    Last time I went shopping was yesterday.  I work every day from Monday till Friday, so I shop for something to eat at weekends.  I was shopping with my son.  We were shopping for some food.  I like healthy food.  I bought different cheeses, hard and soft, curd, eggs, fish and seafood, turkey, some sweets, coffee beans etc. I tried the perfumes, but I didn't like anything.

    I wasn't quite sure what you meant with "These are different cheese..."  It could be I bought..., or perhaps, there were...  meaning you looked at them without necessarily buying. ))

    Yesterday was the last time I went to a shop, and I was with my son. As I work every day from Monday till Friday, I have to do my shopping for something to eat at weekends.  We wanted to buy some food. I especially like healthy food. These are different cheeses, both hard and soft, curd, eggs, fish and seafood, turkey, some sweets, coffee beans, etc. I tried some of the perfumes, but I did not like any of them.

    Hello Ann. This is very good, but I removed some of your "shopping" = you wrote it so many times!

    I have changes some of your sentences to give you an idea of different ways of writing.

    We were shopping for some food.

    There are different cheeses.....

    I tried the perfumes but did not like any (of them).
