vary. It may be a self-service shop where the customer

goes from counter to counter selecting and putting into a basket what he wishes to buy. Then he takes the basket to the check-out counter, where the prices of the purchases are added up. If it is not a self-service shop, the shop-assistant helps the customer in finding what he wants. You pay money to the cashier and he gives you back the change. 

Методы торговли могут различаться. Существуют магазины самообслуживания, где покупатель ходит от прилавка к прилавку, выбирает и кладет в корзину то, что он хочет купить. Затем он несет корзину к контрольному прилавку, где стоимость покупок суммируется. Если же в магазине нет самообслуживания, то продавец помогает покупателю подобрать то, что он хочет. Вы платите деньги кассиру, а он дает вам сдачу.

to wear to a formal party.
- What size do you

wear, ma'am?
- Medium, an eight or a ten.
- Let me show you what we have. This dress is very beautiful. It's the latest fashion from Paris. And here's a plaid jacket that matches.
- Plaid? No way! What about this skirt here?
- Good choice. It's made of pure silk. This silk blouse would go with it very well.
- Let me try it on. Where's the dressing room?
Right over here.- Thanks.
(A LITTLE LATER)
- Ah, you look wonderful.
- Really? Isn't the skirt a bit too long?
- We can always make it shorter.
- That's true. How much is it?
- The skirt is $125. And the blouse is on sale, for only $69.
- OK, I'll take it. Listen and repeat

- I bought these pants here the other day, but they're too big. I'd like to return them.
Do you have your receipt with you?
- Sure, here you go.
- Sir, these pants were on sale. We don’t take returns on sale items.
- How about a store credit?
- I'm afraid there are no returns at all on sale merchandise. I'm sorry, there is nothing we can do.
