Crazy habit--Wendi Fan

In the article "Shopping for Clothes" Curtis and Spencer talk about their fashion style and the clothes they like to buy and wear. There are three main points they mentioned in the dialogue. The first and foremost is that whether spend much money on clothes or not. Both of them don't take a lot to buy clothes, because they have enough clothes to wear and most of them won't be wear out easily. Sometimes they will buy something they really like to recycle the current clothes. The second one is about the clothes style they like. Spencer has so many shoes to wear in different case, while Curtis has endless T shirts. Therefore they can show others a different style every day. The last thing is about shopping habit. Spencer likes to buy many different colors but the same things.

The topic reminds me of a crazy phenomenon in China. When I worked in China, almost all of female around me had the habit of shopping online. From toothpaste to kitchen pot, from coat to underwear and also including furniture, we can buy everything from internet. Kinds of promote activities make us to surf net shops every day, especially on Chinese traditional festivals. To save only¥5 when purchasing one more thing make us lost much. When we check the spending list at the end of the year, we found that we had losing so much money on clothes. The amount surprised us a lot, because we even cannot imagine how much money we deed earned one year! Then the fact that almost everyone did so relaxes us entirely, since main online shopping websites such as taobao, Jingdong Mall and Chinese amazon were full of net citizen. Some products you should buy it in limited time, even in 30 seconds, you should finish all the purchase processes within the time. Actually we will send admire expression to the successful girl, because it is really hard to get what everyone wants to in a national wide. This really likes an exciting race. Intermittent network, slow express delivery and the huge transaction amount make me realize that online shopping has become a crazy habit for Chinese. What a stupid habit it is! Now I think about it, this action just likes internet games, we spend a lot, otherwise usually get something useless. Limited time and cheaper goods make us to fail to think it over. Maybe it is the function of advertisement, or the business designers have grasped female consumers' psychology.
