Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all awesome Daddy around the world!

We celebrated Father's Day last Sunday at SM Mall of Asia and ate at Burger King and the highlight of this was when we went to Swensen's, I won a gift certificate from Instagram! Yay! So timing for this celebration!

This is the Hurricane Ice Cream! We didn't finish this 5 scoop ice cream but it was so delicious! It's not too sweet. I think this is good for 3-5 person already. I forgot how much it cost but I think it's around 400 pesos, but we got this for free! Weee!

We had so much fun eating here and every bite is so worth it! 

The Amazing Spiderman 2

Okay, this is not a review of the movie The Amazing Spiderman 2. I want to share with you my experience when I won 2 tickets to the block screening of The Amazing Spiderman 2 from Magnavision Home Video.

I was actually not expecting that I'd won because there were a lot of followers who also wanted the free tickets. My sister-in-law just tagged me on it and I just commented that I also want to have free tickets. It was also my sister-in-law who saw my name as the lucky winner of the 2 free tickets from Magnavision Home Video. This was an event of AXN for the movie and I was just so happy that i won two tickets for this event. By the way, this is my first time to win movie tickets, so you could just imagine my happiness here :)

I went to this event with my best friend and since we are both not familiar with Makati and where Greenbelt is (don't laugh! haha) we planned to ride a cab instead but to our surprise, the day we went there was payday and it was the opening of Spiderman 2 and the next day was a holiday so you could expect everyone was out and enjoying their hard earned money and taking all the cabs! We took a bus ride instead, and when we got to Ayala, we walked to SM and asked the guards how to go to Greenbelt 5 where we need to pick up the tickets. We arrived there 15 minutes before 9 o'clock but Astrovision was already closed! I signaled the lady inside that I will be claiming my tickets so she let me in and there were also some people who were claiming their tickets. :)

So after we got the tickets, we had dinner and headed to Greenbelt cinemas. We were again surprised on how long the line was! All have their complimentary tickets from Ayosdito.ph, some from Globe and from BPI. It was a long line but it was worth it because we get to have a photo with Spiderman! Haha.

Okay, I am not a fan of Spiderman but seeing him there roaming around and taking photos with just everybody, I just had the urge to have a photo taken with him too. :)

This was before we enter the cinema. It was so nice of the photographer to take a photo from my camera before we enter the cinema.

Here's what we got from the movie. I really love getting free stuff! Upon entering, they gave us a bottle of water and a slice of Papa John's pizza and a shirt from Papa John's too. They had raffle inside too for selected participants and said that if you wear the shirt on a Thursday and you decide to eat at Papa John's, the person who is wearing the shirt will get 50% off on his/her personal consumption. However, the size of the shirt is large, for kids. It would not fit me and my best friend. Haha. We also got free photo souvenir when we went out when the movie was done. 

Thank you so much Magnavision Home Video for picking me to win The Amazing Spiderman 2 tickets, because of this I get to bond with my best friend. We haven't done that for such a long time! Thank you so much for the blessing and we had so much fun watching the movie!

Likiriki Store Giveaway!

Have you noticed that a lot of people, companies, shops and even blogs are giving away free stuff and all you have to do is like and share their photos? Well, my SIL who happens to be a very lucky person who always wins online especially in Facebook has influenced me to join to. :) She started tagging me with the contests and promos and giveaways and I got curious and tried following instructions on how to win and all.

One day, I received an personal message on my Facebook and told me I was one of the winners of their 1st year giveaway promo! I won a toy from Likiriki Store and this was the first time I ever won! Haha. And take note, this toy costs 600 pesos on their shop! I was just so overwhelmed, but there is one problem: my daughter can't play this because this is for boys, and I don't know who to give it to because it is dangerous for little ones because of the tiny balls like pellets inside. 

So I decided to give it to one of my inaanak who I am sure would love this! Thanks to Likiriki store for my first time to win on Facebook. I actually won another prize but I will post those when I have my prize. :)

I so love free stuff! :)

Christmas Shopping Online

I know this is a very late post but I want to share with you where I bought most of my gifts last Christmas. Since they say that Christmas is enjoyed most by kids, I didn't spend much on giving gifts to grown ups except for my husband of course. Haha. I did online shopping of clothes for my daughter and some of my inaanak. I have a lot of inaanak na pala and I lost contact with some of them.

Anyway, I seldom give toys to kids on birthdays, christening or Christmas. I make sure that I give something that they can use like clothes. Now, I was browsing through Instagram -- let me remind you, I am purchasing most of my stuff here as well and I am getting addicted to this, I came across this seller @rileyraye_mustloved who sells cute ternos for kids. (Check out her page) This seller is so nice and we get along very well. I did a last minute shopping, I thin ordered a week before Christmas and I had to wait for some orders that she need to buy for me. This is what I bought from her (first batch).

All of these clothes only cost me P1390.00 and she gave me free shipping! She even gave my daughter a free sando and hair clip which my daughter really loved wearing. What a great deal, isn't it? Yay!

