Todd: Hey, Rebecca, I heard there's a new shopping center. Have you gone to the shopping center yet?

Rebecca: Yeah, we went for the grand opening on Thursday. It was really, really crowded.

Todd: I bet.

Rebecca: Yeah. Lots of people around. Lots of sales. Lots of shops there.

Todd: So, what do you think? Is it a nice shopping center?

Rebecca: Yeah, it is quite nice. They have a juice bar there which is really, really good. We need fresh fruit, so that was really good. I tried an apple and pineapple juice and it was delicious.

Todd: So, actually, at this juice bar, they actually make the juice fresh right there?

Rebecca: Yeah, they do. Right in front of you. They use a big industrial juice mixer.

Todd: Right. So there's no sugar or anything like that in the juice?

Rebecca: From what I can see, no. Only natural sugar from the fruits.

Todd: Well, that's good. That's good. Well, as for the shopping center, what did you think? Is it a nice place?

Rebecca: Yeah, it is nice. A lot of shops. The majority of shops were clothing shops, though so if you're interested in buying new clothes, then definitely go.

Todd: Well, I am but, you know, usually shopping centers are mainly for women. Did they have lots of men's clothes?

Rebecca: I didn't really notice that much. I was just shopping for myself, so there were a lot of women's clothing so, maybe small sections might have been men.

Todd: Oh, right. Well, what about the prices? Was it pretty cheap?

Rebecca: It was because it was on sale because of the new opening. Hopefully after it opens up, it should be OK still.

Todd: Well, did you buy anything?

Rebecca: Yes, I bought... What did I buy? Two t-shirts, which were on special so that was a bargain.

Todd: Yeah, well, I definitely need some shirts myself so I think I'm going to head down there this weekend.

Rebecca: Yeah, you should go. Definitely.
