Tell me about your shopping habits

On weekdays, my mother does the shopping for the family. However, at weekends I always help my mum with the shopping. I often go to small shops or groceries, because the food is fresher and the atmosphere is friendlier there.

I know the shop assistants and I can have a small conversation with them. One problem people have with small groceries is that the range of goods is very limited. Another major disadvantage is that these shops tend to be quite pricy.

But sometimes I go to bigger supermarkets, hypermarkets and department stores, because they are cheaper and they have a wider choice. I normally buy meat products, cold cuts, sweets, drinks and toiletries there.

I shop for clothes at bigger shopping centres/malls, because they are cheaper and you can find all kinds of styles there. People prefer bigger shopping facilities, because they may be cheaper and the range of goods is wider.

However, these shops are very impersonal and rural people may have to travel a lot to these places. It is better to go shopping with friends, because I don’t get bored, and they can help me choose the best dress.

Oh, before I forget! I really hate standing in the line/queue at the till/cash register. And I always pay in cash, because my parents never let me pay by credit card.

Online shopping and traditional shopping

What do you think of online shopping? Online shopping is catching on because it’s comfortable, you can get discounts and the product is delivered to your home.

Online shopping is convenient because you can order products without travelling to a shop. You can compare prices, look at different brands and choose from a wide range of products.

You have to be careful with payment so that hackers cannot access your bank account. It is also important to check the shipping conditions, the payment method and the rules concerning returns and refunds.

Traditional shopping has different advantages. At a small shop, the atmosphere is friendlier, shop assistants are more polite and helpful and the quality of the goods may be better.

In a hypermarket, everything is in one place, there is a big variety of products, you can find good bargains and there are often sales with discounts. There is a self-service, you only have to queue up at the checkout, and there is also a big car park next to the market place.

However, they are usually on the edge of the town and you sometimes end up spending more than you wanted. A further disadvantage of large shopping facilities is that they are very impersonal.

Useful shopping vocabulary

Az internetes rendelés folyamata

To do online shopping means to buy goods or services on the Internet. First, you usually have to sign up or log in to the website. When you log in or log on, or log into a computer system, you start using the system, usually by typing your name or identity code and a password.

After choosing a product, you can add it to cart. This means that you put a product in a virtual bag to be paid for later. You can also add a product to your wish list if you want to save it so that you can purchase it later.

When you have finished shopping, you proceed to Checkout. Checkout is the place on a website where you order and pay for goods.

My Account contains your personal details and a record of your purchases. Shipping Conditions include the terms and details of a website’s delivery policies.

Payment is an amount of money that has been paid or is expected to be paid. A coupon is a voucher that customers can use to buy goods and services at a lower price, or to get them free.

A termékek visszaküldése és a pénzvisszatérítés

Returns & Refunds refers to the process when a customer sends an item back to a store or warehouse. Customers usually have to return an item before they get a refund.

A refund means giving the customer all or some of their money back for an unwanted item. If your purchase turns out to be faulty, you have to keep the receipt to prove where you bought the product and you can make a complaint.

They will exchange the product for you or repair it or you can ask for a refund. A receipt is therefore important because it can help you prove the place and circumstances of the purchase.

Vásárlás családi környezetben

It is my mum who usually does the shopping in my family. We tend to buy groceries in a small shop nearby and bulky stuff in a supermarket at the weekend.

Daily goods include bread and rolls, milk, cheese, butter and yoghurt, eggs and chocolate. Bakery products are bread and rolls, while dairy products include milk, cheese, butter and yoghurt.

At weekends I always help my mum with the shopping. I don’t mind shopping for groceries, clothes, shoes, books and presents for people I love.

Kisboltok, szupermarketek és plázák

Small shops and groceries often have a friendlier atmosphere. The food may be fresher, and it is possible to know the shop assistants and have a small conversation with them.

One problem people have with small groceries is that the range of goods is very limited. Another major disadvantage is that these shops tend to be quite pricy.

In a hypermarket, everything is in one place, there is a big variety of products, you can find good bargains and there are often sales with discounts. People prefer bigger shopping facilities, because they may be cheaper and the range of goods is wider.

However, these shops are very impersonal and rural people may have to travel a lot to these places. In a hypermarket, you sometimes end up spending more than you wanted.

Shopping centres and malls are popular places to buy clothes. You can find all kinds of styles there, and the prices may be lower than in smaller shops.

Fizetés és biztonság

I always pay in cash, because my parents never let me pay by credit card. Online shopping usually requires an electronic payment method, although some websites may offer other possibilities.

You have to be careful with payment so that hackers cannot access your bank account. It is important to protect your personal details and use a secure payment system.

Banks offer a wide choice of services. They deal with savings, payment services, lending, insurance, foreign currency exchanges, leasing, giving advice on investments, and so on.

Nowadays more and more banks provide telebanking services. It means that people use their phones or the internet to give orders to the banks to carry out different kinds of business transactions for them.

Akciók, kuponok és tudatos vásárlás

A sale is an occasion when things are sold in order to make money. Customers may find good bargains and discounts during sales.

A coupon is a voucher that customers can use to buy goods and services at a lower price, or to get them free. Price comparison can help customers choose a suitable product.

However, a lower price does not always mean that a purchase is necessary. In a hypermarket, you sometimes end up spending more than you wanted.

People who cannot resist the temptation and buy everything are called shopaholics. There are as well as people called workaholics and chocaholics.

Részletfizetés és pénzügyi kockázatok

People buy expensive things, such as a flat, a car and electric appliances, on hire purchase. Firstly, you have to make a deposit, then you pay monthly instalments and interests, so you end up paying more than the original price.

It’s easy to get into trouble if you run up huge debts and you cannot pay them. Financial responsibility means thinking carefully about your expenses and not buying things that you cannot afford.
