On the first working day after the Chinese Spring Festival, many Internet users posted their festival expenses in Web communities and forums.
The Internet users, mostly born in the 1980s, provided detailed information on consumption that may be indicative of social trends.
It was reported that they spent a considerable amount of money on gifts or hongbao to their parents and elder relatives and that proves that young people, who are mostly single children, are not as selfish or egotistical as some had assumed.
