Why do you want to join these tables? In other words, how is the data related?

If you just want a list of ALL records from both tables as if they were one (in other words, all of one, piled on top of all of the other), you can just do a simple UNION join:

SELECT * FROM shopper UNION SELECT * FROM recipient;

This will work if each table has columns of the same name and type, otherwise you will need to include column naming, and possibly casting options in your query.
