Ok,
In order to get through my NYSC orientation camp in one piece, I figured I need "white goods". I have called them white goods and it is obvious why that is. See photo of the white goods after the cut.
In addition to the khaki uniform handed out, you get given the white goods too and shoes however I have come to realise (from friends, websites, etc). I have learnt that sometimes the items you are given are hardly your size and you just have to take what you are given and try to batter with other people to exchange for the correct sizes.
My plan is to buy a pair of each white goods and the "bum bag" or "fanny pack" (as our American cousins will call it. I will buy 2 or 3 as I dont intend to spend everyday washing clothes. At least washing once a week should be ok. I would not want to buy Louis Vuitton ones though as they are likely to get very very dirty quickly with the heat and mud and everything. So my advise is if you can get them really cheap...Do!
I'm sure I can get them very cheap at those "cheap" stores in the UK. Not naming any names joor...Afterall they aint paying me to endorse them...(Yes, Already thinking like a 9ja business head...do you blame me?) Hehehe!

Update on white goods
Well, managed to get like 3 white tops in a pack for like £5, bought 3 white shorts costing maybe £20 altogether and 2 pairs of white canvas shoes for less than £10, a bum bag...can't remember the price. Bargain!!! If I don't have use for all of them, I'll sell them in camp (need to start thinking of ways to make money o) but it never hurts to have more than you will actually need.
Will get the rest (like pillowcases, bed sheets, etc) from here (naija) cos you wouldn't want to lie in someone else's cooties now, would you?
