It's only a couple of hours till Black Friday in Nigeria kicks off (Konga's yakata sales start 6am on Thursday). As we prime ourselves for the avalanche of awoof goods, while trying to avoid 'Black Friday rapture' (when someone else grabs the goods before you), here are some steps you can follow to ensure you hit it big.

Close early from work before the traffic demons are let loose

If you can't close early, better sleep at the office.

Secure fuel for your generator

The fear of Black Friday rapture is the beginning of wisdom. You also don't want those servers 'crashing' on you.

At exactly 5:59 am, open your favourite online store's website

And attack the F5 key continuously till you find what you're looking

Dazall. Goodluck, not Jonathan. Just remember that awoof is not for everybody.

Disclaimer: If you followed all the above steps and still experienced 'Black Friday rapture', you didn't do it right. We take no responsibility for your screw up. You better start binding and casting the people in your village.

Only real prayer warriors can solve this one...
