Popular Nigerian writer and founder of Genevieve Magazine, Betty Irabor has shared via her Instagram page how she almost got ripped off at a supermarket.
Narrating the event, the philanthropist shared that the supermarket had overcharged her for one of the products she purchased.
She started by saying she had mentally calculated the products she selected at the supermarket as N40,000 but was surprised when they charged her N65,455.90.
On their way out of the store, she was forced to go back, after seeing on the receipt that she was charged 49,740 for a salmon fillet, which a cashier had earlier told her cost 8,000.
She asked to see the supervisor, then went ahead to inform him that she had been over charged and they should refund her money.
After several rants with the supervisor, an apology followed next. She was told that their system had an error, hence why she was overcharged.
A part of her write up read;
“We are sorry it was a system’s error and you were right, the salmon cost 8k.”
This is so unbelievable. So that’s how I would have lost N41,000 in January of a new year. Here’s my account details just credit my account with my money. I am done. And that’s how a perfectly planned afternoon was ruined but hey, imagine if I hadn’t checked my receipts
You see, this new year, I nor dey gree for anybody.”
She ended her text with few tips to adhere to when shopping.
