Nairalanders will be calling a generation "Indomie Generation".
When this sim pack was been sold was when Indomie came out too.
In fact indomie stuff started as far back as the early 90s! Yeah, 'cos I remember that a classmate of mine (secondary school) was given a carton of it by her father to share to us as samples (experimental(if there's a word like this) stage). I found it so gross.

But then I wouldn't call the 90s indomie age 'cos people weren't into it that well then.

Why would you guys fail to understand what indomie is really signifying here...

When I bought my sim card at 13.5k.

When call were on per minute billing at N50/minute. If you flash and someone picks for a second, N50 gone.

When SMS was N15.

When only recharge cards of 1.5k, 3k and 6k were available.

We really hear am for MTN and Econet hand o

Yes I do.
Re: Do You Still Remember This (picture) by NightHawke: 8:45pm On Apr 05, 2015
I bought my Mtn sim then for N30,000

The attached Nokia 3310 aka 'the rock' for N28,000

While making calls at N50/min

The only bonus from mtn was dropped calls such that 1min call can cost upwards of N300 or more depending on your location.

Well, it has always been used to depict 'soft times', if I may use that. The jet age; a time when kids didn't really 'play', when some stuffs/gadgets were no longer in use. Hence the old mtn simpack

By the way, mine is still intact, looking very new with the receipt and sim certificate. grin

The 'good-old-days' grin

The Op quoted early 2000s and mentioned indomie, and I was only trying to let him know that indomie had been there befor the 21st century.

Wow, the 21st century! Makes 20th century seem so archaic. grin
