Yesterday, the reporter learned that some people spent tens of thousands during the epidemic, which is twice as usual. There are also many people who invest in stocks as micro-quotients, and try their best to fill the gaps while spending money. How much did you pay for the bill during your home? Spend less or more?

Bill: Nearly 30% spent more money

Recently, in the "Consumption Expenditure Change during the Epidemic" survey issued by the Economic Observer Network, more than half of the respondents said that they saved money, but also 29% said they spent more money and 20% Flat.

10697.73 yuan, this is Liu Xinran's Alipay bill in February. "When I saw the bill, I was a bit afraid to look down. I thought the house could save money. I didn't expect to spend twice as much as in January, almost the same as last year's double eleven." Liu Xinran, 27, is a beauty Makeup artist, with a monthly income of more than 7,000, except for water and electricity rents, the previous monthly expenditure of 4,000 was even more. She smiled and said that she didn't want anything after the epidemic, she went to work obediently and made money to pay off the debt.

Among Liu Xinran's bills, the highest consumption was on February 14. It ’s more than 2,600 yuan. “On Taobao that day, I saw a discount on cosmetics. I bought 50 masks, 2 boxes of foundation, 2 bottles of essence lotion in one go, and bought an oven and some snacks.” She thinks these are the usual items. Yes, when you encounter a discount promotion, you earn it when you buy it.

Compared with Liu Xinran, the 30-year-old Huang Yiming is much more rational. In February, the Alipay bill showed "4593.2 yuan", of which 2,200 yuan was the mortgage, plus his WeChat bill, it cost more than 2,700. "During the epidemic, I cook at home. I spend the most on some daily expenses, such as rice, oil and salt."

Ten, I can't get out of the supermarket when I go to the supermarket.

The epidemic does not go to work and has no money to make. It may be a good choice to return to your hometown to find parents to eat rice. 23-year-old Yang Yan graduated last year with a monthly income of 4,000 yuan as an accountant. "The boss said a long time ago that only the basic salary will be paid in February. There is no way, I can only go back to my hometown to ask my parents for help."

In addition, mortgages, rents, utilities, and insurance also account for a portion, and some people need to recharge their homes to pursue dramas and play games.

"I can make rice, but I can't make milk tea. If I want to drink, I have to order takeaway, and the freight is not cheap," said 25-year-old Hu Xingyue. In February, milk tea alone cost more than 600 yuan. There are also burgers, fried chicken, barbecue and so on. It has become a must-order takeaway. Eat and drink for a month, 20% more than usual.

"It doesn't matter if you eat or drink, but you must buy clothes and cosmetics." Many girls may think the same as Cao Jing. The most visited homes are Taobao and Jingdong. A coat is nearly 1,000 yuan, a long skirt is more than 700 yuan, and a pair of casual shoes is more than 500 yuan. What does it mean? "Cao Jing told reporters with a smile. Although the expenses in the past month or so were far more than expected, as long as you are happy, it doesn't matter if you" repay the soil and pay the debts ".

In comparison, Cheng Xiaoli, the second child's mother, is going to save a lot. "During the epidemic, I did n’t ask for a babysitter at home, and my child did n’t take training classes, which saved a lot." Even so, she still saved her money for emergency needs. .
