Starmill's Outlet Mall @ San Fernando, Pampanga

Christmas is nearing and I know most of us would prefer an early shopping to avoid crowded malls and long cashier line ups. But of course this is possible for those who will receive their 13th month and bonus earlier.

There’s one place I heard from the news where you can buy branded clothes, shoes, accessories and lot more at prices cheaper than the malls for about 50%. Right after San Fernando Exit in Pampanga is this STARMILL’S OUTLET MALL. Never been here yet but I intended to bring my family here to check out the stuff. Prices are really low for a branded piece. Watch the news video here.

Smart holiday spending tips

Christmas is nearing and we already have some advance planning for the season’s needs. Part of that planning is buying presence to our love ones. As we all know Christmas is a spending season for people from all walks of life.

Below are some shopping tips to guide you. Remember we can celebrate Christmas without going over budget.

Plan ahead - As early as possible, list down people you want to give gifts to. Wait for mall-wide sales, inventory sales, closing-out sales, or even calamity sales throughout the year. Definitely, prices will be lower and you can start buying gifts in increments - without having to spend large amounts in one go.

Shop early - If you have a shopping list ready, try going at early hours in the day when malls or stores open. This way, you won't feel harassed when looking for gifts and if you shop early enough in the season, you won't have to compete with other buyers for limited items or stocks.

Go bargain hunting - It is fun to shop in bargain hotspots like Divisoria in Manila, the Dapitan Arcade in Quezon City, or the Green Hills "tiangge" in San Juan. You can find a lot of gift items or decorations - and haggle with the stall keepers when you buy. This means you can stick to your budget.

Look for "UK" goods - These are not imports from London, but "ukay-ukay" finds. Some of them, like vintage bags or clothes, can be jazzed up with newer items to give gifts that homemade touch. Never underestimate the value of making homemade gifts when your budget gets tight.

Recycle gifts - Don't know what to do with items you got in previous Christmases but have never used? Try re-wrapping them and giving them as gifts to people whom you think would make good use of them. Make sure you don't give it back to the source!

Want to give food as gifts? - Try homemade rather than store-bought. Homemade delicacies will be appreciated more than store-bought food and will cost you much less.

Buy in bulk - If you have a lot of people on your Christmas shopping list, and you aren't certain about what they like, consider buying items in bulk. You can purchase multiple sets of gifts like t-shirts, candles, or foodstuffs. These types of gifts are ideal if you have co-workers, employees, or sets of acquaintances. Sometimes, stores also offer discounts for buyers who buy wholesale or many items at once.

Be pragmatic and strike out names - It may sound mean-spirited but you don't really have to buy for every person around you. Sometimes you really need to shorten your Christmas shopping list to make it more manageable especially when you have a limited budget.

Clustering - Also, try to cluster the people on your Christmas list. Instead of buying for every co-worker, why not give them just one large gift - like a cake? Or instead of buying for every aunt or uncle, why not give them gifts as a couple?

No-gift season? - Make an agreement with your family members that no one should spend more than a certain amount for gifts (setting a price cap for gifts). You can even go the charitable route: instead of giving each other gifts, why not send much-needed "presents" (food, clothing, toys) to charitable organizations?

Christmas decors @ Dapitan Arcade

Christmas is nearing and Filipinos, no matter what happens, will surely find ways to feel and celebrate it. One very common tradition is the Christmas décor we put on our homes. I do understand that these items are bit expensive in malls especially on some classy stores. But in Manila there is a place where you can shop for Christmas decors at prices that suits your budget.

The Dapitan Arcade (Kanlaon St. corner Dapitan St.) in Sta. Mesa Heights, Quezon City is a place where you can find stuff for your house, season items and not. It is a great place for Christmas shoppers because it is not crowded, wide selection of good stuff and bargain prices.

New York Times recognized Zenni Optical

Seeing Straight Without Breaking Bank is what Zenni Optical can offer to its valued customers at this point of global financial crisis. Their online store offers Prescription eyeglasses for only $8! It is such a deal that comes with stylish frames and lenses plus other freebies.

Why Zenni Optical in the New York Times?! I guess because they recognize the quality and affordability of its products being offered worldwide. It offers a practical option to the buying public that despite the economic crisis there are still means to satisfy their needs without spending much or getting out of budget.

Boots and shoes for President Barack Obama

Although the coverage for the inauguration of the president elect and now President Barack Obama fell on a midnight here in the Philippines, I can’t help but got excited too like those millions of Americans who witnessed the big day. Thru the live coverage of FOX News, I was able to watch it and felt happy for the Americans that despite the global financial meltdown their optimism is still there. A lot of things to be done and resolve and time is of uncertainty but as he said “Begin the work of remaking America.” Like any inaugural address, his contains promises towards recovery and prosperity and I guess for the Americans those are something to look forward too.

