Topic 6. Shops and Shopping
Shops and Shopping in London
Most of London’s big department stores and rich shops are in the West End.
One of the most popular shopping centres in the West End as well as in London is Oxford Street. Its nice shops and department stores attract people from all over the country and foreigners too. It is always crowded with shoppers especially at sales times, in January and July.
Shops and department stores are open every day till 6 o’clock except on Sundays. If you can’t go shopping during the day you can make a purchase on Thursday after office hours, at the shops close at 8 o’clock in Oxford Street on that day.
One of the largest department stores in Oxford Street is Selfridge’s. It has about 235 different departments:
Men’s and Women’s Wear, Ready-Made Children’s Clothes, Bedding, Confectionary, Stationery, Hardware, Electrical Goods and many others.
Selfridge’s is a very expensive department store that is why most Londoners prefer to go to cheaper shops: Marks & Spencer’s for clothes and supermarkets for food.
Marks & Spencer’s is a self-service chain store. It sells quality goods at reasonable prices, therefore it is very popular.
Supermarkets, many of which are chain stores too, sell not only food but household goods too.
Hypermarkets have become especially popular recently. They are very big supermarkets (usually) outside London with parking lots for customers, who come shopping in their cars and buy food for a whole week.
