Hi Erin,

How are you? Are you going to Jack’s party tomorrow? I’m going shopping this afternoon because I          got him a present and I need to get one. Have you bought him anything     ? I think I will get him the DVD of that film he was talking about in class the other day. Or       he already got it? I could get him a T-shirt. I saw some cool ones in the market by the river the other day. Have you ever       there?

Oh, I must go. My mum has just called me for lunch.

Can you phone me later?

Speak soon.

Sophie

Hi Tony,

I’d love to come shopping, but I haven’t done my homework         [already, just, yet] , so I can’t. Also, I’ve        [done, spent, bought] nearly all my money this month. Have you       [ever, never, yet] bought anything from a website? It’s usually         [worse, cheaper, quicker] , but I buy too much so it isn’t really! I want to buy some boots. There’s a new           [shoe shop, bank, bookshop] in town and I saw some there that I like. 
I needed a new            [shorts, leggings, sweatshirt] for PE too, but my mum has 
       [buy, buying, bought] that for me. And I want to get a        [tights, top, skirt] to go      [with, to, in] those jeans I bought. And maybe some           [dress, jewellery, belt], too! I love shopping!
