Julia: I love this department store.
Sammy: Me, too. Oh!
Julia: What's wrong?
Sammy: I haven't got any money.
Julia: There's a cashpoint just down the road. There! Next to the traffic lights.
Sammy: Oh, yes. I'll see you in five minutes?
Sammy: Hi, Julia? I'm here.
Julia: Oh, that was quick.
Sammy: Where are you?
Julia: Take the lift. And when you come out, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.
Sammy: Great.
Sammy: Take the lift, come out, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.
Sammy: '… come out of the lift, go straight on, then left a bit and you'll see me.' But where? There's nobody here. ... Julia, hi.
Julia: Are you coming?
Sammy: Am I coming? Julia, I'm here. Where are you?
Julia: You're here? Sammy, I'm here. And I don't know where you are, but you're definitely not here.
Sammy: No, no, you're right. I'm not here. Look, I can see shoes. Are you near shoes?
Julia: Yes, I am.
Sammy: Really?!?
Julia: Yes. Can you see the trousers? Jeans, shorts ...
Sammy: Yes.
Julia: I'm near the trousers, looking at the dresses.
Sammy: Dresses?! Julia, there aren't any dresses.
Julia: Yes, there are, Sammy. And I'm looking at them now ...
Sammy: No, there aren't! Not on this floor ...
Julia: 'Not on this floor'? Sammy, which floor are you on?
Sammy: Basement. Men's clothes.
Julia: Women's clothes, Sammy. First floor.
Sammy: Julia, you said, 'take the lift'.
Julia: Look, I'll see you in two minutes.
Sammy: OK.
Sammy: Julia!
Julia: Sammy!

No necessarily, I just ask where is the person that I can't find and then I go to the place wherethe person is at the moment that I know.
Very useful episode.
Normanly,when I find someone in public place,I usually call a phone and ask them where they are.Then ask security or others the way to go there.
what the difference between those sentences, and why
I haven't got any money
I haven't any money
Hello Anwar68,
The first sentence is correct and the second is not.
There are two ways to construct a negative with have for possession:
When have is the main verb we need to use an auxiliary don't to make the negative.
The meaning of the sentences is the same, but haven't got is a little more informal and is more common in speech than writing.

Both have got and have are the same meaning. Have got is used commonly in North America.

do you have twitter?
When I and my wife go to the department store we have the same problem because she goes the wear store and I go to the tools store. Finally, when we want to come back to home we find hardly each other.
Have you ever had a hard time finding someone in a public place? How did you find them?
First i agree with the person i am going to leave, but on one occasion my friend got lost but i identified him with the color shirt blue. This was terrible. I searched for it all over the place.
