Solution
The correct option is C I'm going to buy
Sometimes, speakers use the present continuous tense to indicate that something will or will not happen in the near future, here, the action of shopping is going to happen. The present continuous is formed using am/is/are + present participle (root verb+ing). Hence, Option C is correct.The rest of the options either indicate that the action has already happened (Options A and B) or that the action is hypothetical/unreal (Option D), hence they're incorrect.
