Additional information
Hi! Ari here (that's me on camera). I wanted to mention that my accent is Peruvian but I'm using what one would call "generalized Spanish" just for these examples (even though there's no really such thing) to make it simpler and more familiar for you! Why do I mention this? For example, in Perú we don't say "supermercado", maybe you have heard some countries shorten it and say "super" but we don't use that either. We say the specific name of the supermarket/mall we'll be shopping in, or if you want to say you'll be going to any store/supermarket in general, we use "tienda". For example: Voy a ir a la tienda a comprar tomates (I'm going to the store to buy tomatoes). Or if you don't even want to mention the place, we just say "Voy a ir a comprar" (literally "I'm going to buy") and you can follow it with more information if you wish, but on itself it works as well. I know every Spanish is different even within the same country, so I wanted to clarify in case you had any doubts!
