Shopping in Britain
To buy food in Britain people usually go to the baker's, to the
butcher's, to the sweet shop or to the greengrocer's. If you need
either sugar or rice, you go to the grocer's. If you need fish, you
like milk or cream.
But nowadays supermarkets become more and more popular.
They use the self-service system. It means you walk round the
shop and choose what you want. You can use trolleys. At the exit
you pay for all your goods at the cashier.

If you are a traveller in Britain, you should know some popular
shops and supermarkets. Sainsbury's are very big supermarkets.
They are for richer people who want to do shopping once a week
or even once a month. Tesco supermarkets are leaders, too. But
they sell goods at cheaper prices. British Home Stores (BHS) is a
group of large shops selling mainly clothes and other products for
the houses.
