Band 7 Example
Question: Do you often buy more than you expected?
Idea 1
Yes
Model Answer
Yes, I do end up buying more than I planned sometimes. Shops are really good at making things look attractive, especially when there are discounts or sales. When I'm shopping online, it's even easier to just add things to my cart without thinking too much. Sometimes I see something I didn't plan to buy, but I really like it, so I just get it. I think everyone does this from time to time.
Idea 2
No
Model Answer
No, I don't usually buy more than I expect. I always make a shopping list before I go out and try to stick to it. I also try to control my spending and avoid buying things I don't really need. Budgeting helps me focus on what I actually need to buy, and I don't like having too much stuff at home.
