actually LED and they light up like this one right here says 'Santa Stop Here'.

  • And then this is Tinsel (Tinsel)

  • and you can wrap it around a tree and put it around the branches.

  • I'm not going to buy anything from Target so let's move on and head on over to the third store.

  • Right now I'm at the third storeHome Depot,

  • and by the way I wanted to let you guys know that in America

  • people decorate inside their homes but also outside their homes.

  • And a lot of outdoor Christmas decorations are found inside this store.

  • Let's go ahead and check it out.

  • I'm outside Home Depot and out here they sell real Christmas trees.

  • And this is a real pine tree and you can tell it's real by the smell of it.

  • It smells fresh and these trees are all different.

  • They have different sizes.

  • This is 8 to 9 feet tall and this one over here is 6 to 7 feet tall.

  • So these Christmas trees are perfect for your home

  • because you can see which one you like and which one you want to buy.

  • Christmas trees can be fresh-cut or real or they can be artificial.

  • And I'm sure Home Depot has artificial Christmas trees inside but this is a real Christmas tree.

  • Also, Christmas trees can be used indoors or outdoors.

  • And now I want to ask you guys...

  • Do you guys normally buy a real Christmas tree like this one or an artificial tree?

  • And the price of a real Christmas tree is $109.98 for this 8 to 9-foot tall Christmas tree

  • but over here obviously, because this real Christmas tree is a lot shorter (this one is 6 to 7 feet tall)

  • This costs just $64.98.

  • Home Depot sells outdoor Christmas trees which are real pine trees or fir trees

  • and inside the store, they sell artificial or fake trees.

  • So these trees are on display (these are all a display)

  • but behind me, right over here, they have the actual boxes that the Christmas trees will come in

  • so you will purchase this box and you will actually have to build this Christmas tree from the bottom to the top.

  • Each artificial Christmas tree hasdifferent price because some come with lights and some don't come with lights.

  • So this Christmas tree costs $299.

  • Also, these Christmas trees are a lot more expensive compared to the other trees (the real Christmas trees that are outside).

  • But personally, I think having a fake Christmas tree (an artificial one) is a great deal because you can have it for more years

  • You can have this tree for 10 years and not get sick of it but if you have a real Christmas tree it'll obviously die afterto 4 weeks.

  • Look how big these Christmas ornaments are!

  • Each one is $6 and I feel I wouldn't put this on my six-foot tree right here

  • I feel like this would go on like a 10 or 15-foot tree.

  • And of course inside Home Depot they have more outdoor decorations that you can put outside your home in your front or backyard.

  • And what is this animal called?

  • This is called a reindeer (a reindeer).

  • And a reindeer is famous in Christmas because he will pull Santa's sleigh (reindeers pull Santa's sleigh)

  • and the most famous reindeer is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

  • Well sorry I have to put your head back but Rudolph has a red nose.

  • Talking about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer...

  • Did you guys know that he has a famous Christmas song?

  • It goes like...

  • Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

  • had a very shiny nose

  • and if you ever saw it

  • you would even say it glows.

  • Let me know down below if you guys know that Christmas song.

  • And let me know if you guys listen to American Christmas music.

  • Can you guys tell me what this is called?

  • This is a Nutcracker (Nutcracker)

  • and a nutcracker is normally inside homes and is used for indoor decoration.

  • And you might be wondering... A nutcracker cracks nuts?

  • Well yes, he can crack nuts because if you open up his mouth you can put a nut in there and crack it

  • but he's normally not made for that.

  • He's normally just indoor decoration and this Nutcracker issoldier (he's a soldier) and he's playing the drums.

  • And this box comes in a two-piece set.

  • This isset of Nutcrackers and I'm going to buy one for me and then I'm going to give one to my dad.

  • And of course, Christmas wouldn't be special without Christmas lights.

  • These are Christmas lights and they can be used for indoor Christmas lights or outdoor lights.

  • Of course, the smaller lights would go on your Christmas tree and the bigger lights would be used outdoors.

  • And what is this called?

  • This is a candy cane (candy cane)

  • and this is an LED candy cane so it'll go outside your house and it'll actually light up.

  • This candy cane costs $19.98 and it comes in a three-pack

  • so there are actually three candy canes inside the set.

  • And before leaving this store, Home Depot, I want to show you guys more outdoor decorations they have.

  • They have a nativity set of three and they also have Yoda.

  • I'm going to press this button and see what he says...

  • Really wonderful the celebrations of this season will be...

  • Have much fun together we will

  • Hehehehehehehe

  • He's cute but I feel like he's kind of creepy at the same time because he talks.

  • Right now I'm waiting in the checkout line  and I'm going to buy these nutcrackers.  

  • Since I'm only buying one item I'm going to use the self-checkout.

  • And then it says pay now.

