i knew it - you have to be an ijebu woman to come up with these ground breaking ideas. i am sure you also form an association to share a crate of eggs too. after all, it cheaper when 5 people share 30 eggs!
Hahahahaha!!

What you expect me to buy them eggs that are 2 for 3? And run the risk of great great great grandmama rising outta her grave just to smack me upside the head? No way!! grin

I I'll be in aberdeen in a couple of weeks for masters. I'm connecting through dubai to London, then to aberdeen. If I want to shop cheaply, where should I do it. I'm talking of buying everything, like clothes, footwear,electronics,toileteries,soaps,books ipods,bags,wristwatches,perfumes,wallets and the list goes on. Where can it be cheaply done, Dubai,London or Aberdeen?

Also in aberdeen, can I get a shared flat for like £300p/m. A well furnished flat including all bills for that price. I don't mind sharing the kitchen and toilet.

What about Nigerian foodstuffs, where do one get that in Aberdeen and offcourse at very cheap prices?

I have lived in that area before. Woking and surrounding areas - Guildford, Weybridge, Egham, Byfleet etc are very expensive.

You'd love MacLaren's base in Woking, though smiley
Re: Why Is UK So Expensive??? by dustydee: 4:59pm On Aug 03, 2012
^^ any ideas about places around I could live that are relatively cheaper?
Re: Why Is UK So Expensive??? by debosky(m): 5:16pm On Aug 03, 2012
^^ How much is cheap - what's your budget? Do you plan to walk/cycle/use the train/drive to work?

You can do a simple search on a site like rightmove and get useful results.

http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-to-rent/find.html?locationIdentifier=REGION%5E1474&minPrice=500&maxPrice=1000&minBedrooms=1&maxBedrooms=2&displayPropertyType=flats&radius=5.0

Woking and Guildford are your best options in that area. Go for Guildford if you like nightlife and dem Oyinbo chicks.

Other areas dey very expensive and full of Oyinbo millionaires and Chelsea footballers, e.g. Weybridge, Chertsey, Goldaming, Cobham. Mikel, Essien and most Chelsea ballers live there. But, who knows, may be na you wan head Goldman Sachs' new office in that area. You fit also be new Engineer for BAE systems. smiley


Clapham Junction is not that far from there, though. Cheaper too

madridsta007: The name London, is like a brand... Albeit, a dwindling one, I must admit. People come here not because that they can not get what they want in their home countries or other countries of the world, but just because of the hype, 'I have been to London'. And the government then milks people through taxes, they simply tax anything taxable and non-taxable. From the airports, to schools, to councils, to train and bus tickets, to goods and services. Like someone earlier said, it is a multiplier effect as the landlords, the small Indian-own shops, the phone providers etc, make sure the consumer bear a brunt of the taxes. Very soon, we shall soon, I foresee in the future that the air we breath, we would soon be taxed of it.

It is a brand that the government uses effectively. Trust me, the city London is so over-hyped. Travel across countries and you will slowly have a apartheid-like detest for London. However, people are slowly moving away from the attraction and hype that is 'London' hence, the fall down the rankings as in the most-expensive cities list.


[b][size=16pt]Don't think so, bro!!

You got to know the Country behind the City you're talking about

And, for it to fall down in ranking as you dream - you'd first of all, smash the 'HISTORY' of this country then, your dream will come true until then, keep dreaming...!

Remember, London has been going on as a city since the 10th Century - so, she is not a young girl, ok!

Generations move in and out of London. Before this generation, there was one before and they all have moved out, both in the country and other parts of the world.

You see, this is the way it works - before you hit London, put on your thinking cap and devise a strategy to quickly make your money and get out of the 'rat race' else, you'd sink in - why?

Because, if you don't take your time, 'Every penny you make in London, you spend in London and you won't have 2 pence left, to rub together, let alone take the money home, to Niga'.

It is obodo oku na eri ego - Magic city, American wonder!!!

So use your brain, work hard and make your money quick and leave the city that's the key!!

London can make some people millionaires quick and others very, very poor indeed!

Billyonaire: Guy, take am easy, this was supposed to be fun interaction, but I know you guyz in UK dont find life funny anymore.

...And what makes you think a red P as you said is a guarantee of a bright future? My friend, in life, the color of your passport is not the determinant of your altitude in life. It takes the grace of God and sheer determination, drive and being proactive. Get it and drum it into your kids ears, bro.
