The DiaryGame- My Saturday Activities-24/07/21. I Went To Buy Some Building Materials For Some Work In My House And Fixing Doors At My House With The Help Of My Earns From Steemit
Hello Steemians, am glad to share with you once more. I really had a very tight day but was able to do all what I intend to do. There is a saying that "make hey when the sun shines". So I decided to go to the market and buy some building materials for some small work in my house. But before then am glad that this money I use was a money I got from Steemit. Steemit will continue to feed lives and give people's shelter. I needed some doors so I first visited a carpentry shop, when I went there and ask of the price I was shocked to hear that our own local door is more expensive than the imported once. The prices of the doors ranges from GH¢350.00 - GH¢500.00. These doors does not come with neither frames nor Keys. And after putting the prices of the frames,doors and keys together plus the person who will fix it, it was around GH¢950.00 so I opted for an imported doors we Ghanaians normally call it __China Doors__. But before then I have already inquire about the China doors and the single one cost GH¢830 and 1 and half too cost GH¢ 1200. So I went and bought a single door 1, and the 1 and half two I'm all they were 3 doors at the splendor shop at Adum Kumasi and brought them to the site for the Mason to work on them.
At The Carpentry Shop inquiring About Doors
After I brought the doors for the Mason to work on it for me, I then went to Kwadaso where they sell board, plywood, frames and many others. I went there to buy some plywood for the carpenter to use to seal two rooms I intend to move into. I was able to buy 19 sheets of plywood, 5 pounds of 3 inches nails, 4 pounds of 4 inches nails. After I was done I then brought them to the site for the carpenter to work on Monday.
Buy Some Plywood
On my way to the building site, I decided to get the workers some food to eat. I bought them Gari and Beans with rice.

It was a tiring day though, thanks for sharing with us.
Yes ooo but I manage to do all.
So if I understand correctly the products that arrive from abroad cost less than those made in Ghana, is that so?