  • I don't think they have a big bag for this  box

  • but I have my receipt so let's go ahead and check out the next store.

  • Now I'm at the last store at the fourth store and it's called Kroger.

  • It's a grocery store and I have a surprise for you guys.

  • Here they sell real trees (real Christmas trees)

  • I'm super excited and I saved this store the best for last because I will buy a real Christmas tree.

  • Let's go ahead and check out their Christmas trees.

  • This is my second time buying a real  Christmas tree

  • and right now I'm going to show you guys and give you some tips

  • about buying real Christmas trees.

  • So when you're looking for a real Christmas tree

  • you have to stand it upright like this

  • and then give it a good shake

  • and you don't want to have a tree where all  the bristles or the needles fall off

  • because that means the tree is not healthy.

  • So I'm not going to pick this tree because most of the needles are falling on the ground.

  • Outside Kroger they have a bunch of different Christmas trees with different prices

  • and each tree varies depending  on their height and their size

  • and you can look around and check out each Christmas tree

  • and see which one you would like to buy for your home

  • And how do you buy a Christmas tree?

  • How do you purchase a Christmas tree?

  • Well, do you pick up the Christmas tree, take it inside, and buy it there?

  • No...

  • So normally you will just go to the cashier, you will check out at the checkout counter,

  • and you will say "Hey I'm buying a Christmas tree",

  • and then you'll say the price of the Christmas tree,

  • and then you will check out, you will buy the Christmas tree, and put it in your car.

  • Now I'm going to take a couple of minutes and look around at all of the different Christmas trees and pick my favorite one.

  • This Christmas tree is 6 to 7 feet tall

  • and it's one of my favorite ones because it's taller than me

  • and when I shake this Christmas tree the bristles or the needles do not fall on the ground

  • which means this tree is healthy and  now I'm going to walk inside the grocery store,

  • hand the cashier this blue ticket, and then  she'll scan this,

  • and then she'll know the price of this tree, I'll pay for it, and then I'll grab this tree and put it in my trunk.

  • Kroger also sells seasonal items like  candles, wreaths, ornaments, Christmas stockings and many more.

  • But they mostly focus on candy.

  • Right behind me their shelves are full of candy

  • So a lot of people will come here and buy  Christmas candy or regular candy

  • but the outside of the package is decorated specifically for Christmas

  • and the most important part about buying a real Christmas tree is buyingChristmas tree stand.

  • So the trunk of the tree will go inside here

  • and then you will tighten the  tree with these plastic screws.

  • I already have a Christmas tree stand from last year

  • so I'm not going to buy this but if you buy an artificial tree (a fake tree)

  • you will not need this stand because a fake tree will already come with a stand.

  • So if you guys didn't know Kroger also  sells clothes

  • and right now they are selling Christmas sweaters

  • but not any type of Christmas  sweater...

  • An ugly Christmas sweater.

  • This one has a gray cat on it and I think it's pretty ugly.

  • Let me know down below if you guys would wear this ugly Christmas sweater

  • to an event, toChristmas party, or for Christmas.

  • They also have some other Christmas sweaters like this red one that has a llama on it.

  • I am trying this sweater on to see if I like it.

  • What do you guys think?

  • Should I wear this for Christmas?

  • Should I wear this to a Christmas party?

  • Let me know down below.

  • And this one looks like a gingerbread man.

  • I like how each sweater has a different design.

  • This one looks like a gingerbread man,

  • the one I'm wearing has a llama on it,

  • this one has a cat.

  • There are a variety of Christmas sweaters you can choose from.

  • Also, let me check the price tag and see  how much this costs.

  • This costs $60 but it has a 60% discount so it will be $24.

  • I think that's a great price especially for an ugly Christmas sweater.

  • I just bought this Christmas tree it cost  $64.99

  • and now I'm ready to put it in the back of my car

  • but I have a really small car so hopefully  this tree will fit since it's pretty tall.

  • Thank God I'm using my hatchback and  somehow this big 'ole Christmas tree fit inside.

  • I'm surprised that the Christmas tree  fit inside my car (my hatchback)

  • and now I'm going to close the trunk and then go to my house

  • because I'm ready to decorate my Christmas tree.

  • Okay guys! I just finished putting up my Christmas tree (my real Christmas tree)

  • and all of the Christmas ornaments and tree decorations were bought last year

  • and it looked looks incredible!

  • Don't you think?

  • Also, do you guys normally put up a Christmas tree (a real one or a fake one)?

  • Let me know down below...

  • And right now I don't have presents because I'm waiting for Santa Claus to bring them

  • but the only present that I want this year is for all of you guys

  • to click that subscribe button and like  and share this video.

  • I'll see you guys next week.

  • Bye!

Hey guys! It's Ariannita la Gringa and  welcome back to my YouTube Channel.
