The way of shopping has changed a lot these years. When I went shopping five years ago, my mother reminded me of taking my money. I used paper money to buy everything. But now I am used to shopping online without leaving my home.
With the development of shopping online. Buying in group becomes a trend nowadays. I think it’s a good idea to buy things in group. First, the price is much lower than that in shops. Second, it is more convenient. For example, you just need to click and wait if you want to order the expo ticket. You don’t need go toShanghai. In addition, people can have a quick look at different products easily through the Internet.
But there are also some problems in group buying. So we must care more about the safety when we buy things in group.
