    For those online shopping (网购) lovers, now it is the best time of the year, because Nov. 11, China's Singles' Day (光棍节), will see many as big as 50%discounts(打折) 一even bigger than that. Last year, Taobao, a major online shopping website, set a record of 268.4 billion yuan in sales on that day alone. Are you willing to do the most wonderful shopping online? Read through the following tips.

    Be prepared. Choose things early and reasonably. Put everything you want in the "shopping cart". Then go through it carefully, make sure the things you have listed are really what you want.

    Order the things earlier. Talk to shop assistants as early as possible. They may have already decided on a discount rule for Nov. 11 and may even send you the things you have ordered earlier than Nov. 11, which is a good way to avoid the heavy online traffic on the special day.

    Look at the real things from the shops or somewhere else. To buy many things, such as shoes and clothes, it's better to look at them first to check their qualities and sizes.

    It's all about timing. There are several rush hours when online traffic is heavy and there is a higher risk of failed shopping. Try to avoid the following time：10—11 a. m., 12 p. m.一1：30a. m., 3—5 p. m., and 8—10p. m.

    Use a helping hand. A software (软件) like Huihui Shopping lists the best offers on a special website, while Yitao, developed by Alibaba, compares prices of chosen things across different websites. These helping hands can bring you the best decision.

    Open your package and check it. When the package arrives, check it carefully before signing your name.

    Now you can go and enjoy all your new trips of shopping!
