Buying Something

People in the world buy something, at least on thing every day, for food, fashion, and health. But , the way of buying are different between U.S. and Korea. There are lots of marts and lots of people buying many things. They have different way of buying.  First, we must pay tax with products. For example, if you buy a cup of coffee, chips, and food, you must pay tax in the U.S. But, in Korea, you can pay just the price of products. Also, they do not give a tip. Second, U.S. people buy fruit and groceries in the store. Korea also has many grocery shops. But, many koreans buy fruit and groceries from the trucks. In other words, seller put fruit and groceries in his truck , and they go everywhere and to places where the store is not located. So, people can buy easily. Finally, Koreans eat something that they want to buy before buying. Most shops and marts have free food for trying. So, if you want to buy some food, you can try eating it. If you do not want to buy it, you do not have to buy it. It is up to you. But I have never seen free food for trying in the U.S. In conclusion, even if each country has different way of buying, we can buy everything easily in everywhere
