Costco is not considered a normal grocery store it is a warehouse where large size and quantity shopping is done. Regular normal grocery stores are Save-On Foods, Sobey’s Safeway (Sobey’s owns Safeway), Walmart, No frills, Great Canadian Super Store.
Hi! Thanks for the video about how to shop at grocery store! The new vocabulary: Yam, basket, deli Department, dairy Department, leafy greens...etc. Take care!!
In UAE supermarkets have big shelves in which all items are displayed and fruits & vegetables are kept in separete tables like in Canada and timing of shopping centres are till 12midnight and during Ramadan till early morning 3,30am. I enjoyed your shopping tour
Here in America grocery stores can sell beers, wines and champagnes, although there are specialized stores to sell liquor nearby. Here in the south people call the shopping cart buggy. I like the produce department. Leafy greens are rich in fibers and vitamins and they are good for you. Unfortunately the only vegetable I kids like is broccoli. I eat one yam or sweet potato per day and it is healthy. It is easy to cook. I just put it in the microwave and cook a few minutes. In the United States we have Walmart, Kroger, Costco and Sams Club. Some of them are world famous.
In australia we use the name grocery too, grocery is a small store and super market is larger. Ordinarily grocery only sells food and in super market we can buy almost everything. Bottle-o is what we call a liquor store.
I think i never bought anything in bottle-o 'coz you can buy beer anywhere you want there, even in churches, this is just a joke... not non churches, maybe not, who knows?!?
Good job, teacher! I' m from Brazil and I adore Watching Your classes. They are fantastic and it has been a great opportunity for me to learn English. I always go to The United States, but I have never gone to Canada. It must be a gorgeous country. Next time going to USA, I'll try to Go over there. Thank You for helping me to comunicate better!
You could've talked more. People know how to buy food, but to learn the words and expressions we need to listen to them being spoken by you. Thank you and I hope I can watch another video from you on grocery shopping soon. 🇧🇷Obrigado!
yep, cant agree more. Interesting video, and sometimes I felt I can speak about ideology and politics and stuff, but I can't talk about everyday stuff, cause I've never lived there and experienced those things, like you can always talk about trivial things in your everyday life, like how you calculate the yam's price ? from 🇨🇳, Thanks~
Your lessons are really really bnifcial because the way you speak is understandable and really simple, note: "ice cream is unhealthy we have to avoid junk food" good luck have a nice daaaaay :D.
Finally, I have someone to go shopping with! 🙌🙌 It is not that I am bad at doing it on my own, it is the English part which I am lacking here. 😉 Thank you, Mark! 👌🌟
Mad English TV Ha-ha, my Russian is more than adequate for buying avocados. I'd say it was flawless. 😁 (almost like your Hindi ;P) However, the bitter truth about learning a language is "If you don't use it, you lose it." 😉 Besides, you know, I am in love with English, therefore it gives me an andernaline rush every time when I speak it. 😋🎈🎈🎈
Canada is very strict about cleanliness where food is sold to the public (ie. grocery stores, restaurants, etc). Government inspectors regularly visit these businesses and they are fined (or even closed if it happens too often) if the owners don't respect the regulations.
I have already spoken about this !! Mark - you Big Canadian Encyclopedia - THANK YOU !! ... Now Canada is one of the most interesting countries for me !!! .... Beautiful country! ... Who lives in Canada!?. .. Is there an alien in Canada? .... Good luck! - Of course, I am joking and of course - Canada is a wonderful country! ... And you are the best teacher of English!....100 THANKS!!!.....I learn English with you!
hi mark great lesson what does " I been drawin' plans out" mean? in this context: Say they want respect now Thinking they deserve to have it next now Tell 'em take an I.O.U Leavin' what they makin' up Talking loud but never really sayin' much Tell 'em take an I.O.U "I been drawin' plans out" And they think I'm givin' them a handout Tell 'em take an I.O.U Thinking they're entitled to a piece, No, I don't think so Tell 'em take an I.O.U thank u so much
Wonderful video sharing, Mark! We like it very much. This grocery store is enormous and spacious. Instead, we should have sent you our thank you card for being our teacher. Here you go 🔰📝. Don't worry about the audio sound system, we could hear it clearly. In my opinion, if you eat too much ice cream, you will put on a lot of weight. 😅
Wow. There's no people in such a wide store. Really compared to the one in my community here in Korea. In Korea, you see people in every corner. You have to be careful not to hit people and their carts when passing the aisle of departments.
Thank you so much...the vlog was impressive except the camera in particular when you got in the grocery..it was abit blured. What did you mean by yam??
Marat Loikov Well, there is a saying in Russia for that matter - "If you don't praise yourself, no one will." Right Marat? (just kidding) I guess the equivalent in English would be."If you don't blow your own horn, no one will do it for you."
When you put all of your stuff on the table and wait for checkout, you need to put a stick on the table to seperate your stuff and the next customer's. How to say this in English? Thank you!
Mark. Going to shopping is good but at 10:00 p.m. don't you sleep?. By the way, how do I get at the grocery store if you don't have a car? I ask this question because I didn't see any bus on the highway.
It's very hard to live in Canada without a car. There are buses, but shopping for food would be too inconvenient by bus. You should live within walking distance to a grocery store if you don't have a car.
Well, I still think you're a admirable guy bro, however in all countries the go to shopping is almost the same, one of those issues you got in Canada, is the sun (talking about D vitamin), another thing is not so comfortable is the distance from home to the "SuperMarket" or Grocery Store, well I saw all is far away from home in there, CostCo is around the world, at least in Mexico we have a lot, in every important city have at least 1, many months ago I saw a couple of guys from Texas comparing prices of CostCo in Mexico and CostCo TX, the results was Mexico have cheapest prices in almost all. You know what could be great?, a video about the health system in your country and I know every province have different system, but that information is pretty useful although is not that cheap, here my advice, any dental or expensive procedures is kind useful to know that could be treated in Mexico with a lower price, actually many Gringos come here for it. See ya dude, Peace out!
Haha, nice idea, here is the thing, get enough savings in CAD and here in Mexico for sure you can buy your own house by the way here the houses are made it with bricks, pretty safe and the weather is warm almost all the year... look, with 100,000 CAD you can have a nice house, with 30 CAD you can have all meals of day and for 50 CAD you can have a health specialist consult, ooooh and the beers cost is around 1 CAD each, the cigars around 5 CAD all those aprox. If have some question just ask dude. Have a nice night and peace out!
You said its about 10 pm (timings) than how come its bright outside at night while you were driving ?? When does the sky become dark at night in Canada ??
Canada is a northern country ... the Sun behaves very differently than near the equator. Here's a good explanation: ua-cam.com/video/tFCSwWBAeE0/v-deo.html
There are also "corner stores" pretty much everywhere where you can buy basic necessities like bread and milk. Bigger grocery stores are a little more dispersed.

