Let's go Shopping!

We begin by parking our motorcycles!  There are almost as many parked in the lot as there are cars!

 Next we go through security.  Notice male and female have their own lines. 
 They are careful to check bags and purses.
 There is a beautiful selection of seafood.  Other things are available at certain places, sometimes!  We go to one store for milk, one Mall for Cool Whip, and another for pudding!
 John, just had to send some sushi for you!
 The sales assistants are so helpful.  There is usually one person assigned to each row in a store.
These young people are not usually high school or college students.
Many have design or marketing degrees.  It is crazy.
 They have a specific uniform for the area they work in!
 Right down to the shoes!!!
 Another department!  They were helpful with finding my" hair care"!  These wonderful young men and women are very respectful.  They always greet us with "Hello Mum-Sir" for Sister, and "Hello Sir, po" for Elder.  There is no female or male distinction in their language so they just say both.  
"Po" is said to show honor.  They are so polite and friendly!
When you are tired after shopping, be sure to head for the Senior Citizen line, 
complete with a bench for resting!!!
Notice the cute checkers and baggers are also dressed in uniforms, with their hair all done up in buns.
They also use their checkers to help with advertisement - hence the head gear!

This was one of my favorite pictures.  There were five assistants helping Elder DuPaix 
make his purchase.  Sometimes I think they are so excited to be able to help. 
We went to buy a light bulb and nine assistants came to our aid!
We are finally done so some relaxation and message therapy is in order!  p10 isn't too bad a price for a great three minute workout!
