TASK: IN A SHOP

Hello all of you,

Here we go with the third task.  Through this new task we are going to buy some products in some shops, we are going to make a consumer interview, we are going to sell some products and we are going to move around a shopping centre.

So, choose one task and do it.  Most of them are role plays, so you will have to do an spoken activity to an audience.

Here you are the different tasks and here you are the Harrods Store website which is located in London just to have a look at it.

1.-  Prepare a role-play with a partner.  You are in a Department Store, so choose any shop and buy what you want.  One of you will be the shop-assistant or the seller and the other one will be the customer.  Make as many questions as you want and ask for the information you need in order to get a good product and to achieve a real satisfaction.

2.-  Make a notice or a wall chart to put in the main hall of an important Shopping Centre.  The notice will show all the shops and services as well as the different floors where they are located.

3.-  Look at and write down in a list different useful sentences that can be used in different shops while you are buying some products, some food, some clothes, some goods,... Try to be polite!

4.-  In couples, make an interview about your partner's consumer habits, you can ask and answer what you want, it's your election.

5.- You have to spend 2000 Euros in Harrods this evening since you have just received a gift voucher from one of your best friends, but it is necessary to buy at least 6 different articles, so explain where are you going to buy them, I mean in which section inside the Department Store, how much are they separately and how much are they altogether as well as why have you chosen them. 

6.-  You want to sell something you don't need it any more, so put an advert on the newspaper and try to encourage the possible customers to buy it.  Give as much information as possible about the product and its characteristics and the way to contact you.  (Pay attention to the adjective order).

All the best,

Loli
