The First Grocery Shopping Experience

I have watched lots of you tube videos of the Sri Lankan those who are living in a foreign countries. I most like their grocery shopping videos. In those countries they have different brands for the same type of item and most attractive thing is the price. After moving to my new home for a little time period, we decided to go for shopping to buy some groceries. Since this is new experience for me, I thought to share with you.

We went to shopping mall called Dalma Mall. It is a kind of large shopping mall in this area. It contains lots of shops. Clothing shops, jewelry shops, perfume shops, shoes shops, food shops, cafes and many more. Lot of branded shops can be found in this mall. It a very clean and beautiful. It just like a bigger version of our One Galle Face mall.

Considering the prices are higher same like our One Galle Face shopping mall. But contain high quality items. We went to the Carrefour shop. It just like a food city. We can buy vegetables, fruits, bakery items, nuts, honey, milk, cheese, drinks, makeups items, clothes, electric items. Actually everything that we need for our houses are there. According my husband, the prices of here is reasonable. There are some offers also there. Prices deduction or buy 1 get 1 free like offer were there.

First we went to vegetable corner and buy some vegetable that we need for 1 week. We buy button mushroom, onion and radish. Next we went to the fruit corner. You can fund every type of fruits and vegetable there from different counties. The price tag are mentioned the country and price of them. We can buy anything we like. I saw our king coconut there and that was the only thing of our country item in this mall.

When we walk in this shop a lady invited us to taste the honey. She sell honey from different countries. It was very tasty and also the price also very high. After that we went to the makeup item corner because there was an offer section there. Shampoo, cream and many more items were there. I bought my favorite cream from there.

Next we went to the clothing item corner. Because there was a sale there. I bought two items from there. Furthermore we bought yoghurts, eggs and mango drink from the shops. As I remember the total price was 150 AED. It is more than 10,000 when we convert it into Rs. But when we are earing in AED it is a small amount. Considering food expense in here is very low comparing to our country. I wish one day we all can feel the same in our country too.
