BRT Tickets In Lagos
In Lagos N500 will get you an average of 3 BRT Tickets in Lagos for a ride in any location with the average price of a bus ride being N150.

Used ‘2nd Hand’ Books
There are lots of roadside booksellers in different cities in Nigeria, this is not to advice against buying brand new books, but there are lots of books one can buy in Lagos for an affordable price. Short motivational books, history of Nigeria books, etc.

Airtime
N500 Airtime will give you the opportunity to talk for an average of 10 mins on any network of your choice.

5 Litres OF Petrol For Your Generator
N500 will get you an average of 5 Litres of fuel in most states in Nigeria. In Lagos the average price of fuel is N96.50, in Abuja N94.60, Rivers 99.71, and Akwa Ibom N106.00. Your “I better pass my neighbor” generator will go with this measurement for an average stretch of six hours.
