This has got to be the best post, too hilarious!! But Pondi needs serious prayers!!! There is something called rent parties or something where you host a party at your house and charge a reasonable amount at the door. You advertise it as much as possible, then you buy cheap snacks and tell people to BYOB. You can make a neat sum from the cover charge and since Kenyans love to party, Im guessing it will cover your expenses. Though this is more lucrative for people who like to party alot or have friends who party alot.

Nabwire, I hope in your cost you cover for damages and costs incurred in cleaning up the mess. but then if guys can afford to party kwani hii "hard times" haiwakuli wao? you might find that they will feast na wabebe take away for savings on their side!

My 2 cents. M-Pesa - avoid having any balance weka Sura ya kazi. Use free toilet @job. If in CBD use 680. Nakumatt anywhere. Sura ya kazi will help you. Dont shout... will save you energy Water: Boil yours Food: Avoid meat. vegetarian diet will pro-long your life at less cost Outing: Restrict to the pub next door. If other drunks start getting friendly, shift base Energy: switch of the fridge. why keep one packet of milk when you can buy it when you want. Shopping: Go alone with a list. If single: Dating is overrated avoid it Traveling: Only if someone is dead or dying Fuel: Go public. walk as much as possible Fitness: No gym. jog, jog, team sport "..I am because we are. "― Ubuntu, Umtu,

Follow the toilet paper's manufacturer recommendation, you should use 1 piece every time poop ie don't skip the perforation.
BBI will solve it :)

Nyangao point noted, I have not tried this nor would I, but if I was a mlevi/partier, I think it would be worth a try coz I have noticed people who party alot rarely care what the costs are as long as they are having a good time. Basi make sure that your apartment has the bare minimum to avoid damage and take away.
LOL GGK, ati dont shout!!
QW wewe ni Kinyonga kweli, si umepost!!! Just remember that its not how much you make, its how much you keep, ati pesa si shida, kwani umefika Billion $$$, I hope huongei about a couple of thousand kshs

Get married and land cheaply whenever wherever. Consider the costs of mpango wa viazi: amarulla, sambuca, java, taxi, nywele, choma, fry and you are not assured. Life is short. Live passionately.

If you find yourself at the chemist don't forget the magic words"na after discount?" Use a price comparison site like Easyshop before making a shopping decision,especially on expensive items it saves you both time and money.

1.Turn off the TV and all the lights to save electricity and tell the kids it's a game of hide-and-seek.
2.Time your visits to 7 friends, each on one day of the week,around dinner time to get free meals the whole week.

more tips:
1.Leave everything in the same place in your house, so you can easily get around at night without turning the lights on.
2.hang the tea bags out to dry and re-use them
3.While going to eat out with a girlfriend, accidentally…., just accidentally, forget your wallet at home

nicesst thread,..... Always use half tomato and half onion when cooking. Drink tea without sugar, tell friends you forgot to stir the tea (sugar is at the base) if they question take cham on fridays and sleep the whole weekend let your girlfriend come in your house, no going to unnecessary places avoid shopping at the local kiosks, they are expensive harvest rain water whenever it rains, its free. Develop a sudden alergy for frothy drinks on weekends

The secrete is to strike a bargain and bargain for everything….. Including flight tickets!!!.
Operator: Thank you for calling Kenya Airways. How may I help you?
Kenyan: Hallo. Germany ni pesa ngapi?
Operator: That will be Ksh 55,000 one-way.
Kenyan: Lakini si hiyo ni bei ya kuongea?
Operator: Am afraid the price is fixed.
Kenyan: Na nikishukia France nitembee hapo pengine?
Operator: Sir, the price for the flight is fixed.
Kenyan: Hata nikasimama?
Operator: That is not allowed on the flight sir.
Kenyan: Haya basi, nitakaa kwa shimo yenye iko katikati ya viti. Hiyo ni pesa ngapi?
Operator: Sir, I said the price for the flight is fixed.
Kenyan: Ai? Wacha nipigie Juma.
Operator: Who is Juma sir.
Kenyan: He is my relative. You see my grandfather had three wives. So Juma is the son to the brother of my sister's cousin from the second wife of the brother of my grandfather. Anafanya kazi huko kwenu. Am sure ataongea na wewe mnibebe sare.
Operator: Am afraid that will not be possible sir.
Kenyan: Haiya. Na wewe ni mgumu? Na mzigo je?
Operator: We allow 25 kgs carry-on luggage per passenger sir.
Kenyan: I have about kilo mia moja.
Operator: We will charge you Ksh 500 per extra kilo.
Kenyan: Si nitajishikia? Ni gunia moja tu. Nitashikia hapo nyuma ya pilot.
Operator: Am afraid only hand luggage is allowed sir.
Kenyan: Jesus! Nyinyi watu mnatunyanyasa. Ninaomba serikali iangalie hii mambo. Ok. Wacha nitalipa hiyo pesa.
Operator: Thank you.
Kenyan: Oh! Just one more thing. Naenda na Jane, mtoto wa sister yangu. Huyo si naweza kumshika tu?
Operator: How old is she sir?
Kenyan: Ni mtoto. She is only sixteen.
Operator: Am afraid that will be an additional ticket sir.
Kenyan: What do you mean another ticket? Mtoto. Lakini si ni half price kwa sababu ni mtoto eh?
Operator: No sir. She will pay the same rate as an adult sir.
Kenyan: Ai? Ksh 110,000. Hiyo ni mingi sana. Kwani ni plot nanunua? Ai? Hapana. Wacha twende na Meli.

Use a price comparison site like Easyshop before making a shopping decision,especially on expensive items it saves you both time and money. I get your idea but having a comparison site with no comparison is inane and to be polite stupid. Dont direct to a site that doesnt have any content. Think through ow you are going to get information of the products before you tell us to compare. Some suggestions talk to a few people and try and get in contact with someone from nakumatt, tuskys, uchumi etc and try and get price lists. This is the most critical step. After getting a method of updating your price list the simple part of creating a database to compare product brands starts making sense and this will work The next hard part is how to monetize the site to make money for you! Please be serious don't put links to a shell!

fuel saving tip-Always fuel your car very early in the morning when the temparatures are low. you see, the fuel pump uses volume(the Litre is a unit of volume) as a measure of how much fuel is pumped out. Fuel will, as all liquids do, expand as temparature increases. Although the expansion coefficient is small, it becomes quite significant if you are filling the tank, so much so that it can cancel out the 4 shilling increase in fuel prices. My Physics teacher would be so proud of me now  It is a curious fact that of all the illusions that beset mankind, none is quite as curious as that tendency to suppose that we are mentally and morally superior to those who differ from us in opinion.
