Guess the Denim Jacket I’ll Buy and Win 1 Hive Each! 🎉👖 || My Shocking Price Story
I could not believe my eyes! When I saw the price for a denim jacket that I asked from an online vendor. So I asked myself? Is this how clothes are this expensive?
And it all begins with the picture below:
This coming sunday, my church at Abeokuta is celebrating their 20th anniversary. Because it is a special occasion, the musicians of the church, which some people may call us instrumentalists, chose a uniform for the program. That is where the denim jackets came to be.
Here is the genrated image using Meta AI of what we wanted the uniform to look like on us that day. This may not be exactly for everyone but a very close look. Some people may choose to wear blue denim, which would have a very different look. Here is another generated image of a blue denim jacket.
For real, Meta AI (Llama 3.2) does really great at generating images, most especially for the fact that it is also easily accessible and free to use! I am glad I was born in this generation.
A nice view of my chat with Meta AI simply requesting it to generate the images above.
BACK TO THE ORIGINAL STORY
I cannot answer the question, but please, if you can, kindly use the comment session below. The image below is a picture of my chat with the vendor when I asked her for the price.
Do you see what I am seeing? 👀👀
#25,000 for a jacket; you will not believe what my budget was before asking for the price. I literally laughed at myself so hard. Okay, for real, I was expecting 7,000 naira or 10,000 naira max.
Imagine seeing 25k; I bet you can imagine my reaction to it.
Right now, I do not know what to do, whether to get it or not. So I thought, why not rant my thought here? Maybe at least I could raise some money to get the jacket because I cannot afford 25,000 naira like this. I am presently laughing at my broke self.
Imagine just $15 is making a rant like this. This 2025, I must 100x my finances.
Here are the jackets; tell me the ones you love in the comment section below.

An idea just popped in: let us play a game here!
Out of these 4 shirts, guess the one I have in mind to buy for the event. I am staking down 4 Hive for the game. The first 4 people that correctly guess the shirt I have in mind of buying will get 1 Hive each. If it is less than 4 people that get it right, the 4 Hive will be split among those who got the guess correct.
So here is to tag a few friends I think may be interested in this game:
@olujay, @nkemakonam89, @maryed, @sugarelys, @ebass, @fashtioluwa, @ebass, @hopestylist
When making your guess, I would appreciate inviting a friend or two to also participate. And if you want to give the post a reblog, it would truly gladden my heart.
Thank you very much for participating. 💖

I am not so suprised that it cost 25k for denim. I mean you are going for something quality too, I can tell from the pictures. But your budget is actually funny compared to the price of the vendor😂.
Hmmm guessing the one you want ?
I'll be back.....
bro, I was shocked with the price, but man has no choice. I guess you gat Gcaps now.
So what is your guess?
I guess you'd choose the 3rd jacket.
Online ventures can be unnecessarily pricey most times. Have you thought of visiting offline stores? You might be surprised at the cheapest price you could get the jacket.
The third image is my favorite, I think you might go for that one.
Unless it's fake! They are quit expensive simply because of the current state of our currency and we don't manufacture it here. You could get some as much as 50k depending on where you are ordering from.
Yes I thought about this too online vendors are pricey, I remember I wanted to buy one jersey and they told me 27k but when I visited a store I saw it for less like very very less , so I think you should visit a physical store if you have the strength
I have thought of it but I am lazy to leave my house. Also I don't think there will be much difference if I go to nearby stores around here. that is because they are boutiques, and their clothes are very expensive.
Yeah, online stores offers convenient.
I wish you best of luck getting the jacket you desire.
Hustle make person cloths no go intimidate you when you hear the price.
omoor. true talk oh.. Make I run go hustle.
Because you didn't tag me sha, but let me guess.
I think the third one.
I'm choosing this one because I like the colour 😁 not because I know what you like o
lol... I see. You have quite a good taste you know.
Hehe.... I know right 😁, I also have a idea for my class denim on denim day.
