Shopping & returns
Compare, ask for sizes, negotiate, return faulty items.
1Learn the essentials
Shopping conversations cover comparing, trying, paying and returning — mostly short, polite exchanges.
- “I'm just looking, thanks” politely ends the offer to help.
- Ask about fit: “Do you have this in a medium?”
- Returns: “I'd like to return this — here's the receipt.”
2Warm up & speak

3Lock it in
¿Me lo puedo probar?
Say it in English, then check yourself.
