Shopper's Guide To Bargains in Metro Manila

Hmmm....

2006-05-03T10:58:00.000-07:00

Tonight was suppose to be a blah night. I picked up B with my mum, we went to market market in our blah atmosphere.
Went back home 'coz my sister needed the car. Ate dinner at emperors in wilson st., went back home my mom showing us aff. Yeeeee.....

Then rally came by the house to bring me and b to capones, something like you need to see us before I leave ah. Chase also joined us. With this still, I was on a blah state of mind. Not even the partiest pooper can beat me.

As I sat staring at people, looking at them on how they are. What kind of a person would they be. Would the guy who's hyperactive than a 5 year old be ok or just a k.s.p, mybe he's a regular who's friends of the owner or the band. He's still odd.
The all guy band would have been pretty decent, except for the a lot of pitches that were out of tuned. Which would just want you to squirm and laugh your head out. Two african american came in and one actually stood beside our tablel admiring the band. He had this look saying " this is such an awesome band, I Love The Philip Pines". A posey of posers was also there. How would you know if a group is a poser? It's the vibe they give you. Not proud but wanting more of the attention. You dont really feel the heart into what they are.

I still dont like going to places like those. But it is interesting. It's nice to watch people. It would be great if I were just invicible. Watching everyone.

See you guys in three weeks.

Have a great summer vac.

2006-04-27T21:30:00.000-07:00

This has been a most interesting sem. We all had our dramas. From trying to work as team, trying to remain friends, getting over lost things in a lost cost, these are the trials of life. Whether we can handle it or not. Its over. All we can count for is what's ahead.

I'm proud of all you guys, who went through all of this. We did it. And we'll take the next one with determination. And Kick there Asses.

I still hope that some of you would stay. School wouldn't be anything without the one's who add to the drama. Hahahahaha.

I Love My Sony Ericsson W900i

2006-03-21T03:11:00.000-08:00

I got my sony ericsson w900i last December and haven't had any regrets. The w900i is a bit bulky but with a 470mb internal ram how can you complain. The w900i has a 2mega pixel camera at the back but has a lower pixel resolution in front. Its the first 3g phone from Sony Ericsson. One of my favorite part of the phone is the panorama option. Below is a couple of pictures that I took from it recently.

After a Few Month's of Not Posting

2006-03-10T12:10:00.000-08:00

After a few month's of not posting. Quite a few things have happened. The christmas sale came by, not as fast as the end of season sale of Mango last Jan. followed by rockwel's sale including the hot new store Zara. With our current economy right now. Not a lot of people had the extra cash to shell out. You can notice this with the extentions of christmas sales, and that for the first time in my life the traffic is bearable to the point that when I pass by mega mall at 1am, there was no traffic. No people standing in line staying or standing on the other side of the street, hands full of shopping bags hoping to get a cab. Even with the mall extention hours. Nobody was there. It just didn't feel like christmas. But who am I to say.

The new year came lousy as it usually is. Manila hotel wasn't even able to provide a proper countdown band. Hahaha.
But the night life at Greenbelt is unbelievable. The place was crowded by 1am and jam packed by 2.

The end of season sale wasn't that interesting 'til the end of Jan to Feb, the prices went down, thirty percent off on make-up's that never had a discount that big came. The vat was taking a toll on everyone. We had to count how much the item is and how much we actually are spending. A 12% hike was increased to all food and shopping establishment. Which ment that were no longer cheaper than Singapore nor we can say that "our prices are the same as the U.S" ( as far as cosmetics and clothing go ).

So, as for the year. We can expect a lot of sales and alot of increase, on prices that is.

Happy Shopping!

Tindahan Ilog

Marikina Riverbanks is holding there Christmas Tiange.
You can find shoes ranging from P50 (slippers) - P600 (Loft Shoes). The shoes are a steal and are of good quality. unfortunately, there's no available size for me. Which is a size 10.

I found a store while going around the banks. I'm happy to present.

JAA'S BAG MANUFACTURING
Located beside Sanktuaryo, the store manufactures for brands like secosan. The bags are so cheap and when I say cheap, cheaper than Divisoria. It's a must see store.

The White Bag set me back P200, Vanity Bags on both sides P150, Shoes P280.( Bags from Jaa's)

Loft can be found at all SM department stores. But if you want one for a good price to the tiange at marikina riverbanks and get a pair like these for P600.

Fridge Txt Msg Poetry

2005-10-20T00:59:00.000-07:00

Today Pao and I went to the mall. I passed by National Bookstore to check if there were any new books on the sale section. And behold, Fridge Poetry Txt Msg version for only P100. It's very interesting since its an american published product. The short text messages are very different.
For example: BRAK = BREAK, AFAIK = As Far As I Know.

Below is a short poetry which is just composed of words that I randomly selected.
It may sound good or bad.
Either way you have to guess what the words mean to complete the poetry.
You already have an example above use it well. =9
Have Fun!

