I boycott anyone that tells me "DM for price". I nor dey do secret cult business.

Anytime I see "DM for price", my brain interprets it as SCAM. If you're not offering a service, then your price should be stated.

Not all, at times, Dm me for price is done just to ensure some people are put into consideration due to their environment or fanacial strength.....Items sold for higher price may go lesser.

This barber was barbing nonsense for me but I kept patronizing just on the basis of customer, not until one day when his clipper nearly cut my head and this guy had the guts to tell me in Yoruba that I'm a coward/fearful. I just kept my cool and resolved never no to go there again. It's been almost two years I last visited him but we see and greet almost everyday.

So you want him to apologize so you can call him a Simp abi? He's an alpha male abi redpill...whatever you guys call it in here. I support his actions. Lolzzz...real men don't apologise.

Thank you!

Dominos is wack pizza. It's better you make it yourself at home. You would think a foreign brand would be better, but apparently, once in Nigeria you must become a Nigerian. Substandard pizza.
Exactly. I am a pizza and ice-cream fan.....a massive one at that. Thankfully, I have tasted very good brands to know that Dominos is a huge scam.

Debonair's pizza. They used to offer free delivery but the delivery man was always late, like 3 -4 hrs late. By that time, i would have ordered something else for my visitors and it was always the same guy. And the distance from my place to the outlet was not far.

One say i vexed, ordered a pizza, the same delivery guy took 6hours to deliver the pizza, when he finally came,he kept giving me excuses. I just took the pizza without paying and told him to go. Because it was thier promise that if thier pizza was already cold and the red circle gone black, i could get the pizza free.

Another business i boycotted was MTN, can never use thier sim again
please why did u stop using MTN.... And which one do u use now

It is not lame, I created a thread on it HERE. Many people are actually put off by it. But I think for you to say you boycotted a business, you should have had previous dealings with the business.
I don't know if that thing annoys you more than it annoys me.
If you go to Spar, Shoprite, Justrite, Blenco etc and you are told to DM for items, will those nonsense social media vendors buy there again in their life?

I work with two good looking guys on my team, because I am their team lead .They always have a way of making me buy them breakfast at our popular hot buka joint .

When we get to this joint the female waiters always find a way to flirt and roll all their body for my male colleagues. Sometimes I even have to beg them to take my order because they get carried away in their flirting activities. They don't know that on this table of three I am the moneybag when it comes to that breakfast.

I had to boycott that buka joint because the same thing kept repeating itself.I cannot come and be begging on top my own hard money





jealousy...... just say you have a crush on the guys too. my sister those guys de see you as maga. they know you have a crush on them, so they are taking their time to chop your money. why are you using your hard earned salary to buy food everyday for two grown men.

it's always normal here to assume the guy is the money bag. The guys should have been the one to ask the ladies to take your order first.

Fanta Don Cool ooo!





And that was it.





There was this shop very close to our own shop when I was an apprentice. I used to go there every afternoon to buy Fanta. Lunch without fanta was always incomplete.


So I was just passing my own jejely with a friend on this particular day when the shop owner called out from inside.


"Dogo Fanta don cool oo"


I smiled and I said okay but inside I was like "eeh! So unah don take Fanta know me?"

That was the last they saw me.



ANOTHER ONE

There was a restaurant that I used patronize on days that I don't feel like cooking. I will just stop by to buy food and take home after closing from shop.

The waitresses there have this annoying habit of asking make I keep the change. I got tired of saying NO and stopped going there


Nothing kills a business like terrible customer centre that was why I left FIRST BANK .. their Allen branch, stupid bank!

Went to rectify my BVN Date of birth, with sworn affidavit of date declaration, my other bank has accepted the bvn and the document then I wanted to rectify the one in Fist bank the stupid customer centre said that I should go and do a channge of name in newspaper and age...

I left that bank ... That was all, I left the peanuts in thee account and moved

I have this hairstylist that makes my hair..
I informed her I will be making my hair the following week and we agreed on a particular date.
A day to the agreed date, I called to remind her and she said she was ill and that she will make my hair for me in another three days time, I agreed.
I called her on the third day she booked for me only for her to tell me she is going for home service and that I should wait till the following day.
I just carry my leg go do my hair for another shop and since then I stop patronizing her shop.

Another one nah Dominion pizza for Akure shoprite, I ordered for 3900 pizza only for them to deliver flour garnished with onion... Like wtf

In a country where every body want to become rich over night and looking for way out

Your Business can't survive only if you are ready to sacrifice your time without employ anyone

You see in this country Nigeria ,there are certain business that can survive you with staff if not my people all your workers are praying for any short cut to make it

Because the monthly pay is not always not their desire
