Since I paid for a plate of fufu with bitter leaf soup for 1k . I always ask the price before making order I hate public embarrassment

So I decided to sit and rest. I dropped at ShopRite and sat just by the Food Spot. After few hours, I got hungry. I decided to get myself a plate of Rice at the moment.

I stood and asked the lady to give me a plate of Fried Rice, a lap of chicken and a wrap of moi-moi with a bottle of water.

When I asked of my bill, she said ₦5,200.

I smiled, paid and walked back to my seat.
But while on the meal, I tried to figure out how the bill came about. I couldn't place it.

See the plate of food below.

Won't the staff, air-conditioning, rent and others be serviced from your food? You know where to go if you want this same food for N2k, no dey disturb us abeg.

KingClavi:


She did.

I have her ₦5,500 and she said don't have ₦300 to gimme.

I intentionally left because I'll come back to have her tag the prices of the food she served me.

Hahaha. That change stuff is too common.

Just ask for the manager's number or their superiors that you want to discuss with him/her about a business proposal.


And always keep a straight face, don't get so chatty with them. Na to eat food, carry you go there.

A friend once told me this:
Whenever you visit a fastfood, always ask for the price of anything you want to buy.
Always ask.

Don't assume you know the prices.
Ask for the price.
Before you buy something that'll wreck you.
So far, I've followed the advice.

Nigerians are scared to ask. Even if they do and find it is too expensive or it does not make sense, pride or is it shame will not let them back out. They will be pay and have issues swallowing the food. "They let pride carry they go where them no know".
