Welcome to English as a Second Language Podcast number 111: Last Minute Holiday Shopping.
This is English as a Second Language Podcast episode 111. I’m your host, Dr. Jeff McQuillan from the Center for Educational Development in beautiful Los Angeles, California.
On this podcast, we’re going to talk about last minute holiday shopping. Let’s go!
Every year, I tell myself that I won't procrastinate in doing my holiday shopping. And, every year, I end up with a shopping list as long as your arm and about 24 hours to get it all done. Waiting until the last minute means that I have to brave the crowds out doing their last minute shopping.
First, I have to find a place to park in the parking lot, which is always packed. Then, I have to fight off the bargain hunters who are there for the holiday markdowns. With so many shoppers, the shelves are usually a mess and a lot of items are out of stock. When I've finally picked out what I want to buy, there are usually long lines at the register. Just when I'm about to check out, I always remember that I've forgotten one last thing. It never fails!
