Every Tuesday, I'd like to give a tip on living in France to make your life in France and Paris more comfortable...
5 tips on how to get help in a store
let's say that the person working at the store is a 'she' (to simplify the text below)
1. To start off, smile when you get to the store and say 'hello' / 'Bonjour'.
2. Allow the salesgirl to finish her conversation with her fellow collegue.
3. Once she's finished, ask her if you can 'bother' her for a second or two.
4. If what you want isn't in stock, DO NOT ask her if she can call another store to see if they have it; ask her if she would mind telling you if she knows of another store that might carry it.
5. AND, if you want to be helped next time, thank her for her time, tell her to have a nice day, and you're off!
Happy Shopping! By the way, France has loads of GREAT stores and brands, so even if getting help can be a bit frustrating at times, you won't be let down by all that great stuff you can find!
