Would you correct my English?

Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Will you check them?

No. 1

M: I'm going to the supermarket to buy (some) vegetables for dinner.

F: We also need some candles for the cake and blocks of ice for the

cooler.

M: Thank you for reminding me. I'll get them.

No. 2 At the supermarket

M: Excuse me, ma'am. Where do you have eggs?

F: They are across from the fresh fruit corner. You'll find them (it?) easily.

If you want, shall I show you to the place?

M: No, I think I can find it myself.

Thank you!

F: We also need some candles for the cake and blocks of ice for the

cooler. Although your version is correct, typically you would not say "blocks of ice" just "ice."
M: Thank you