I am used to walking around difference supermarkets without shopping when I am free because it's fun!
Likewise, in the Dominican Republic the pharmacies are in the supermarket. You can buy a lot medicine over the counter.
Cool! 😃😃

Great channel! thanks a lot for your effort.
Now I am your new student
From India (Delhi).
But in January 2019 I got my PR from north America Ontario.....
Safeway is so expensive, I buy my foods either at superstore or TNT supermarket :)
That's great!
Glad to see you again teacher Mark! You are so kind! Thank you!
Thanks so much! 😃😃
You are such an amazing teacher. Thank you very much.
thank you teacher ! i have learned more and more about Canada !

Finally, I have someone to go shopping with! 🙌🙌 It is not that I am bad at doing it on my own, it is the English part which I am lacking here. 😉 Thank you, Mark! 👌🌟
Well, do you really have a need for shopping in English? I'm pretty sure your Russian is adequate enough to buy a few avocados. 😃😃
Mad English TV Ha-ha, my Russian is more than adequate for buying avocados. I'd say it was flawless. 😁 (almost like your Hindi ;P)
However, the bitter truth about learning a language is "If you don't use it, you lose it." 😉

Haha, that's great! 😃
Interesting! It seems, you even enjoy grocery shopping!
Yes I do! 😃😃
Dear Mad your method to teach us is really great.... as an academic researcher ice cream is healthy but it is important not to eat it so much
😃😃
It's 10pm!! but outside is not dark.🤔I checked on the map, Calgary is not north of Canada.
Safeway looks like a great grocery store, tidy and clean. Please, be careful while you’re driving...
😃😃
Canada is very strict about cleanliness where food is sold to the public (ie. grocery stores, restaurants, etc).
Government inspectors regularly visit these businesses and they are fined (or even closed if it happens too often) if the owners don't respect the regulations.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOUR CHANNEL IS AMAZING.
That was great, thank you so much, I learned many new vocabularies. But I wish the self checkout was open, I have never seen that kind of paying.
Thanks, Mark. Very interesting and useful expressions. Never heard the name "deli" department. This supermarket looks great and very clean.👍👍👍👍
😃😃
Interesting video format! Thank you!

Be careful Mark, don't release your hands from the streering wheel. LOL
Lol
Thank you very much it was very useful.
hi mark
great lesson
what does " I been drawin' plans out" mean? in this context:
Say they want respect now
Thinking they deserve to have it next now
Tell 'em take an I.O.U
Leavin' what they makin' up
Talking loud but never really sayin' much
Tell 'em take an I.O.U
"I been drawin' plans out"
And they think I'm givin' them a handout
Tell 'em take an I.O.U
Thinking they're entitled to a piece,
No, I don't think so
Tell 'em take an I.O.U
thank u so much
It means, "I've been making plans."
Interesting lessons!
You are good at making videos, I love your videos

😃😃
I know the word "produce" here is a noun. Your pronunciation of this word is different from America's. I like this video.