And then, since I became a fan of the clothes she's selling, I ordered again this week. She had a clearance sale and dropped prices on most of the items which I grabbed hurriedly! Haha. Here it is. I just got this yesterday.

As always the clothes were really nice like the first time I ordered from her. I got the 3 pieces of sando for 100 pesos, the stripe dress also for 100 pesos, stripes green terno sando for me and Amber also for 100 pesos and a sando set (not in the photo) for 85 pesos. She gave me freebies again, this time 2 hair clips. I am super happy. :)

You may check out her IG profile for clothes she's selling, you might want to order too! Haha. She's became a friend of mine already because we've been vibing almost everyday. Haha. Check her out @rileyraye_mustloved.I will definitely buy more from her because I saw another seller who sells the same clothes for kids but the price is almost twice the price of what she's selling. I'm with the right seller, thank God. Really good buy!

The Dress is Here!

Hey everybody!

I just want to share with you the photos of the dresses I won on Instagram (see my previous post about it) and I am so happy with the dresses that arrived today.

My daughter was so happy to see the pink tutu. It was her dream to have one. Haha. And the purple clips you see on her hair was a freebie from the seller as well. Imagine, free na yung damit, may freebie pa ulit? Yay!

When I tried the dresses on to my daughter, I was a bit sad kasi hindi kasya ang purple dress. It was small for her and I was sad because the dress is really nice, elegant ang dating talaga. However, me and my daughter decided to just give it to her cousin Agnes who's more than a year old because I think this will fit her. Christmas gift nalang namen sa kanya. :)

I am still in awe for winning this super nice dresses. I really recommend their dresses because of good quality. You can follow her IG account, @pinkkishboutique so you can check out other nice dresses and jegging sets for you toddlers.

Thank you @pinkkishboutique! May pamasko na ang daughter ko. Off to see some shoes naman for Christmas! :)

First Time to Win on Instagram!

I just want to share with you the good news I received last night while I was working my ass off.

As you all know or probably not, I am so into Instagram nowadays. I buy clothes here for me and daughter. There's this one online store where I bought my daughter's tutu dress and they had a "Race to 2k followers" contest on Instagram. I think I was on the first 50 people who reposted the photo and I was actually not hoping to win on it. 

Last night, I saw a photo posted by the seller that they already reached 2k followers and they will be selecting the lucky winners. There will be two winners and prizes are the cutest and prettiest dresses she is selling. One gets to have 50% on the dress and the one gets 2 dresses of their choice and the winner would just need to shoulder the shipping fee. Guess what I got?

I was so kilig when I received a vibe message from the seller. How sweet of her to message me and told me to check out her video and that I won! Woohoo! Until now, I can't help but be excited because I get to choose any 2 dresses I want for Amber. And since I won, the seller allowed me to choose even the most expensive dress on her shop! Yay! So I did. I was a bit hesitant at first but then gave up in the end. Haha. I hope to get the dresses this weekend. 

I am so happy because Amber will have her Christmas and New Year dress all free from this shop! I am so thrilled with this because this is the first ever contest I joined that I actually won! Hahaha. Thank you Pinkkishboutique!

Follow her on Instagram and I'm sure you will love the dresses she's selling! Super gaganda talaga!

Pre-loved Clothing and Accessories

I am beginning to get addicted to pre-loved clothes and accessories! They may not be brand new, they were worn once or twice, some were even never worn and sell it for a cheaper and affordable price!

For a "kuripot" mom like me, I would not spend 500 pesos on clothes because I find it so expensive. Yes, that's true. So when I learned about these pre-loved apparel sellers, I tried them and I'm getting addicted to them.

I've got my "suki" now. If you have Instagram, check out @posh_vanity and @dashindivashop because that's where I buy all the time. I personally know them so I know that they are legit sellers and the clothes they are selling are almost brand new and in good condition.

 This is my first attempt to buy preloved on Instagram. I bought this from @muralangpramis at Instagram. White shirt was for 30 pesos, gray top is 30 pesos and the the pink skirt is for 60 pesos. These 3 only cost me 120 pesos and an additional 60 pesos for the shipping fee.

This is my second attempt. I bought this also on Instagram from @thefifties_ph. Both apparel cost 50 pesos and shipping fee of 90 pesos.

The yellow banana top I wore on this photo was bought from one of my friend's shop @dashindivashop for only 50 pesos! Does the shorts look familiar? That's the 50 pesos short I ordered above. 

I bought more preloved clothes but haven't had a chance to take a photo of those but surely, I love them all. I love I can have fashionable clothes and get them for a lower and cheaper price! 

So I therefore conclude that it's not about the brand of clothes you buy but it's about the way you handle yourself when you buy affordable yet good clothes. I get to save for buying these affordable clothes plus I occasionally get freebies! This is what I call life. Buying nice clothes at a very affordable price.

I will be posting the next preloved clothes I will buy so I can show you how this thing is so addicting! :)
