Thank you very much, Daniel and Marie, for your interesting topic. I want to show my admiration for the teaching skill that Daniel has presented the topic here. I felt very pleased to hear his voice and see his body language. I think he is not only a teacher but also an artist at the same time. I have watched this clip 9 times and now I will watch another of your topics. Thanks again.

Just two days ago i decided to make my hotel's reservations online, because i gonna travel abroad soon. I was excited because a found good prices, so i paid everything in one morning, by card. One hour later, i noticed that i made a really big mistake. I Changed the dates! Almost all the hotels asked for a expensive charge to cancel or change the reservations. I think i'd lost about 1000 euros. So i tried to fix my mistakes. I emailed the hotels asking to have some mercy and to forgive the charges, and i prayed to God :D. Fortunelly, the owners forgiven my debt, and so i was able to buy the right rooms, in the correct dates. I've never been so afraid in my life, but God saved me at this situation. I'd like to thank you for all help that you offers to us. This channel is the best on you tube. I've been learn a lot with you in the last 3 months, studying everyday. Thank you a lot!

Something I dislike when I go shopping is; when seller has agreed to sell something to me for a certain price then he/she denies to deliver it to me just because it appears to be cheaper than he/she expected. This had happened to me one day, I wanted to buy a *tv* but unfortunately that seller was out of stock for that moment, he called someone else if he had one of the model I asked him. Fortunately there were two sizes of the same model I wanted, he gave me the price for both, but what he made me angry was when he came with the products he wanted me to take the small one with the same price that I had granted him for the bigger one since he found out that the price was a bit cheaper than they got used of selling that product. Thank you for your videos, they surely help many of English learners.

The things I like shopping at the mall is, there is so many things to do, many choices, many items, many brands that you want to buy and get all at one place. You can try cloths that you want to buy and don't need worry about getting wrong sizes. You could also negotiate the prices. But in my country, all the shopping mall they don't gives like refunding.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Ashik. Thank you for watching the lesson and sharing a great response. Here are some corrections for you: 1) 'The things I like about shopping at the mall are...' not, 'The things I like shopping at the mall is...' 2) '...there are so many things to do,' not, 'is.' 3) '...get all in one place,' not, 'at.'

The things I dislike about the shopping at the mall is so crowded and it's difficult to looking for a parking especially on pay day and at the end of the months. Positive things shopping at the mall is, there is so many things to do, many choices, many items, many brands that you want to buy and get all at one place. You can try the clothes that you want to buy and don't need to worry about getting wrong sizes. You could also negotiate the prices and you might get a season sales or monthly sales which is not given to online customers. But in my country, all the shopping mall they don't give services like refunding and exchanging the clothes and things what you've bought expect warranty items such as phones, laptops, cars and so on. But I think there is options for VIP customers despite they didn’t buy for warranty items. That is a one thing that I want to get services like other countries even though I bought small amount. Hope you enjoying reading it and waiting for your response.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Thanks for watching and sharing, Zunthu! Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) 'The thing I dislike about shopping at the mall is...' not, 'The things I dislike about the shopping at the mall is...'. 2) '...is that it's so crowded and it's difficult to...' not, '...is so crowded and it's difficult to...'. 3) '...it's difficult to look for parking, especially on...' not, '...it's difficult to looking for a parking especially on...'.

When item back in stock? Is sentence correct?

I rly like shopping, it s my quality time, but I hate when something doesn t fit in, or If i changed my mind about the color, so i have to go back to the store, exchange the item, or ask for a refund. I always check my receipt and the card i paid with.I ask also about the delivery service and arrange everything(set up)with the shop assistant.

I think I've never had a problem when buying something from a store, but once I bought a PS controller from some guy on Facebook, then tried it out and wasn't working properly; I asked him for a refund and he wouldn't gave me my money back!!! (After he'd say he would if I wasn't satisfied). After some time he just ignored my messages and ran out with the money hahahaha Lesson learned always try out your electronics before paying!

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Nice response. Thanks for sharing. Here are a few suggestions for you: 1) '...tried it out and it wasn't working properly,' not, '...tried it out and wasn't working properly'. 2) '...he wouldn't give me my money back,' not, 'gave'. 3) 'After he'd said he would if I...' not, 'say'. Hope this helps you!

[@abdallajama1377]

First of all Shopping is very important topic for english learners since it is part of daily things that every needs to do. If I tell something about shopping stories that I've experienced, It was last week When I went to the mall to buy variety of thigs and I returned a rice to them, I told them that I decided to buy another kind of rice. They asked me to show the receipt that they gave me when I bought this product and I showed them but unfortunately the rice I was looking for was just stocked out.

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Abdalla. Thanks for watching and sharing. Here are some corrections for you: 1) '...buy a variety of things,' not, '...buy variety of thigs.' 2) Did you return a 'bag of rice' or 'a box of rice'? 'Rice' itself is uncountable so we can't 'return a rice'. Hope this is useful for you!

Hi there. It would be correct to say: 'I'm at the store' in general, or, 'I'm at the clothes store'. It's also more common to name the specific store you're at. Hope this helps!

Women love shopping! Online shopping isn't fun, plus I don't like to buy clothes without trying them on first. It is difficult to find something fit on me because I am a little underweight.

I have two Questions please: 1. why did you say: "we're sold out" and not they have been sold out? What's is that contraction for? (we're) is it important? Cause it refers to human beings as far as I can see. 2. Did I hear phrase like gift-about in part four what does it mean?

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Hi Malek. Good questions! 1) 'We're' is a contraction for 'we are.' That means currently, the store is sold out. 2) You can see the lesson transcript on the website to check your question about the phrase in part four.
