-|Abstract=This chapter investigates how persons shopping together initiate orientation towards commercial objects that populate self-service stores. Drawing on the methods developed in conversation analysis, it discusses the actions that shoppers accomplish when introducing a ‘new’ object into their interaction. In the supermarket setting, objects are available resources: as customers navigate through the aisles of the store, they use (commercial) objects as landmarks, as resources allowing them to organise their overall shopping activity, to initiate buying decisions, to engage in topic talk, etc. This study furthermore discusses the multimodal resources that shoppers employ when establishing a joint focus of attention and analyses the categorisation work that they accomplish when orienting towards objects that are on sale.