Updates on Sales

2005-10-19T23:50:00.000-07:00

Ok it has been almost a week of just sales.
The weekend sale bash was great but the weekday is something else.
If you've read my previous posts.
This week the week of the 17th of October to date has also been a sale week.
So this is an update on the Recent two sales that I've been to.

The Rustan's Essences Three Day Sale.

Today was the start of the rustans three day sale. By the time I arrived at the sale (around 3pm) The place was already full packed with eager shoppers trying to get there hands on the cheapest and best stuff that was on sale.

What products are on sale? Well, we have Laura Mercier ( a personal favorite of mine ), Estee Lauder, Clarins, Dior, Channel, Awake, Phyto, Lee Stafford, Fasio, Michael Kors, Orly, Essee and so much more that I can't remember them anymore. But you get my point. These are on 30 percent off. From perfumes to make-up, lotions to hair products. They are all on 30 percent off.
I forgot, for those who are fans of movie the make-up brand and alchemy. Bought products are on 50 percent off. I tried looking through the movie and alchemy section, but there were to many people to cut through.

Main point, those who have some extra money. Come to this sale if your into any of the products. It won't get better than this. ( I pray that it would =p ) But so far, it won't.
So, drop by the sale is up to Friday the 21st.

*Be careful with the craze, you might get carried away on pulling stuff of the shelves.
*Shop moderately ( huh! wish I could follow my own advice )

Laura Mercier Travel Brush Set with 7 brushes. From left to right (cheek colour brush, eye crease brush, double ended brow brush, lip colour brush,secret camouflage brush, flat eye liner brush and eye colour brush). Next to it is the Michael Kors Leg Shine. http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P20355
Please check out the link for more information on Michael Kors Leg Shine.
* Laura Mercier Travel Brush Set ( before 30% discount ) at P5750 and Michael Kors Leg Shine at P1,700

Bargain find for the day.
From left to right. Lee Stafford Poker Straight "Glistening Straightening Balm" P395, Andrea mod lash starter kit P145, Cliven Baby Shampoo and Protective Cream P245 and Lee Stafford Poker Straight " Dehumidifier" P395. All before the 3o percent off discount.

I personally have used Lee Stafford Powder Wax hair product and love it. It's not sticky and it doesn't look to heavy on your hair unlike other products and its cheaper too. I just tried out the dehumidifier and it works pretty well with your hair it basically does what it says to "help your beautiful hair poker straight, when the humid air wants it to frizz".

The Cliven Baby Shampoo and Protective Cream at P245 without the discount is already cheap. Mother's need I say more.

The Y3/ Paul Smith Sale
As you can see on the picture above. A pair of shoes at Paul Smith's would set you back P3,700.
Which is okay. If you are into shoes or Paul Smith, this is a steal. A pair of shoes like these would cost around P13,000. The sale had a few racks of clothes to sections for men and women and some of the shoes are to die for. If I only had the extra cash. The bag! I want the bag. But at P12,000 on sale already. I'll just hang around the person who buys it. hehehehe.

This is going to be a one day sale only.

Friday, Start of The Weekend Sale.

2005-10-15T01:30:00.000-07:00

It's Friday, start of the weekend sale. Robinsons malls, SM malls and Glorietta are all having a weekend sale. And today Friday is mega madness day. Where all the malls are open 'till midnight and everyone is looking for something to spend there hard earned cash on.

Besides the mall wide sales, there's the powerbooks warehouse sale, chocolate clothing store sale, and the best for the day is the Different Bookstore Super Sale ( That's what I call it ).

I started out my day by skipping school. (Sorry, Sir! hehe =) )

Powerbooks "Warehouse Sale"

I went straight to the Powerbooks "Warehouse Sale" in pioneer which was terrible. You're better off going to a National Bookstore Bargain Books section than going to the "warehouse sale". It was typical of powerbooks mall sales with a surprisingly small selection, which wasn't even enticing to browse through.

Next, we went to the Chocolate Clothing Store Delicious Sale. The clothes aren't that bad. Fell in love with a Summer Tube Dress and the Nuxe Line ( a french made cosmetics brand for the face and body ) is at 49 percent off plus 10 percent off when you charge it to your BDO credit cards. Dang.

Chocolate Clothing Store Most Delicious Sale

SM Mega Mall "Mega Sale"

Then, we went to Mega Madness at SM Megamall where they were holding the San Mig Octoberfest.

For those who are looking for linens and comforters there at 50 percent off at the SM Department Store ( Selected Items Only of course ). The PC section on building B is also on sale on some products. Nine West is up to 65 percent off on shoes plus 5 percent off if paid in cash.

The Different Bookstore "Super Sale"

Then, we went to Eastwood City where they had the Different Bookstore "Super Sale" 50-70 percent off from fiction to philosophy titles. Thank you so much. finally, a decent book sale.

*Thanks to Paolo for editing the page.
