ⓢ : Hi, can I help you?
ⓙ : No, we are just looking.
ⓢ : OK. In case you need help, my name is Cindy.
▶ We are just looking. = We are just browsing around.

e.g.
In case I'm late, don't wait to leave. "제가 늦으면 먼저 떠나세요."
In case it should reain, take un umbrella. "비가 올 경우를 대비해서 우산을 가져가라."
- 또 다른 샤핑몰에서 -
ⓢ : 안녕하세요. 찾으시는 거 있어요?
ⓙ : 아니오. 그냥 구경만 하는 거예요.
ⓢ : 네, 도움이 필요하시면 Cindy를 찾으세요.
- a few minutes later -
ⓙ : How much is this watch, Cindy?
ⓢ : Two grand.
ⓙ : Too steep. Can you come down a little?
ⓢ : Sorry, but we don't discount.
ⓙ : All right, I'll take it. Can you giftwrap it, please?
ⓢ : Sure.
▶ 1 grand = 1,000 dollars
▶ steep (가격 따위가) 터무니없는 = exorbitant = too expensive
▶ giftwrap (vt) 선물용으로 포장하다

ⓙ : 이 시계 얼마죠, 신디?
ⓢ : 2천 달러요.
ⓙ : 너무 비싸군요. 좀 깎아주시겠어요?
ⓢ : 죄송합니다만, 할인을 하지 않습니다.
ⓙ : 알겠어요. 가져갈게요. 선물용으로 포장해주시겠어요?
ⓢ : 그러죠.
