Shopping

I'm just looking, thanks.

💡 Staff asks 'Can I help you?' — use this if you don't want to be bothered yet

Do you have this in size M?

💡 Do you have... in size X · Also works with color / style

Do you have it in another color?

💡 Another color · in red = red one / in black = black one

Is this in stock?

💡 In stock = available · Out of stock = sold out · Back order = on order

Where is the men's section?

💡 Men's / Women's / Kids sections · Large stores have clear divisions

Could I try this on?

💡 Try on = put on to test · Use for clothes / glasses / shoes

Where's the fitting room?

💡 Fitting room / Dressing room — both work · May need a key from staff

It's a bit too small.

💡 Too X = too much of X · big / small / tight / loose / short / long

It's a bit too big.

💡 Opposite of too small · If it fits = 'It fits well'

Is this on sale?

💡 On sale = discounted · % off = how much off · Final sale = no more discounts

Could I get a discount?

💡 Big chains rarely bargain · Markets are flexible · 'Could I get' is polite

I'll take it.

💡 I'll take it = I'll buy it · Short and confident · Staff starts ringing up

I'll leave it, thanks.

💡 Leave it = won't buy · Add 'thanks' to be polite, not rude

Let me think about it.

💡 Think about it = need time · Staff will back off politely

How much is it in total?

💡 Total = grand total · Including tax = with VAT · Some countries show tax separately
