Help! All signs in Turkce

The signs here are all in Turkish and makes shopping difficult! Lucky for me one word jumped out and stuck in my mind - INDIRIM! (SALE) and another BUYUK INDIRIM!(BIG SALE) I would say that would be about the most important word/phrase any serious shopper would want to enlist double quick in their vocabulary...


and what about grrocery shopping...hahhahaha another headache cos you need to figure out what the heck it is . Some are dead giveaways - PANTALONS must mean pants, right and get this TISORT - must only mean T-shirt! Hey...I'm geetting good at this! (lets' leave FIYAT GORMEDI for another day....)



If the packaging is the same as in M'sia tak pe jugak... or if it something you can figure out through the pictures on the packaging, 

...so you don't need to be a genius to work out that these are kids fruit juices: the one on the left is Orange, the next is apple and so on. But other times - there's not a clue...so you tell yourself there's always next time and that may be your Turkish will be better by then....or NOT!
