线话英语|2015-05-08 16:42:27

    作为一名资深的购物狂(shopaholic),最喜欢乐意见到的少不了下面三件事,咱们一边练习口语,一边学习起来吧1

  1. 购物狂最喜欢的两个日子是?

  Black Friday(感恩节后第二天)跟Boxing Day(圣诞后第二天)。 为什么?这两天都是销售旺季啊!Black Friday标志着Christmas Shopping Season的开始:

  On this day, many retailers open very early, often at 4 a.m., or earlier, and offer promotional sales to kick off the shopping season. Black Friday is not actually a holiday, but many employers give their employees the day off, increasing the number of potential shoppers。

 

  这一天商店开门都会很早,凌晨四点就会开门,诚然不是法定节假日,但基本上这一天都会放假,无形中给了大家购物的机会。

  Boxing Day中文里称之为节礼日,这一天商家都会打折,所以是购物的好日子:

  In Britain, Canada, New Zealand and some states of Australia, Boxing Day is primarily known as a shopping holiday, much like the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. It is a time where shops have sales, often with dramatic price decreases. For many merchants, Boxing Day has become the day of the year with the greatest revenue。

 

  在英国、加拿大、新西兰跟澳大利亚一些地区,节礼日的意思跟美国的Black Friday一样,是货真价实的购物日,这一天各处都有打折,商家在这一天的收益几乎是全年最多的。

      那么,在我们中国是哪一天呢?不用说,大家都知道的“双十一”,这可算是购物空前绝后的盛况呀,一天就可让商家们笑的合不拢嘴。

  2. 购物之后,除了商品,还有什么不能忘记? 内容来自www.yingyuzhijia.com

  不要忘拿receipt(收据),上面通常会印有Exchange and refund policy:90day exchange,30day refund with tags.90天之内可以更换商品,30天内能够退货(商品完好的状况下)

 

  3. 除了节假日打折,还有哪些省钱妙招? 容来自www.yingyuzhijia.com

  节假日之外咱们还可能用到coupon,优惠券;一般商场里平时也会有降价出售以吸引人气的商品,这种称为loss leader。超市或者便利店里还有送积分的活动,这种叫做frequent shopper program,买的多,积分多,个别就会有折扣或者礼物。想当一个职业的购物狂嘛?买东西前真的要多做homework哦~