As the new president of the most powerful country in the world, President Obama will be facing deep and tough jobs to meet all his promises. But apart from it the president must always look and dress at his best. Maybe his fashion stylist could consider Thorogood shoes for his daily office use or maybe a Boot like the Thorogood 10” Wildland Fire Boot with removable zipper for his casual wear because it is flame and cut-resisting leather perfect to protect the feet of the president.

No matter how President Obama will face the challenges of his position it is still better for him to look at his best at all times as it adds a positive outlook for those people looking up to him. Goodluck!!!

Family @ Toy Kingdom & Osh Kosh

My kids’ Christmas parties will coincide on one date, December 19. Both of them will have their respective exchange gifts so we decided to go to mall and buy their presence. One of the places where we go to buy gifts for kids is Toy Kingdom. It is kind of easy to choose among lots of toys out there. The store offers free gift wrapping for every gift you buy regardless of the price so we made all the gifts wrapped up.

Aside from toys, we bought their party clothing at Osh Kosh. There are quite customers in the store as compared buying inside the SM Department Store where you need to line up in the cashier after you pick your things especially on weekends. Christmas is nearing so better yet go to malls on weekdays for a fewer mallers, LOL.

10th wedding anniversary

Last October 24, hubby and I celebrated our 10^th wedding anniversary. The family went into the mall on October 26 (Sunday) for some shopping spree, strolling and had dinner at Burgoo for the post celebration. We went at SM Marikina, the newest SM branch. The department store, as well as the independent stores, already has their own offerings on discounts and sales for the coming Christmas. If you are a credit card holder, for a minimum purchase of P5,000 (single receipt) you can have it charge under your SIP for six months at zero interest. Others give freebies and discount coupons.

At Burgoo, we ordered for shrimps and ribs platter, special supreme nachos and fettuccini carbonara. The food was great except the nacho’s beef toppings. It was quite few and dry as compared to the toppings of Don Henrico’s nachos, really superb.

Family's Day Out

As a treat to our kids for doing great at school, the family went to SM Marikina. It is a newly constructed branch of SM just nearby on some of the malls in Marikina City like Riverbanks, Robinson’s East and Sta. Lucia.

Hubby is looking for an air bed so we decided to check the mall floor by floor. We found on the 1^st floor a stall giving out free computer games CDs if you register with them. Hubby liked the games so we registered for 3 accounts and we got 3 games. Next we did was to scout for that air bed. Luckily, on the next floor we found it on Ace Hardware. We bought it on sale, less 50%, with free umbrella and mug. When done with it we decided to go to Sta. Lucia Mall to look for my computer chair. It is just a nearby mall, less than 15 minutes. We had our lunch first after the arrival at The French Baker. Yummy!!! We ordered for Fettuccini Carbonara, Burger Steak and Hickory Beef. After eating, we immediately look for the chair but hubby didn’t like the available units. We went home empty handed but on our way home we saw this furniture store with a display of computer chair. Hubby bought the leather covered chair for P1,500.

On our way home, I fell asleep and hubby just woke me when we reached home. Kind of tired but I know the kids are happy coz they like malls.

Sony SCPH-90006 CB

My kids now have reason to study harder and be excited on weekends. Why??? Their long wait is over and their most requested Sony Play Station 2 is here. I am quite skeptical about on purchasing this game stuff on the thought that it might lessen their drive to study harder but mommy was wronged. It’s the other way around. It is easy now for hubby and me to encourage them to study and in exchange we will allow them to play on weekends. Well I guess most of us parents who have kids aged 4 and 8 do this kind of approach to make everything easy and peaceful, LOL.

I never played with this stuff before so hubby had me tried it. I played the Crash and Zombie Hunter games and it was fun. It is great for family to spend time with each other with fun and excitement. But as for mommy, still nothing can beat the goodness of my beloved PC. You know already why…. :-}

Electric motor scooters from Absofabscooters.com

It was a year ago when we bought a battery operated ride on toy for our kids, 1 boy and 1 girl. At first, both of them enjoy the stuff especially my boy. Later on my girl told me that she wanted a scooter of her own because she finds the stuff very boyish and that her brother refused her using the car most of the time. So hubby and I decided to grant her request as her prize for being recognized with high honors during her Grade 1 Level Recognition Day.

Mommy and daughter scouted the net and we came across Absofabscooters.com in our search and my daughter really had a great time browsing the site. If you are looking for the best quality Electric Motor Scooter for yourself or your loved ones then this site is a must see for you. They not only have products for kids but adults as well. Among their wide selection of scooters to choose from at a very affordable price I’m pretty sure you will find one that suits your needs, preferences and budget. My daughter was very happy seeing the models of electric scooters especially the X-600 model. Well can’t blame her because I think that scooter is really perfect for her age aside from the fact that it really has great features that will ensure the fun and safety of its driver.

We have relatives living in New York but Hong Kong is much nearer to us so we will just make some calculations where to buy it best. So if you are on the look too for Electric Motor Scooter with the best quality and yet at a very low price check them out at Absofabscooters.com and surely you’ll find one for yourself.
