I haven't
But a friend of mine walked into a barbers shop on the island to have an emergency haircut.
When I mean haircut, I mean Abolo, what is called clean shave, nothing fancy.
When the bill came, he saw N3,000.00
This was the year 2015

Having to pay N850 for a bottle of water @ exclusive stores that I normally buy for N90 @Shoprite_NG
I refused to pay, after plenty dragging.
My friend paid for it. Outside, he collected his money back. Since then, learnt not to open a bottle till I know the price.

Friend invited me out to Auto lounge about 10-12 years ago as he was meeting some Kenyan blind date. She turned out to be a stunner, my boy forgot himself and started ordering champagne non stop to impress. Bill came to 380k and guy spent the next 6 months paying that bill

A restaurant in Maitama, Abuja. When the bill came the first thing that caught my eye was the bottle of Eva water. 2,000 naira.
I choked ten ways to Sunday. The food? 10,000 for a bowl of soup and handful of eba.
