100 DAYS OF STEEM : Day 78 - Friday Challenge - (How Much Does Your Shopping Cost?).
Woji Shopping Mall
As a business person Covid-19 pandemic asmdversly affected all business concerns. Many businesses closed up as a result of total luck down. Life has not been easy and my optimisym has waned.
Now, back to the question. "How Much Does Your Shopping Cost". What determines the quantity and quality of good to purchase is how much in terms of cash available to you.
With the pandemic luck-down, the volume of goods available is reduced because of the closure is country boarders.This makes it difficult for goods to come in from other countries. It has become obvious that the prices goods and commodities skyrocket.
