How to stop shopping

I love clothes. I know how to shop and I know when to

stop. I can’t spend too much money, or my bank could

cancel my debit card! However, you can fnd the best

bargains without spending all your money. Here’s how…

Firstly, you don’t need to shop when you can swap!

Organise a swapping party with your riends. Tell them

they must bring the clothes they don’t wear anymore.

Then you exchange your old clothes with other people. It’s

much cheaper than shopping. You don’t need to spend a

cent! What’s more i you visit bigwardrobe.com, you’ll also be able to swap your clothes online.

Secondly, you won’t need to buy so many clothes, i you learn to make your own. I remember my

mum making clothes which I thought weren’t ashionable enough. But knitting is a lot cooler than itwas beore. New clothes can also be too expensive; we don’t always have the money. So why not knit

yoursel a jumper, hat, or scar? I you look on youtube.com, you’ll fnd lots o videos which show you

how to knit. You can be the most original person at school.

Finally, i you shop at a charity shop, you’ll help other people. A charity shop is a shop that sells second-

hand things which people donate. The shop gives all the money it makes to charity. A charity is an

organisation which helps others. The people who work in these shops are usually volunteers. You can

buy clothes at cheap prices. There are also online charity shops like oxam.org.uk that have a selection

o second-hand things or sale.

The worst driver in the world? Read the following story and decide which of the words and

expressions in bold correspond to the dictionary definitions 1 - 14.

My brother Ted must be the world's worst driver. It started when he was young and used to go for

joyrides, causing pile-ups which resulted in traffic jams and gridlocks for other drivers. As a young

adult, he was a real boy racer, putting his foot down, driving like the clappers and then jamming

on the brakes. I reckon he must have written off at least six of the bangers he used to drive. He's

still a real road hog, tailgating other cars and getting involved in road rage incidents. He's offered

to give me a lift home tonight, but to be honest, I'd rather thumb a lift. He's picking me up in a

few minutes; maybe I'd better have one for the road. At least it's rush hour and the roads will be

chock-a-block so he won't be able to drive too fast! Honestly - sometimes he drives me round the

bend!
