Wow,una dey enjoy for Lagos. Things are still cheap in Lagos, compared to South EAST. This food stuffs you bought for 8,500 in Lagos is worth over 15k here in the EAST.

We are really suffering here in the East. Buhari and UN should come to our aid. An average man can no longer afford to eat in the East. Price of everything has gone beyound the reach of the comon man in the East.

The media is not reporting the rate at which we are suffering here.

Sense will forever elude you.

It's very easy to spot a thieftinubu urchin.

Enjoy your stupidity while it last.

The oil Man .. well-done

Money wey you for take buy other things, you use am buy oil...

Na lion meat be that?

That's bthe only meat they can sell for you at the quantity for that amount....

Honestfrend:
I hve done lots of calculations I have come 2 conclusion that it is better 2 eat at a small restaurant than cook it at home..

Although not all food... Food I eat outside. Rice, beans, yam, swallow.

Food I prepare at home noodles, fry eggs n bread, spaghetti, tea n bread..

OP with that ur 8k.. An ok for 1 week..

When you fall sick, do you know how much you will spend.

Most food that you can eat and be satisfied for 1k are just poison, trust me, everyone has different body, some, the moment they eat rubbish the very next day you can see the effects (like me), some will eat rubbish for up to 2 years no problem, the day it will knock them down, 2 weeks they are still in the woods.

Let me explain something, you see the oil he bought, 99% of food seller that sells cheap won't use it, in Lagos, we buy everything including water, have you ever considered the water used for cooking the food you eat, some of the water you can't use it to take a bath, if you do, you can get skin diseases.

99% of the food sellers in Lagos use Ajilomoto, (a chemical substance use for bleaching clothes), they won't use chicken knor or any good flavour, they buy meat that seller couldn't sell, use acid/omo to fasten the fermentation of fufu, pomo, plantain and lots more.

Hmmm refill my 12.5kg cylinder today for #900 per kg thus #11,250 to fill up was counting the money with enuf anger on my mind I was standing at the gas station for complete 5mins and I still have another 10kg cylinder I will fill probably next week that's another 9k if the price still remains #900 next week...


Taking the total to #20,250 to fill my two cylinder.......

This is my humble suggestion, and i hope you find it helpful : why not get a good second hand hot plate? It may cost 7-10k, depending on variables. My household use it for basically anything cooking, and boy, it's super efficient and fast and cheap.

Really

If you really want to help them. U can at least locate them and also do all u can to pull them off the situations that results to them begging online.

I understand your concerns. Nigeria which way? For 60 G*ddamn years, this country has been plagued with power issues with no end in sight. Little wonder the country is where it is today.

he is on almost all threads on nairaland...begging since 2018...it's really tiring!

THAT MEAT IS 1000 NAIRA IN ZARIA

If you are surprised, I'm not, that shows how useless our naira has become and our useless government keep deceiving themselves claiming to be doing their best

I have decided against cooking long ago.
Things are so expensive that right now it is better to eat the junks outside than to prepare a decent meal at home.

God help us

Many of una dey craze for this Nairaland...

GeneralPula:

Aswr

Meat is 1500...stop exaggerating

Everything don add money o, 8k used to buy for foodstuffs one will use in a month o, now it's just a meal plus.

Las las I'll just have to register for the Next Titan Nigeria show, the season 9 is on and winning that 20 million naira will really go a long way.

Funny enuf they never learn, time has reach to make another choice of leaders from councilor LGA chairman, governors, house of rep, senator to the president.. will they make the right choice

If things do not change household might start cooking with firewoods inside their flats

Earlystar698:
Them beat cheat you for meat, ain't buying that meat for 2k,1500 or 1700 and it's will be bigger than yours

No it won't. I counted it and it's 3k worth of meat. No cheating but if the op was a professional haggler like me maybe they will add one or two of those size as Jara.

That meat pass 3ƙ for Enugu here, please let's be Obidient and vote out bad leaders.

SmartPolician:
Good evening, Nairalanders.

I hope you people are doing great.
So, I decided to go to a Lagos market, buy ingredients for stew and make a pot of stew.

This is what I could buy with over 8k.

Meat = 3k
Veg oil= 4k (King's oil - 2 litres)
Tomato and pepper = 600
Maggi = 100
Onions= 100
Tomato paste = 500 (5 sachets)
Curry leaves = 100

Total = #8400

I want to use this opportunity to appeal to Mr. Seun to incorporate into Nairaland bots that will track keywords used for online begging and block them.

Since some people have decided to foist on everyone bad leaders whom we clearly know have no plans for the country. Let's suffer together if they win but begging on Nairaland should be banned.

oga , GOD will bless your generations for this request you made.

The idiots will play tribal cards because they have no job , nothing to lose because they have no business . When it goes their way , they will resort to begging. Fateless urchins . Anybody who persuades anyone to vote APC for any reason is CURSED already!!!!! Very cursed. Don’t tell me that you have the right to vote anyone you like . I have the right to talk and i have spoken

lolzz 2028! ... That must be his occupation #nairaland begger.

FreeStuffsNG:

Obviously, you did not read what I wrote because of your bigotry and hatred for President Buhari who is not in charge of states and LGs . Nowhere in the world that governments do not intervene when prices of commodities are going up especially if those commodities are sourced locally. There can be farm straight to home markets where government can assist the sellers and restrain them from over profiting because of the temporary global food shortages caused by Ukraine war.
The problem with most of you is that you just want to lament and go without any solution suggestion.

yea blame it on LGA, state govt and Ukraine war, it's has been lame blame since inception. You wasted more than 4 yrs blaming GEj, thereafter blame covid, still blaming Ukraine for your incapacitation. Very shameless set of people
