Shopping in the City
Last Saturday, my sister and I went shopping in the city. First, we walked around the mall. She bought a pair of boots and I found a jacket on sale. After that, we visited a small store next to the park. I bought two T-shirts there. They were cheap and comfortable.
We stopped for coffee and talked about what we bought. My sister said, “You should buy more from that shop!” I agreed. Next weekend, we are going to take our cousin with us. She will love the colorful dresses!
Shopping is more fun when we do it together. We always find something nice and spend good time as a family.
