Shopping

There is a store that is popular here like walmart.  It is called E Mart.  I went shopping for the first time there.  If you have been to aldi then this won't shock you, but the carts require a coin to unhook from the cart line.  Then you can go shopping.  There are elevators between the floors.  They aren't steps like we are used to, but a pathway.  The carts hook onto them automatically so you don't have to use your hands :)  Also the carts can be spun in any direction you want, the wheels don't limit you like they do in the states.  The Koreans are ingenious.  Also, random stuff in the store has something free taped onto it.  It is easy to get free stuff.  Then all the dozens of free sample people wear masks so that nothing gets into the free samples :D

    Sounds like shopping is a fun trip!

    What did you take back to the apt where you live that was a free sample, Teacher Mindy?

    Are you going to wear a mask sometime and rip it off in front of someone and yell, "BOO!"? Haha! ;0
