Online Class Notes (Vicki)

I don’t think young people feel the same about shopping at markets as older people since shopping online is becoming getting more normal in this “ internet generation “. Shopping online can satisfy most of our needs, therefore, many people like it instead of shopping offline. Although young people still go to markets, their targets are different from older people’s.
Generally speaking, older people shopping at markets are going for things they definitely need, such as commodities and vegetables. As we know, when it comes to vegetables, the fresher the better  which are fresher are better, so older people would go to the markets each single day.
But for young people, they may go to markets to experience or they just need somewhere to hangout after staying at home for a whole day. They also would buy things, but it’s really not necessary like basketball. Shopping online is more convenient for them.
