Nigerian lady visits market in the UK
At the market, which was shown in the TikTok video, many of the items she purchased were displayed.
She said at the beginning of the video, mentioning the amount she took to the market:
Her statement:
“Let’s test the UK economy and see how far £20 can go. I decided to take a walk to save money and also exercise.”
“I got to where I was going and, of course, with my list so I don’t end up buying what I don’t need, and this was everything I was able to buy with my £20 (N36,149.34).”

@kanyinsola_a continued in the clip, displaying everything that she bought with the specific amount she took to the market.
“Let me show you: two bowls of grapes, two bowls of okra because I love it, an egg pack of 8 to 10 pieces for £2 (N3,614.93), two bowls of tangerines, and carrots.”
“This is what £10 (18,075.41) got me. Do you think this is a steal or daylight robbery?”
The items she was able to buy despite taking a small amount to a market in the UK surprised many people, who took to the comment section of the post to share their thoughts.

"I think it was a good buy. That much grapes alone in Nigeria should be around N20,000."

"Whats the minimum wage per hour? if its even 5 dollars per hour, this is still a big steal."
