One morning in early April, Li Fanfan, an elementary school teacher in the central Chinese city of Zhengzhou, set an alarm so that she could grab one of the one million consumption-voucher packages the local government was distributing online.
In about two and a half minutes, 50 million yuan (RM30.46mil) worth of e-coupons were snapped up, according to local media. Li was among the lucky ones, receiving a package of five vouchers with three different values totaling 50 yuan (RM30.46). She went to a shopping mall and spent about 400 yuan (RM244) on top of the coupons for two meals, two shirts and some accessories.
