Before holidays like Double 11 and Black Friday, sellers usually send a lot of messages about promotions to everyone who likes shopping online. The purpose of that is to improve sales. Some people think that these holidays are a unique opportunity to buy the things they want, at a better price. On the other hand, some people don’t like them, because they get lots of spam on their cellphones almost everyday. To avoid being disturbed, they download a specific app that prevents that.
