November 11th shopping day

The first thing about November 11th is Alibaba. Ma Yun is the first man to set the shopping day on November 11th. Before this, November 11 is the day of the single people. I think the interesting thing is Ma Yun added something to this day, and you can do something good to yourself, and to be single is not a bad thing. Because of this, everybody likes that. It do many things to advertise the shopping day. It tells everybody you can shopping on this day by a big discount. So I usually do many work about this and to collect things I may used in the future, and add it to the shopping cart, and waiting for the time coming, if it really has a large discount, I will buy it.

I think it’s not really big discount these two years, because the prices may rise before the shopping day comes, so I usually just buy something I had concerned/ pay attentioned for a long time. So i knew the price before the shopping day. I usually buy some daily contacts. I buy it every year.

Revised:

The first thing you/we should know about November 11th is Alibaba. Ma Yun, the founder of Alibaba, was the first man to introduce the shopping day on November 11th. Before this, November 11 was the celebration day for the single people. I think the interesting thing is Ma Yun brought a more interesting aspect/ perspective something to this day, and you can do something good to yourself, and know that being single is not a bad thing. Because of this, everybody likes this day. Alibaba usually does many advertisements for the shopping day. It notifies everybody to shop on this day with a big discount. So I usually do many research about what I may used in the future, and add them to the shopping cart. Then I wait for the big time, if it really has a big discount, I will buy it.

I think it’s the discounts weren’t as attracting for the past two years, because the prices may rise before the shopping day comes, so I usually just buy something I had in mind for a long time. So i knew the price before the shopping day. I usually buy some daily contacts. I buy it every year.
