The main shopping street in many towns is called the High Street, where you should head for if you want to go shopping.
A few small shops are owned by local people. Most are owned by national 'chains' of stores. This makes many town centres look the same.
Some towns also have street markets where fresh food and cheap goods can be bought
. Away from the town centre, small 'corner' shops provide groceries to local customers.

Over the Christmas and New Year period, all shops are closed on Christmas Day (December 25) and a some shops are closed on New Year's Day (January 1). However, an increasing number of shops are now opening on Boxing Day (December 26), which is when many start their 'New Year' sales.
It is likely that most shopping centres will be closed on Easter Sunday and there will be reduced shopping hours on Easter Monday (often from either 10 or 11 o'clock in the morning).

Some rural shops still follow the tradition of an early closing day (usually Wednesday) when the shops close at 1.00pm.

Banking Hours
The major high street banks in England and Wales are Lloyds, Barclays, Midland and National Westminster (Nat West). In Scotland they are the Bank of Scotland, the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Clydesdale Bank.
Generally Monday-Friday 9:30 am-3:30 pm. Some branches stay open until 5:30 pm, and a few are open Saturday morning.
Most banks will have an ATM (Automated Teller Machine) outside the bank where you can draw out money with a credit or cash card. Many of these are available to use 24 hours a day, but some do still close for a few hours during the night.
