Hi,
You say 'I'd like a bag of rice, please'.
You give your money to the person in the store.
This means you have bought the rice.
On the other hand, if you are 'entitled to buy a bag of rice', it just means 'you have the right to buy it'. Maybe you actually go ahead and buy it, maybe you don't.
Stores allow anyone to buy rice. That mean
