Shopping at the Supermarket 

Stocker: Can I help you find something? 

Meg: Yes, I’m looking for coffee. 

Stocker: That’s on aisle 3. Let me show you where it is. 

Meg: Thanks. Hmm, I don’t see the Jitters brand that I normally buy. 

Stocker: It looks like we’re out of stock. We should get another shipment next week. 

Meg: Okay, I’ll check back. I’m also looking for the Fructose brand soda, but I didn’t see it in the soda aisle. 

Stocker: I’m afraid that’s been discontinued. Their parent company no longer makes soda. 

Meg: Really? I love Fructose soda. How about the Mushy brand bread? I didn’t see it when I checked the bread aisle. 

Stocker: We no longer stock the Mushy brand. There were some quality control issues at the company, so we’ve pulled all of their products from the shelves. Can I help you find anything else? 

Meg: No, I guess I’ll just have to try some new brands. Oh, yes, do you carry Worm organic apples? 

Stocker: We normally do, but they’re out of season right now. We won’t have any until early summer. 

Meg: All of this shopping and I have nothing to show for it. I guess I’m going home empty-handed. 

Stocker: We do have chocolate cakes and cookies on sale. 

Meg: I’m there!
