Netizens' reactions
Here are some of the reactions:
@godfrey_augo said:
"Lucky you, you went to Dusit. Last weekend I took one to @blackpearl Kisumu main bar, One Amarula cost KSh 4000 and I was only drinking Delmonte, I almost fainted."
@omwambaKE commented:
"Stay strong champ! Never repeat such a mistake again."
@njonjo_ndehi said:
"During my 20s I'd cancel orders and walk away. Now I have three debt-free houses in Nairobi."
@NimoRamona asked:
"Did you not assess Dusit beforehand? If you knew it would damage your wallet, why were you taking her there?"
@LemmyGunga commented:
"KSh 19,600? I would not have looked at the bill twice. I would have just asked for a mop and bucket to start cleaning."