12:02 Thought you’d never offer. You’re welcome 😂
😂😂
Marat Loikov Well, there is a saying in Russia for that matter - "If you don't praise yourself, no one will." Right Marat?
(just kidding)
I guess the equivalent in English would be."If you don't blow your own horn, no one will do it for you."
Julia Novo Exactly! I love fishing for compliments, so I’ll be expecting one or two in that card 😂
When you put all of your stuff on the table and wait for checkout, you need to put a stick on the table to seperate your stuff and the next customer's. How to say this in English? Thank you!
The stick is called a divider.
@@MadEnglishTV Thank you!
thanks ...
what a beautiful grocery store, is there pasta? (I am italian I could’t live without pasta)
Of course there is pasta! Just for you! 🤗
Yep ... we have pasta, pizza, etc ... all the Italian goodies.

Mark
You are running so fast.
Is it dangerous to run there so late?
It's not dangerous. 😃
Mark, in Canada, what time is it absolutely dark? In my country, at 7 p.m, it' s dark already.
5pm in the winter.
ice cream would be good compared to chips 👌
😃😃
I do most of my grocery shopping in the Asian grocery store since they supply foods that Filipinos love so much
😃😃
I had a fun with you shopping. Oh! yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
😃😃
Mark. Going to shopping is good but at 10:00 p.m. don't you sleep?. By the way, how do I get at the grocery store if you don't have a car? I ask this question because I didn't see any bus on the highway.
It's very hard to live in Canada without a car. There are buses, but shopping for food would be too inconvenient by bus. You should live within walking distance to a grocery store if you don't have a car.
How about Walmart supercentre?
Yes, you can buy food there too! 😃
how did you use your cellphone to pay the money?
I want English subtitle.
Well, I still think you're a admirable guy bro, however in all countries the go to shopping is almost the same, one of those issues you got in Canada, is the sun (talking about D vitamin), another thing is not so comfortable is the distance from home to the "SuperMarket" or Grocery Store, well I saw all is far away from home in there, CostCo is around the world, at least in Mexico we have a lot, in every important city have at least 1, many months ago I saw a couple of guys from Texas comparing prices of CostCo in Mexico and CostCo TX, the results was Mexico have cheapest prices in almost all.

Thanks for your comment! I hope I can be a gringo living in Mexico one day! Maybe I can save up and buy a house there. 😁

If have some question just ask dude.
Have a nice night and peace out!
Thanks so much! 😃After I save up some money, you can help me buy a house there! 😃
Isn't requiered to wear gloves to touch fruits in Canada?
My favorite food is ice cream.
Dobrou chuť !
You said its about 10 pm (timings) than how come its bright outside at night while you were driving ?? When does the sky become dark at night in Canada ??
In the summer, it gets dark at 11pm. In the winter, at 4pm.
Canada is a northern country ... the Sun behaves very differently than near the equator.
Here's a good explanation: ua-cam.com/video/tFCSwWBAeE0/v-deo.html
tomato ice cream or letuce ice cream can be health
😂😂
Love the video.
😃😃
Thank you 💛
Thanks for taking us shopping teacher...you forgot to buy some snacks!,btw what do u call that department..the snack one?
You're right! Next time I'll buy you some snacks! 😃😃It's called "the junk food aisle".
Mad English TV Haha, that is a lovely name for a department! It is like saying "Be aware of what you are gonna buy here." 😀
You are interesting as always
I have to buy a lot of something in Costco.
the store is too far from your house. If forget to buy something...
is it usually in Canada?
Usually stores are closer! But often it is a 10-15 minute drive to a big store. It depends on the location.
Mad English TV
thank you for answering.
give my regards to that rabbit :)
There are also "corner stores" pretty much everywhere where you can buy basic necessities like bread and milk.
Bigger grocery stores are a little more dispersed.
thank u
Love many card there! Hope someone sent a card for me, hehe.
Is there a traditional market near your house, Mark? I want to know about it.
😃Unfortunately, there are no markets near my house.
Hi Mark, can you tell me the camera you use to shoot the video?
Hi, it's this one. amzn.to/2t9Pfjd
I like ice cream but not eat too much :)
Hello i'm not welle to spiking ingliche but i learn about this vidéos ,i would like spaek Well ,un the Futur ,
please make a video about pharmacist job there please please
To be honest, I don't know anything about pharmacist jobs!
You need to appear for a license exam for being a pharmacist in Canada.It is a regulated occupation.
you are the best
Safe drive! :)
😃😃
Is it really 10 pm? I see the sky is not dark yet.
Yes!
