For those who love to feel what they are buying, visiting local markets is a good idea. There are quite a few of them in Lagos. One exciting thing about visiting a local market is the bargaining advantage it offers.
Balogun Market is one of the popular markets in Lagos for its variety of options. The best place to get your Eid outfit here for a competitive price is the Idumota Mosque—it’s the hub for Islamic items. Many vendors here sell the same thing, hence the competition.
Oshodi: If you’re good at bargaining prices, you can walk away with a gorgeous abaya for less than 50k.
Local Islamic Stores: Many stores, especially around mosques, sell quality abayas at fair prices. An example of this is the Moshalashi Alahaja in Agege. You can get your abayas here at a reasonable price.
The smartest way to save money this season and still rock a quality abaya? Buy in bulk! Hear me out; if your sisters, cousins, friends, neighbors, or even colleagues need abayas, team up and buy from a wholesaler. Bulk orders come with discounts, and when you split the cost, everyone wins. Genius, right?
