There's one thing av noticed about successful people or let me say rich people, they are a bit mean in any area of their life especially when it comes to money......

I just feel if ya not a little heartless you won't make it in this part of the world...

Yuneehk:

It's really annoying when I see rich people 'price' stuffs from these poor women. Some will go to the extent of not buying it even if their price and that which the traders are willing to sell it at is just ten naira

AdaNri1:
but they can go to a kiosk and buy it cheaper. When the super market experiences low patronage they'll reduce prices.

The annoying thing is that rich folks will pay thousands of Naira for a small item in supper markets but will offer N50 for a bunch of banana from these women.

It breaks my heart seeing traders like this & how customers bargain with them. You'd hear convos like:

Customer: Madam how much for 5?
Trader: Na six hundred o.
Customer: How much last?
Trader: Pay 500
Customer: No o. I go give you 200
Trader: Madam no be so, orange don cost. Na 400 i buy 5. E no gree 200 ma. Pay 450.
Customer: No o. Madam answer me i no get time.
*walks away*

Then when same customer gets to shoprite to buy same oranges
Customer: Hello, how much are these?
Rude Attendant: The label is there ma.
Customer: *Looks at label and sees '5 for 1500'*. Wow, it's alright. Give me 10. *Hands over 4000 to attendant and says 'keep the change'.

kaffy4tope:

I don't understand, is it wrong to bargain?

Has anyone here ever been duped by a supposed poor woman or man? how does it feel?

So because an Okada rider looks poor, I should allow him charge me N1000 for a journey that naturally cost N50? Because he's on Okrika jacket, while I'm on suit and tie?

I will not stop bargaining till Christ comes. I will bargain with the poor, with the rich, and with everyone when & where necessary.

However, if the condition of a poor woman or man touches my heart, I would solely GIVE without necessarily buying anything. Bargaining with the poor or the rich can never be wrong. Some of these so called 'poor" shop owners are way richer than some of us who pretend to OWN all the money in the bank. Business is business, charity is charity.

Define rich?

What makes you think they have enough to spare? Imagine a situation whereby everyone expects you to pay heavily because you rich, what would happen do you think would happen to your wealth? Wait till you get there before judging!

jamst2:


Huh! Guy,those kind of peeps are alreadly within your sourrounding(environment)...have you done same things to them

sabama007:


So, if she calls a piece of orange for #2000 I shld just pay? Cmon!

kaffy4tope:





Ain't in Naija mahn u don't see this kinda situation here

...I want this particular woman.

amokeme:

God bless you! Uv said it all.. Most people commenting here are just sentimental. I mean, I believe in charity alot (I even have my own charity outreach) what I dont like is people mandating or expecting you to because you are "rich" for goodness sakes, why can't individuals satisfy their conscience, mind their business and move on?! But no, the next thing you will hear is the "rich this poor this" if I decide to go to a super market, it's my money... and if I decide to help someone, it's also my money. All the people commenting the rich is this and that here are the ones that don't even help anybody! Or you don't know your 50 naira can go a long way Be waiting for a rich man to come and dash her 500k Mtcheeew.. We are just hypocrites!
The annoying thing and at the same time funny is, if someone decides to locate this woman to help her, the same category of people calling on the "rich" will say it's "publicity stunt" mehn! The mentality of an average Nigerian youth is pathetic
An ignorant person is already saying this is another olajumoke is the making. You can imagine such comment. Is just sad

Reference:
But why is she asleep right in the middle of her business cycle. If she cannot manage her time well then her priorities are not right. Most times it is a little bit of wisdom that people need to move to the next level, not always about money or the lack of it.

jamst2:

Well,i have them wella...if you want i can link you

Ligxy:

You go stingy o. How much is 2k? Looking at her like that, can't you dash her 2k without buying anything from her? And of cos you know you just exaggerated.

Musician Jazzman Olofin shared this photo of a woman and her child who fell asleep by the roadside while selling fruits. He wrote: "Struggling mothers like this... Don't bargain with them, instead pay more. Show a little love, share a little hope. Survival is a tearful battle for most, especially with children. In God we trust... Happy Sunday!". Well said...

Go siddon!

We should never encourage extortion. If she calls a piece of orange N5 or N10, I would buy because we all know the value, and of course, give her money if I have the means (money as charity; it has nothing to do with the orange).

However, if she calls a piece N400, I would simply walk away and get a piece from a supermarket, not minding her condition (poor or hungry).

What we should be preaching is Charity & Honesty, not IGNORANTLY paying N5000 for a N200 worth of good. That's not charity, it is what it is - MU.MU.

Very Rich folks are the MOST STINGY things to ver grace the face of the earth!

That is how they got rich in th first place, robbing the poor on one hand and being tight-fisted on the other hand!


Even when they "give', they are doing it for "karimi/come-see-me" or just to spite the poor person

Ligxy:

That is why I said he just exergerated. Nobody is talking about not bargaining here. But some people, especially ladies bargains to the point of annoyance, because they know she has no choice, her goods are perishable, so she has to sell. Some people will even keep driving while bargaining, making the sellers run after their cars just because she won't reduce #50. We see these things daily. I do bargain too, but when I know it's withing the range of a fair price, I pay and move on.
