F
Factcheck0001:
it's obvious u are still been fed by your parents so u don't know d prices of goods.

Rice 1bag 54k
Red oil 10k (it's not even up to that)
G oil 10k
Salt let's say 10k
With other things

E no add up
Where can you get g.oil for 10k? Pls let's be truthful for once. Even 5 litrs local refill oil is 12k. Kings is 20k. The red oil is okomu brand. If you don't know prices, just rest.

Re: December Rice Contribution by Bahamas95(m): 9:53pm On Dec 20, 2025
Anything contribution I don't do it, I prefer to buy my stuffs myself. Back then in secondary school my classmates organized themselves and did it (osusu) but I was the only one in my class who didn't join them......I just hate that thing from day one.


Anything that got to do with crowd is a no for me.

Big Bull rice is a local rice from Kebbi state. So it is not 75k, it's short grain rice around 56k. Foreign long grain is the one sold at 75k. The vegetable oil and the palm oil together cost 30k+. Other items on ground should be around 15k. Nigeria don spoil. Remaining change from the 120k will be taken as miscellaneous eg transport fare and soft change for the buyers that went to the market.

Good evening guys..
In my place of work we normally do end of year rice contribution to help ourselves so the burden won't be much.
This year we did 10k monthly that's 120k.
Below the is we package we received today.
Wished I had voice, would have suggested 1 n half bag of rice, most of this items they included don't freak me..
The items include
Rice
1 cartoon of Gino tomatoes (sachet ones)
5liter g.oil
4liter p.oil
2 packets of salt
1 bama
Maggi
Dish washing liquor n
Dental floss/toothpick

Pls guy check it out n point out your observations.
My wife from her body language is saying I was cheated
Sincerely i feel it's a fair deal..If you go to market your self, won't u pay transport?.i believe they added transport or foot the bill for the people they sent to d matket.Even if they brought it to their doorstep, they will still pay service charge and fuel.A good quality rice start from 60k the only thing dem for add join na veggies for salad.Make everything complete.

Well, that's not a bad thought, it's a reality. You could have just state it like that instead of just laughing like a clown.

Well, the country is in a terrible state, positive changes are not fast or massive. But people will not kill themselves, they will hustle more and continue to demand for more accountability and empathy from leaders, peacefully or violently.

Ok let's do a rough estimate of the items you got to see if you were cheated or not

1 cartoon of Gino tomatoes (sachet ones) - no idea (let me just put at 10k)
5liter g.oil ≈ 15k
4liter p.oil ≈ 14k
2 packets of salt ≈ 1k (N500 each
1 bama ≈ 3k
Knorr Maggi ≈ 2,500
Dish washing liquor (medium sized) ≈ 1500
Dental floss/toothpick ≈ 1k
Bag of rice ≈ 60k (most likely less)

Total ≈ N105k give or take 10k. I wouldn't exactly say you were cheated but the organisers can do better
Big bull diamond bag of rice is at least 75k. Rice has grade. With your analysis, the 120k is complete. No money taking for transportation to buy the items. He wasn't cheated at all but gained massively.

No walz.

Okomu Palm oil is managed by the Europeans or so in Edo State. It is a good palmoil company in Nigeria.

Salt is cheap and that Mr. Chef salt nor pass 1k. I'm saying this because a lot of Nigerians buy unbranded salt too and that is way cheaper.

I'm telling you, same here. It's better you save this money in a Piggyvest account monthly, at least Piggyvest is accountable. The change from that 120k can reach to buy 2 kilo of chicken and a pack of Fanta/Coke for his kids.
How do I go about this piggyvest thing
Re: December Rice Contribution by Mankind2024: 5:06am On Dec 21, 2025
If I were you, I would opt out of the workplace contribution in 2026.

I would buy shares of Okomu Oil Plc or Presco Plc monthly, and anytime I have disposable income.

The year you are able to acquire 1,800 units of Presco or Okomu shares, you will never worry about December spending again.

The dividend payout can be designated as December spending.

Both your invested capital and dividends keep growing while you sleep.

I still bought both oil today. Ground nuts is #11000 for 5 litres, same with the red oil though some sold it for 12k for 5 litres. Rice should be about 65-70k. I don't feel they cheated him though too but I just want to correct some amount. Booku here sell rice for #69000 for 50kg
most of those cheap oil they mixed it 50/50. I have seen where they mix it. Original red oil is not cheap. Get a genuine supplier that buys from villagers. Similar thing with groundnut oil. Buy 1 litre power oil. Avoid cheaper gallons. A litre is about 3500 for power.

You are not cheated bro. It is ok.

Re: December Rice Contribution by razzydoo(m): 9:00am On Dec 21, 2025
This is common practice amongst Nigerians especially Civil servants. So I think you got a fair deal. Don't mind your wife, boss. 😅
She's trying to extricate more money from your pocket. Don't fall for the gimmick.

Irrelevant nonsense

You can buy shares in ANY COMPANY WHATSOEVER. Totally unrelated to this topic. No connection whatsoever
