A Smart and Careful Shopper
Li Xiang is a smart shopper. He often shops in the supermarket. Things there are not expensive, and he can make different choices. He always makes a shopping list and only buys things on the list. This can help him save time and money as well. He also likes to look for sales, so he can buy things at good prices.
Li Xiang is very careful when he is doing shopping. He always checks the price and date before he makes a choice. And when he is making payments, he checks everything again. He is also very careful not to waste money. For example, if he can share something with his friends, he never wastes money on the same thing.
My prediction is right wrong.
