A visit to the market in search of foodstuffs

It's another day to showcase our market experience, and I'm excited to show you some of what I experienced and the items I purchased during my visit to the market. I actually went to stock my kitchen with some more food stuffs because it seems as though I'll have a long month ahead, given the fact that my salary was paid very early last month in order to help the Muslim workers have funds to celebrate the last Eid.

I was surprised to receive my salary on the 20th of last month; it was way too early, and given the fact that we have a long month ahead, I was worried. Plus,  I was to travel to a wedding last week, which I expected to require a lot of money for transport fare and gifts for the couples. Before I traveled, I purchased some food and also left some money at home so I wouldn't be forced to withdraw and spend it well at the wedding.

Well, fast forward from there. After getting home from the wedding, a few days ago I picked up the money I hid at home and paid a visit to a neighboring market to purchase some more food stuffs to serve me and my family during the lengthy month of May and before the salary will be paid. Moving forward, I had a list to purchase yam, onions, and some beans.

On entering the section where yams are being sold, I saw a boy pushing a wheelbarrow, which I presume he's helping anyone who ever purchases large items to move their goods to their car or bus station outside the market. He's probably just between 10 and 13, not excited about it, but there is little I can do about it, so I moved to the yam section and was able to purchase 6 turbers of yam for 3000 naira.

I couldn't locate any of the bean sellers, and I later learned the vehicle bringing their goods from the north had issues on the way, but then I saw a store where plastic stuff is being sold, and I purchased a parked for parking dirt after sweeping; the one I used before got broken, and this was sold at just 300 naira.

Here is the place I purchased the onions I needed, although I don't like how he placed his leg around the onions that one will be eating or adding to our food, but there is little I can do because if one complains, they'll only ask you to visit somewhere else, but most of them do the same, and theirs is much cheaper. I purchased an onion for 200 naira, and he gave me 8 pieces.

In total, everything I purchased was just 3500 naira, and I guess I'll need to visit the market some other time to purchase my other needs.

That's all on my experience at the market the last time I went. I hope you enjoyed the read. I like to appreciate @dswigle for a wonderful job she's doing in the #MarketFriday community.
