Hello everyone, I know you're not familiar with me on this community so before I let out what I have in store for you, let me do a brief introduction of myself. I am Ihedigbo Victor but bears @bendelta28 here on Steemit, I'm a newcomer who's so excited to be here with you all. Quickly, I want to share my shopping diary here so please let's do it as it's my first time sharing this kind of diary, I hope it comes out the way I envisioned it.

I happened to embark on a shopping spree yesterday after I received my pay and I decided to share the details with you. I woke up yesterday with expectation of my salary though I have a shop, I still have a little job that pays me monthly and the pay comes in the second week of each month. It came earlier than expected, I woke up to the alert and I assumed the day's gonna be a blessed one. I had my morning devotion with my wife when I woke up, did my chores of sweeping the compound while my wife prepared breakfast. I had my bath and had breakfast of egg and some boiled potatoes.

In the afternoon, I set out to the market to shop foodstuffs that will last my wife and I till I get my next pay. I know some people may wonder why I didn't let my wife do the shopping, as a born hustler I prefer going to the market to experience the stress myself instead of letting my wife go through it and also, I love my wife being at the shop to attend to customers because she's more friendly while I run errands so I arrived at the market, it was necessarily a market but it's more like it. A mini Hausa market where their goods arrives and is being offloaded, things are being sold at a cheaper rate here but then, you have to be ready to drag goods with other people.

I arrived the mini market and saw plenty goods that had arrived that afternoon, goats, basket of pepper, yams, potatoes and a whole lot of other foodstuffs. I started picking the ones I needed one after the other and when I get tired, I rest and continue later. It wasn't easy, lots of other buyers would come to drag goods with me and most times I let them have the goods but if it something so attractive, I'd also drag with them but in all, I achieved my aim which was to shop for foodstuffs.

In the evening when I got home, I had my bath and some rest and even had a little meal which I wouldn't tag a dinner because i still had dinner later. I made some arrangements, I took some goods to the shop and kept the rest in the store for home use. When I returned home with my home after dropping some things off at the store, we had our dinner and I made some post of my blog which I had written before going to the market and went to bed. Thank you all for reading, until my next post.

## THANK YOU ALL