Omo expenses will choke o
Haha, guys clothes are always so expensive (everyone sha but… 👀) well, I’m not surprised at all because the jackets looks cool and worth it.
For my guess, I will go with the second one that has writings on it. I love clothes that have cool writings on them but besides that, I think that one will suit you more, hehe.
Peace out. ✌️😁
seriously? does this means that ladies clothes are a lot more cheaper?
Yeah the second one is really nice. Nice choice you made there
They are not cheap either but guys clothes are expensive. 😂
You know how you were budgeting 7k for it? Exactly, that’s how it should be but no. 🤣
I’m looking forward to see the one you bought on you. 🤭
When I saw the price, I was like 'wow'. Ok, I think you'll choose between the first and second one. The reason I said that is because they are less flashy and the inscriptions on them are not as much as the ones made on the remaining jackets.
My best guess would be the first one, but the second one looks nice too.
So this means your final answer is the first one right. Yeah they are less flashy which makes them really nice.
Lol, I have had this experience severally since the Tpain era. Things are always above your budget, sometimes I begin to wonder if the traders all planned it.
Well, I guess you will go for the last one (IV)
brother! Naira does not have value again, that is why it feels we are paying more for all these items.
I don't know your taste but I feel that you will choose the number 1.
I am here to steal the Hive from others.
!PIZZA
nice! I like what you did there. Thanks for picking a choice
I feel you'll be interested in the ii jacket. 😁
By the way, I get the feeling of having a budget in mind for something then all of a sudden, you see something totally different. I've been there trust me. It's Nigeria for you though.
Greetings!
I really hope to reach the level that I would not be moved when I hear prices of things. Man really needs to work on increasing his income.
Thanks for picking a choice
Interesting, I'll go for the first jacket (I) I looks cool and simple.
Concerning the price of things, well, Welcome to Nigeria. If you have a budget, just multiply it by 3 so as not to get dissapionted😂. It's really heartbreaking but it's what it is
Man! This is the real truth oh. Prices of things are not smiling.
Well not just clothes but everything is now expensive in Nigeria. This is something we'll have to to live with for now. For the jacket, I like the number 111 most and I guess that's the one you'd be going for
Yeah that too is very nice! Have you been to Nigeria before?
I live there 😃😃
Hehehe 😃... clothes are quite expensive this days...the world economy hasn't been pleasant and I guess it's what affected many things today
Oh boy..those jackets are unique and obviously not surprised about the price. At Lagos market, I priced some jackets and it's still sahe range ..
For the game..I am guessing jacket number one.. looks cool🧥
@princessbusayo game on oo 🎊🥳
seriously, it was the same range at Lagos. That means I should close my eye and go for it.
You made a nice choice. Thanks for participating
Yes.. just buy it star ⭐
And they are all looking classy 👌
25K? That's wild. My guess is that you'll pick the second one. Fingers crossed...
Hmmm. let us watch and see my bro
i OR iv 🤓
You pick one my bro.
You would get the third one
That one looks more like your style
And it’s not that cost na
Maybe it could have been like #17 or #18
@kingsleyy what do you think
yeah 17 or 18k may still be manageable but 25k... omoor.
You are capable but that doesn't mean they should cheat you sha. My boss
Let me laugh first 😂😂😂😂
I saw where he said he was expecting 7k for the price. People that have money can be funny ehhh.
@starstrings01 has money. He should buy everything.
🚪👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯👨🦯
I'm not even surprised by high prices anymore
I just tell myself sometimes that it's not expensive..na me just broke😂
Also..It's denim and I think the prices would probably be quite less if you went to a market or something.
Plus..things that are tailored more to be bought by men usually have ridiculous price tags.
I'm guessing you'll go with the second one..It just looks like it has the perfect balance between all 4
hmm what you said is true... it looks like it has the perfect balance.
Exactly what was going through my mind when I was writing the post.
