I was going to the store this evening to buy boxes of cake mix. I was planning to make a cake for my birthday. I invited everyone from town and was planning to attend the party, which is supposed to be tonight. When I got to the store, I saw my sister working there. I told her I needed some boxes of cake mix, and she pointed me to the correct aisle. You're not going to believe this! There was an empty shelf. I wonder who's buying all of the cake mix. It's not going to be a good birthday without a cake.
The word "to" is added before "the store" to indicate the arrival at the destination. "My" is included before "sister" for clarification, and "there" is added after "working" to provide a location.
Original:
"I told her I needed boxes of cake mix, and she pointed me the correct aisle."
Corrected:
"I told her I needed some boxes of cake mix, and she pointed me to the correct aisle."
The word "some" is added before "boxes" for specificity. "To" is added after "pointed me" to correctly connect it to the destination, which is the correct aisle.
