Local shops

When we shop at our local supermarket, we spend at least £80 on food every week. This is because my
family is big. I have two brothers and one sister. So including myself, my mum and dad, in total there are
six people in our household. We avoid shopping at the small groceries shops because they are
expensive. Sometimes my mum and I go to the local market, Saturday is market day. Local produce is
fresh and cheap. My mum does most of the shopping in our family.
