has coronavirus changed the way you spend money? Has your spending increased or decreased? Why?

It changed the way I spend money. I spending money decreased because first of all, I always stay at home so I have no time to go shopping in shopping malls. I didn’t eat food outside. I always buy something online recently. In these 3 months, at first three months, I almost didn’t spend money, because I didn’t buy something online. I didn’t want somebody to ship the product from different areas, I think it’s very dangerous. I buy something online, like vegetables, meat and rice, so I cook at home. Sometimes, I buy something because I just want to spend money. Nowadays, I often forget to buy something. I began to like this style of life.
