Skechers End of Season Sale

I was supposed to share this last August but I totally forgot about it. I just remembered it today when I'm cleaning my photo gallery. 

Last July 29, I received a text from Skechers regarding their End of Season Sale. #skechers

“Skechers End of Season Sale is happening on August 1-31! Get 50% off on footwear plus lots of discounts promos to choose from. Enjoy comfort & style with Skechers” 

But I did not bother to go to the store because I have no budget for shopping but I’ve been meaning to buy their Go Walk Shoes for so long. Last August, my husband decided to bring us to Singapore for my birthday celebration. Yey! So few days before the trip we went to SM Southmall.  

We’re supposed to buy luggage but we ended up buying Skechers shoes. #skechershoes Good thing they have a branch in Southmall. 

P3495

So we checked the sale but unfortunately, the one I like is not on sale but I still bought it because I really need comfy shoes for our SG trip and birthday ko naman. lol

P2865 - sale price

I can’t remember the original price of the two shoes but I think we got it for 20-30% discount. 

P2555 - sale price

I bought Skechers shoes last year so this year I bought Skechers shoes again for my son. Birthday gift (thanks to Wowa) din so he waited for almost 2 months pa bago magamit. Hehehe! But I'm happy because I got a discount.

Anyway, we are happy with our Skechers shoes, indeed they are comfortable shoes.

November Sale Alert

Whenever there is a sale alert, we don’t normally go to malls because I find it stressful looking for something to buy. We will just go if we really need to buy something and we want to take advantage the discount kahit 10% off pa yan.

Yesterday, we were supposed to go to Wilcon because we need to buy shelves but unfortunately, the store was closed (November 1) so we just went straight to SM Sta Rosa. 

Whenever I saw Uniqlo store, I always check their stuff because they always have a sale or clearance sale. It is nice to buy clothes at discounted price, right? I bought Heattech Fleece Shirt and Sweater for my two boys because it was on sale. 

Heattech Fleece Shirt P590 to P290, so I bought three available colors. The Heattech Fleece Sweater P790 to P490, so it is really a steal. I did not buy anything for myself at walang nakasale na Heattech for me. Huhuhu! My husband is planning a trip up north this coming holiday so tamang-tama ito para sa cold weather. Lamigin pa naman kami. :) 

I saw Terranova, they have a sale up to 50% off so I also checked the store. While looking at the kid’s clothes, the staff informed me that if I will reach P2000, there is additional 30% discount sa total. Waah! I was supposed to buy jacket only at P695 but because of that discount, dinamihan ko na. Napaaga ng Christmas shopping! Hehehe! 

White longsleeves shirt P495 to P295 
Striped longsleeves shirt P695 to P295 
Gray longsleeves shirt P495 to P295 
Blue longsleeves polo P995 to P595 
Blue Sweater P1295 to P695 

Total: P3975 (original price) 
       P2175 (sale price) 
       P1520 (additional 30% off) 

I bought 5 items and my total is only P1520. Ang mura di ba, pwede din pang gift so check Terranova SM Sta Rosa because they have this promo until November 6, only. I’m not sure if available in all branches but you can check. 

We’re going to buy shelves di ba, so we went to Ace Hardware but my husband did not find anything he likes so we did not buy anything. Nung palabas na kami, I saw bookshelves and may nakalagay na 30% so we verified kung P1299 less 30% pa and the staff said yes. We bought the bookshelves at P909.30, not bad di ba.

Mad about Shoes

We were in SM Sta Rosa last Saturday to do some errands and on our way home, we saw this “Mad about Shoes” beside Ace Hardware. We checked the sale and looked for a good discount. 

We wanted to buy flat shoes for my son since January and we’ve been checking stores every time we visit mall but my son didn’t like the shoes that we’ve seen before. 

Finally, he liked the shoes in Polo Sport Ralph Lauren; this is not the first choice because most of the shoes that he liked were out of size already. Good thing that we were able to get this size. Original price is P2095 and we got it at P1095. 

I also bought a sneakers to replace my Keds which is already two-year-old shoes, overused and need ng magretire. Lol. Original price is P2295 and we got it at P1295.

P1000 discount is not bad at all so if you are looking for shoes, visit SM Sta Rosa. You can buy branded shoes like Skechers, Keds, Sperry, Merrell, Pony and Polo Sport Ralph Lauren up to 70%, promo is from April 2 to 17, 2016.

Christmas Decorations

I went to S&R last Sunday and I was surprised to see the different display of Christmas decorations and ornaments. They start selling Chirstmas stuff already.

We know that Christmas decorations and ornaments are not cheap so I don’t really change my decorations every year. I just buy one or two items every year to add to our collections. I’ve bought some in S&R like my ornaments and Christmas Village.

What Brands are Filipinos Buying Online?

Brands have become an essential consideration in making purchase decisions. Lazada- the Philippines’ One-Stop Shopping and Selling Destination is no stranger in understanding consumer behaviour towards brands specifically in the online retail space. In a study conducted by Lazada on which brands Filipinos buy online, Penshoppe, ASUS, and Cherry Mobile showed strong affinity with online shoppers evidenced by local Google search results as well as search and sales within the Lazada website and mobile app. Camera brand Canon and power tool brand Bosch remains to be popular among consumers aged 55 and above. The rest of the findings are illustrated in the infograph as below. 

Lazada through its Marketplace Platform, works in partnership with the biggest local and international brands to provide Filipinos with a large assortment of products across electronics and lifestyle categories. "The number of consumers looking to buy beauty products online is increasing, so partnering with Lazada seemed to be the best way to expand into the online shopping space,” says Khristine Santos, Customer Development Manager of Belo Essentials. “We regard Lazada as the most trusted e-commerce company in the Philippines and as a consumer brand, consumer trust is very important for us to grow. It allows us to easily track results and we are able to develop a better understanding of our online market,” Santos of Belo Essentials added. 

Mr. William Go, Country Sales Director of Bosch, Inc., the global brand specializing on power tools and home improvement equipment regards Lazada as “the biggest e-commerce and now one of the fastest growing distribution channels of Bosch Power Tools.With its [Lazada’s] wide range of customer reach, attractive promotions, product assortment and availability, it has managed to cater effectively and successfully to the needs and wants of customers all over the country. It is now one of the most trusted online dealers carrying the number one power tool brand globally in Bosch power tools.
