A Day At One Of Nigeria's Local Market.

Hello Everyone.

I visited the edor market on Sunday, it will surprise you that Christians prefer to go to the market and make sales than go to church. The edor market is a local market in Cross River State that takes place after every 5 days and therefore whether it falls on a Sunday or not, tradition must commence and sales must be made but it's disheartening how Christians prefer to be at the market and not in church.

After church I need some vegetables and stuffs to cook and therefore I had no other option than to go to edor market and this time I was thankful Christians preferred to be at the market.

After spending almost 30 minutes at the bus stop I finally got a taxi going my way and I immediately stopped the taxi and squeezed myself in just to enable me arrive the market on time. I arrived the market at exactly 2:45PM and at the entrance of the market I saw a woman selling vegetables and I asked her for the prices and she told me, then I took the amount I needed and left to get other things.

_{I bought vegetables for 300 naira which is equivalent to 2.3 steem.}

_{I bought tomato paste for 600 which is equivalent to 4.1 steem.}

_{I bought garden eggs for 500 naira which is equivalent to 3.5 steem.}

I used one stone to kill two birds as I decided to buy detergents and soaps for the house, it was not on my list but I had to squeeze it in.

_{I bought detergents and soaps for 1,300 naira which is equivalent to 9.2 Steem Currently.}

My mom sells crayfish and other food items so I was asked to buy polythene bags that will be used for the packaging of her goods.

_{I bought polythene bags for 800 naira which is equivalent to 5.4 Steem.}

_{Groundnut oil for frying the stuffs earlier purchased won't be bad, so I bought oil for 1500 naira which is equivalent to 10.4 Steem Currently.}

Conclusion.

I don't why on this side of the world, we only experience inflation but never experience deflation, due to the inflation in the price of goods and services I was unable to get all that I needed.
