Hi

She asked me to go so I went.

The shops were closed so I couldn't buy anything.

Do I need a comma in each of the above sentences? If not, when is a comma used when 'so' is used?

Thanks very much.

Yes, both sentences need commas because each clause has a subject and verb. The "so" isn't really an issue.
