I love the lessons by OOE
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.

What i like most about shopping is finding the exact thing you've bern looking for and what i dislike most is feeling tired afterwards.
Nice! Thanks for sharing, Iva!
Thanks you guys.I love this video very much.As a girl,I don't like going shopping.It lets me feel very tired.Instead of shopping in the mall，I prefer to shop online. But shopping online will take a lot of time to choose what you want.Maybe the one you bought doesn't fit you.
Very nice! Excellent answer, thank you for sharing and watching!
Sooooo useful😍
It's useful lesson
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.
So glad you like the lessons, Ali! Thanks for sharing your response.

You're welcome, Asif! Thanks for the kind comment.
Nice
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.
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.'
Hope this is useful for you!
While shopping the toughest things that I find are choosing clothes , negotiating the price in front of others, carrying the bags uff that all takes biscuits.
Yes, that is true Mohit! Thanks for watching and sharing!
Thanks for making this video♥️♥️
Our pleasure, Sloom!
I've never returned goods to the store. But now I know what to say if I'll have to do it. ;)
Great, Albert!
i like online shopping because i dont like the crowd in local markets also i remember i bought a top from a local market without trying it on and when i got home and tried it on it did not fit all the money i spent on that top was wasted. so now i prefer online shopping since it is easy to return the product if it doesnt fit or look good on me.
Hello sir and mam .. Going for shopping would be a great fealing for me every time I shop but ever since this pandemic happened we are longing for those colourful streets where we do window shopping and enjoy each view .
Yes , i did have a problem. I went to the local penny (it's a small shop) to buy some sugar and lemon juice , but i did not find them anywhere. i asked a worker but this didn't help 'cause the shop was that bad. And whenever i go to this shop i always face this problem again. So now i don't like to shop in penny.
Thanks for sharing, Selumiel!
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.
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...'.
Hope this helps you!
Thank you on this vedio
You're welcome!
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!
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!
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.
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!
I am a sedent tanks
When item back in stock?
Is sentence correct?
Continue
Thanks for your comment, Burhan!
Sometimes I go to shop to only see which new products they have, i.e., without an idea about specific product. What is the correct asnwer when sale assistant asks me: "Hello, do you need any help?" I would like to answer something like: "No, thanks, i am just checking new products". How to say this phrase correctly? Thanks!
Good question. There are a few things you could say. Some examples are: 'No thanks, I'm just looking,' or, 'No thanks, I'm just browsing'. Hope this helps you!
Well, i always enjoy shopping as it rejuvenate me and I get new clothes. I, sometime feel bad, when I loose appearls due to size mis match. I vividly remember that one day when i experienced the same. It was 3 days ago when I likes a lee trouser for myself and I am so glad at that moment since I have selected it by neglecting 10-15 trouser. However, the situation became odd when salesman told that he did not have my size for the same. It was a nightmare for me
Nice, Bavleen! Here are a few suggestions for you:
1) '...as it rejuvenates me,' not, 'rejuvenate'.
2) 'Sometimes I feel bad when...' not, 'I, sometime feel bad...'.
3) '...when I wanted a pair of Lee trousers for...' not, '...when I likes a lee trouser for...'.
Hope this is useful for you!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 definitely, it is useful
Yes, last year, I bought a notebook and after few months, it started to have problems. Then, I needed to request a refund of the price paid for.
Good example, Leonardo.
Thank you so much for teaching ☺️
I have as question
Somethims I need ask the a shop assistant "when Products are Back in Stock" . Is this sentence correct?

We're so glad you found the lessons helpful, Duy! Here are some corrections for your writing:
1) '...this video,' or, 'these videos,' not, 'this videos.'

Hi I am Ali from UK if you are interested please contact me.
Hi .I have a question please please please help me its so important .when I'm shopping and someone calls me and asks me where I am and if I reply I'm at clothes store is it correct?
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!
@@Oxfordonlineenglish1 thank you very much you helped me alot thank you
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 prefer wearing a floral-print dress in the summer or plain white trousers with a patterned silk shirt. It makes me look younger.
Thanks for that informations you gave it to us , I would like took about my experience about shopping.Ilike shopping for makeup and skin care products, one a time I bought a hyaluronic acid but, it causes me a skin allergies . Afterthat I headed into the store and I contacted with a company and the had no idea about what had happened.I thought that was too much Hassle,i was so frustrated by how they treated the situation.Finally,I asked them to returned it and got me a refund,until now I have no clue what was the reason for what happened may be my skin is sensitive for this products,!!
Thanks for watching and sharing. We're so glad you found the lesson useful. Here are some corrections for you:
1) '...bought some hyaluronic acid...' not, 'a.'
