Q: Every week I go to the store to stock up on groceries for my family. First, I make a plan for the meals I want to make during the week. Then, I look through the cupboards and refrigerator and freezer to see what I already have. If I need something to make a meal and I don't have it already on hand, I put it on my list. After I do this, I then check my pantry for staples. I like to always have certain things on hand like ketchup or vegetable oil. I also check to make sure we don't need any paper products like toilet paper or paper towel. If I find anything that we need, it goes on the list. Once my list is complete, I get in the car and drive to the store. I make sure to mark off each item as I put it in the cart so I don't miss anything.
Question: Why were they going shop?
A:
They needed things from the grocery store.
