How I’ve Been Saving Big on Data for Over 4 Years
Even before I started my online business, I found a smart way to manage my data expenses—and it’s been a game changer!
Here’s my strategy:
I subscribe to MTN’s 1TB yearly plan for ₦100k, but I never bear the cost alone. I always find at least one partner to split it with, bringing my share down to ₦50k (or even less, depending on how many people join in).
From there, I ensure my partner gets 5GB daily for 100 days, which means we both get 500GB each. Since I monitor my usage and keep it under 40GB per month, this data lasts me the entire year. That means I’m only spending ₦4,500 per month—way cheaper than the standard ₦10k monthly plan that can disappear in a week!
Want to save even more? Try this:
Get 3 people to contribute ₦25k each, then distribute 750GB among them over 150 days. This way, everyone enjoys massive savings!
