Here some sample results you can get by setting those ad extensions:
Location Extensions
Location extensions: Help nearby consumers find or call your nearest shopfront. By filling in address information about your shop, the SERP can show a pin location on a map with the address of your business.
Sitelinks
Ad Sitelinks: Promote more pages within your site beyond your main ad landing page. This enables you to configure more then one URL. Look at below example having links to "order online now", "Store Locater", etc...
Call Extensions
Call extensions: Connect users to your business directly by phone. The search result on a telephony enabled device such as a smartphone shows an add where selecting the phone number will activate the "make phonecall" function
Social extensions
Social extensions: Link people's Google+ endorsements for your business +Page to your AdWords campaign. Remark the "+1" (equivalent to a Facebook "like") next to the ad title.
Social extensions look the same as standard ads with +1 annotations on both the Google Search and Display Networks.
