In this lesson, you can learn useful language for going shopping in English.

to arrange delivery, and how to take something back to a shop.

But now, let's see how you can use English when you go shopping.

Yes, I've found this blue jacket, but I can only find L and XL sizes.

I'm afraid we're sold out, but we do have the same style in brown.

Yes, that's nice, too, but I really like the blue.

It's the end of the season, so we're getting some new styles in from next week.

The ones you see here are the last we have in stock.

If you want, you could check our website; it might be possible to order it online.

Thanks, but I need something for a party this weekend, plus I don't like to buy clothes

In the dialogue, you heard some useful language related to buying clothing.

If you can't find what you need in a shop, what could you say?

In the dialogue, you heard, 'Do you have it in a medium?'

You could use this question in other ways.

For example: 'Do you have this in a small?'

You could also use 'I'm looking for…' to say what you want.

For example: 'I'm looking for a formal dress to wear to a wedding.'

Or: 'I'm looking for some running shoes.'

Next, look at three phrases from the dialogue.

'Sold out' means that they've sold everything, so this product isn't available any more.

For example, if you say that 'Tickets for the concert have sold out', you mean that

all the tickets have been sold, and you can't buy tickets now.

'Get in' is a phrasal verb which can mean 'have a product delivered'.

It's generally used to talk about shops and products which they sell.

For example, a shop assistant might say, 'We're getting more sizes in next Monday.'

That means that new products will be delivered next Monday, and you'll be able to find

'In stock' means available, so you can buy the thing.

If a shop assistant says 'We're out of stock at the moment', he or she is telling

Next, let's see how you can talk about prices, deals and discounts when shopping.

I'm interested in buying these chairs, but I can't see a price tag.

] Forty-nine ninety-nine each, or one hundred and eighty-five ninety-nine for the set of

I saw an advertisement that said they're buy one get one free.

I know the ones you mean; they're just over here.

One is seventy-nine ninety-nine, or two nine nine ninety-nine for a set of four.

Of course, with the buy one get one offer, you can buy two for seventy-nine ninety-nine,

Yes, just write down the number which is here, or take a picture with your phone.

Pay at the cash register, then go to the collection point to get your products.

Normally, yes, but your loyalty discount can't be used with other offers like this.

If you want to know how much something costs, you can ask a simple question: 'How much

You could also ask in a slightly more formal way, as in: 'Can you tell me how much … are?'

For example: 'Can you tell me how much these trousers are?'

'Can you tell me how much this electric toothbrush is?'

In spoken English, people sometimes don't read full numbers, especially numbers between

Instead, they break the number into parts.

So, instead of 'four hundred (and) forty-nine', you might hear 'four-four-nine'.

This doesn't happen all the time, but it's not unusual, either.

For numbers above one thousand, the number is often broken into two parts.

So, instead of 'one thousand two hundred (and) seventy-five', you might hear 'twelve
