A fewdays before it, he checks carefully what he needs and whether he really needs them, andmakes a shopping list. He goes to the online shops to compare the quality and the pricesof the things that he is going to buy. He compares the shops that sell these things.Then he checks whether he can afford them and in which shops he is going to buythem. Although it takes him some time to make the decisions, he would not regret afterthe shopping. Then what would happen if he didn't think critically before he made thedecisions? After the crazy “Double 11”, there were usually a lot of complaints on theInternet. There were regrets about buying more things than they needed. There werecomplaints about the poor quality and the prices of the things they bought. There werealso complaints because they received wrong things or simply received nothing.
