S&R Members Treat September 2016

I'm a bit excited about this snr members treat since this is my first time to join.
It is a 3day sale, according to ads they offer up to 50% discounts, buy1 take1 and a lot more!!

So here we go, after office hour on Sept29 friday, we are heading to snr Shaw and whoa! Ang pila abot hanggang gate! I didn't expect this, I thought during this time paubos na mga tao kasi almost 6PM na yun. So we started to line up at 5:40pm and we get in at around 7:30pm.

I really expect for the big bang! But to my dismay, yung mga buy1 take1 na mga items like tressemme conditioner, ubos na! Wala ng stock! Marami naman mga buy1 take1 na ibang items kaso yung mga pang gift na body wash & lotion. Meron din cranberry juice, yung mga imported items na hindi mo naman magagamit or wala sa list mo. Tiningnan ko din yung tide, same price lang last week P789 yung 10kilos. Ang ariel powder P949 9kilos. Downy 4liters same price pa rin last week which P565. Pero may good deal din naman like Zip Dishwashing, it has P150 discount, from P379 naging P229 na lang so bumili ako ng tatlo. Hehe! Hoarding na to!

Ito pa, bumalik ulit kami on the 3rd day oct2, nagbabakasakali na konti na lng tao and marami na stock pagmorning. Yung pagdating namin block buster pa rin ang pila. Hahaha! Pumila kami ng 8:45 nakapasok kami ng 9:50am, hindi na kami kumuha ng cart kasi pila ulit. So pagdating namin sa loob, wala na masyadong mga buy1 take1 na basic commodities. Inikot namin ni hubby ang loob, grabe ang haba ng pila sa cashier! So umuwi na lng kami with empty handed at dumiretso sa AFP Commissary. Buti pa dun guaranteed low prices kasi walang tax. Hahaha!

All I can say is, don't expect too much!! K bye!

Albay Tour 3D2N DIY Itinerary with 2kids

Since it's a long weekend, we plan to visit Legazpi, Albay.
After office hours on a friday night, we go to Cubao Terminal with my husband & our 2 kids ( 4yrs old & 1 yr old). There are no available bus since it's a long weekend so we opted to choose Amihan Executive Bus with CR, fare cost Php950 each and our kids are free of charge. Travel time is 12hours. Tip: Book your ticket 1week before you travel.

DAY 1:
10:00 AM - We arrive at Legaspi City, Albay. Since we don't have any reservation in the hotel, we ride a tricycle to find one. We inquire at least 4 apartelles but it's too pricey. Luckily, on our 5th inquire, may nakuha na din.
10:30 AM - We check-in at Tanchuling Hotel. We choose this hotel since this is the only available and it's cheaper. Standard room is only Php850. The room is big and it's enough for us.
1:00 PM - 5:00 PM - We ride a jeepney loop1 heading to Albay Park & Wildlife fare is P9 only. Entrance for Park is P20 adult & P10 kids. The park is clean, there are dinosaurs that move and have sounds (though replica but if your a kid, you'll be amazed). There are also wild animals like tiger, wild pig, crocodile, birds, etc. My son ride a bicycle for P35/hour.




After park, we just walk going to Lignon Hill. It is just near at the park. Since i babywear my 1 year old daughter, i double my energy. Hehe! At the entrance of Lignon Hill, the guard offer us a ATV experience for only 1,500 for the 4 of us. So we glab it. He accompany us to the office & have short briefing/guidelines for the ride. And whoah!! The most awaited moment!
After ATV, we ride a 4x4 pick-up to go at the peak of Lignon Hill. The view is fantastic and breath taking! So after an hour of site seeing, we call it a day.


DAY 2:
Ride a jeepney loop2 going to Daraga Church, fare is P8. After visiting the old church, we plan to ride a jeepney going to Cagsawa but we don't have enough time to wait so we opted to ride a tricycle P50 for the 4 of us.

Cagsawa Ruins entrance fee is P10 for adult & kids. While we are busy taking pictures, Christian (tour guide) offer us his services, and it's a good deal actually. For P800, we can go to the 3 destination. We ride 2 motorcycles.

Sumlang Lake - Entrance fee is P10. Balsa is P25/adult & kids are free.

Hoyop-hoyopan Cave - Entrance with tour guide is P300.

Quitinday Greenhills - Entrance is P25 for adult.

Embarcadero de Legaspi


DAY 3:
We ride a tricycle going to Legazpi Boulevard, fare is P40. Since it's still 7:00 AM, there are people who do exercise & jogging. In here, you can see the Sleeping Lion (an island that looks like a lion on his belly).
After sight seeing, again we ride a tricycle going to Jollibee for breakfast. After we eat, we decided to go to Kawa-kawa Hill (a hill without a top!). We ride a jeepney going to Ligao, fare is P80. When we get off, we ride again a tricycle fare is P8 going to Kawa-kawa Hill.

Ito na, start na ng calvario. It's so tiring especially that I carry my 20months old daughter. But when you see the view at the top, it's all worth it.


After stisfying our eyes for the magistic view, we decided to go home & have our lunch. We ride a aircon bus going to Legazpi, fare is P80. We check-out in the hotel at 1:00 PM and have lunch at Gaisano Pacific.
We ride DLTB bus going to Manila at 3:00 PM. Fare is 810.
