Touching Message: A Must-read by Nobody: 9:17pm On Jul 27, 2015
Just read this post and it was very touching. I'm quite guilty of this too and it ain't right most times

"The next time you want to buy some stuff..... remember this.
Most times when we walk into big shopping malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy bananas or any roadside foods/goods, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. A poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you that the banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough etc. But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not buying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. However because 'half-bread is better none, this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain.
In her heart, she cries. She's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that "It's well, God will definitely provide.''
While you happily enjoy the luscious bananas at home, pls take some timeout and think about that poor trader. Please don't bargain hard or unnecessarily with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags or Gucci shoes but just to LIVE and EAT!!!!
