Hi Wendy!
Greetings from New York. It's great here. I've be< shopping all day and I'm really tired, but at least I ha finished buying presents now. It's so difficult to fir something for everyone!
The easiest person to buy for was my little brother, Tirr bought him a silver robot. He'll love it! It walks, talks ar does tricks! I had more trouble finding something for dad, though. He seems to have everything already! In end, I bought him a brown leather wallet. His old one falling apart. My mum likes everything I buy for her, so I her a lovely silver picture frame. I've also found sc striped cushions for my grandma. I hope she will like then
I've bought a present for you, too. I won't say what is though, as that would ruin the surprise. See you in a few weeks, Angela

Thousands of years ago, the money was not used. Instead, man had the “barter” system. This meant that if one wanted something he had, he had to find someone who had this thing. Then he had to offer him something in exchange. And if that person didn't like what he was offered, the first man couldn't get what he needed.
Over time, certain things were used as money, because virtually everyone would take these things in exchange. In the past people used shells, beads, beans, cocoa, salt, grain, tobacco, leather, and even cattle. But coins are much easier to use than, say, cattle. Them easy to store and carry.
They were first made from either gold or silver. They were imprinted with the brand name. Printing was showing how much each coin was worth.
Later, people began to use coins made of cheaper metals. Metal just had no value, but the coins still had value on the basis of printing, imprinted on them. People have also started to use paper money. No longer mattered that the money itself had no real value. This is the kind of money we use today.
Money has many forms. For example, this can be coins, bills or electronic money.
Coins is the money of small denomination. Previously, they were made of valuable metals, because the coin itself was valuable. Now they are made from cheap materials.
Due to the fact that a large number of coins was not convenient to carry, came up with paper money. They are made with special characters, so you can't fake them. First, a currency of mistrust, but then people got used to it and started to use.
Today electronic money has become one of the main ways of payment for goods and services. Electronic money is very convenient to pay for purchases in online stores. The first electronic money began to produce in 1994 in the United States. They have gained popularity and within a year took their payment system. Electronic money has become much more convenient. And the card was smaller than bill.
In the big shopping malls are not only shopping but also food courts where you can buy any food and drink what you want. Also, there are a variety of entertainment movie small parks. And for the convenience of visitors, many shopping centers are open until late at night in these centers have recreational areas with benches, decorations, special conditions for disabled elderly as well as in some stores for the convenience of the teller.
