1. *“Customer! Come now, I go do am for you!”* You’ve not even asked the price, but the ginger is already on 100%.
2. *Price starts at ₦15k and drops to ₦3k in 2 minutes.* Forget math. Nigerian bargaining is spiritual warfare.
3. *You’ll hear: “I get am for house”* even if they clearly don’t. That’s their way of buying time while they go borrow it from the next shop 😅
4. *You pick one item, 3 sellers rush you like you’re Dangote’s child.* “Buy from me, I go pray for you!”
5. *The way they chase you after you price and walk away…* “Come na! How much you wan pay? Talk now!”
6. *Someone beside you will always be shouting “Madam reduce am!”* Unsolicited backup squad for negotiation 😂
7. *Don’t wear fine clothes — they’ll triple the price immediately.* “You look like somebody that can afford am.”
If you’ve survived Balogun, Wuse, or Dugbe market, you deserve a national award 🏅👇🏽
