Bed Linens on Sale!

By , December 3, 2011 9:50 pm

Last Wednesday, me and 2 other ladies went to SM Mall in Cagayan de Oro to buy giveaways for the workers during the Thanksgiving/Christmas program on the 11th.  Sale was everywhere inside that mall.  We went to almost all nooks in the department store checking out the right items for everyone.  That then made me discover the bed linen sale in one of the shops.

Everybody loves sale!  Everybody loves to grab sale deals because it cannot be denied that it will save you an ample amount especially if  you will order in bulk.  Especially the buy-one-take-on items, they are really wallet friendly to budget moms.    I am one of the budget moms who spent time browsing sale items online.  But when the mailing fee is much more than the cost of the item, then I cancel online shopping.  I just then wait for the time when I can go to the outlet in the mall and inquire if their clearance items are now up for grabs.

$20 saved in a sale item is already $20.  That is already money and none will give me that in the mall anytime I go shopping.  So let’s grab the bed linens of your choice now at White Company.

I Love Shoes!

By , December 3, 2011 9:40 pm

I love shoes that if I can have at least 1 new pair every week or every other week I will do so.  I love all types, flat, pumps, heels, casual, and sporty.  Even boots!  But boots can’t be worn here so I buy those which I can use at work or after work activities.

I brought an extra pair in my two days trip to Manila.  Just for two days I had 2 shoes.  One is flat and the other one is easyspirit walking shoes. I did not regret wearing the bulky shoes because it helped me survived the long hours of walk and standing during our second day there.   Because I love the feel of the shoes, the flats went back home unused. lol!  But in my work this week, I think i’ve work the flats twice.  It is a comfortable feel on my toes when it’s so busy at work and at some point I need to do an errand.

I want another pair of footwear this Christmas.  But it’s not a priority.  Just in case there is extra, surely I want to grab one.

4G Memory Card

By , November 20, 2011 7:14 pm

Got it last Friday and right in the evening, I used it to take some videos of the Cherubims in concert. =)  I should have purchased 8G but was scared it might not be compatible with my point and shoot Canon IXUS 120is.

Now am almost off to Manila without worries of having the mem card full because I now have a 4G reserve. =)

Bing Bang Theory Loved Products

By , November 3, 2011 7:04 am

I love tees but I don’t wear tees all the time.  The latest tee I got was last Saturday and the print says YES to Solar!  A t-shirt campaign for Solar power in Mindanao because of water shortage, an effect of global warning.   That tshirt I got on Saturday is not Sheldon made but this black tee I am putting up here looks similar with the one I got because of it’s color.

Big Bang Theory shirts or what they called Sheldon-Isms T prints use graphics that conveys messages – to either remind you or make a reader give you a second look – not that you look pretty or nice but because of the uniqueness of the printed message.

Example,

THAT’S MY SPORT!

What does it mean?  It means am so good at being a couch potato!  Many loves the couch potato sport than really out in the court or the field doing some physical sports.  So this shirt is really good for me. lol!

Sheldon-ism tees can be ordered online.   They have their online catalog which showcase every product they have.  Their products does not only deal with print on shirts but also on other clothing category.  They also have have t-shirt for advocate drives such as Breast Cancer T-shirt, Military T-shirt, Retro T-shirts and the like.    One of the many things shoppers like it at Sheldon-ism is that they can design their own shirts.  Personalized is the term.  You can order per piece and you can also order by bulk.  The tshirts comes in several sizes.  They also have the plus-size tees so this shop is really for everyone – young and old, big and small.

Looking for birthday gift ideas?  Then check out their big bang theory shirts and other products because you will just find the thing you will need for a certain occasion.  From calendars to mugs, and all stuff – it’s there.  Here’s one that I like,

I think it’s a very nice thingy for give aways or for swap.

How I wish they deliver stuff to the Philippines.  I will share this link with my cousin so she can start shopping now for Christmas.  :)

Plus Size Bathing Clothing

By , September 17, 2011 11:57 pm

Honestly, a woman like me who wears size 12 and above do have a hard time finding bathing suits here in the Philippines.  Reason?  Asians are normally small and thin framed.  So a plus size clothing is a category in any shop.  One of the places I go and try to find plus size section is in SM Mall.  There i tried scouring for plus size lingerie because women as we are no matter what the size, still loves to look and feel sexy in the privacy of the bedroom.  It does not mean that when you are a big sized person, you are just worth a cloth wrapped a round you.  There are many designers too that cater to plus sized designs and it’s very interesting to see catalogs of their designs.

I haven’t done any shopping lately because I am in the process of shedding the excess pounds.  Since summer until now, I have lost a total of 20 pounds and I know with God’s grace more are coming up.  So I haven’t done any major shopping yet because maybe 5 orf 10 more, I will change my wardrobe.  The only thing I got last month was a T-shirt I got from the UK shop.  5 pounds more then am off to buy a jeans.

Shopping Galore

By , December 12, 2010 10:50 pm

I am experiencing fun going around the shopping places with two women who loves shopping.  I love shopping too but i don’t have the cash that the women i am with have.  We went around several buildings full of garments, fashion bags, shoes and accessories.  Just so many items to buy.  The shoppers are not the local people but they are people from all over the world.  Others are just doing the leisure of shopping and there are also others who are seriously buying stuff for business in their home country.  This afternoon, i saw two big Arab guys with big bags of shopped  clothes.  I saw them at the shop selling vintage t shirts and I am sure they bought a lot, too!

My daughter’s grandma bought some of these dresses:

Made in China

By , June 11, 2010 2:10 pm

I visited a friend’s blog earlier and she said that she lies shopping in Chinese shops because what they sell are very affordable.  I agree with her but the like or love is not what i feel.  Having worked there for several years, i can say that not all their stuff are of good quality.  If you buy a dress at low cost then expect that the dress will just be good for a month or two.  U can almost call them disposable because after a couple of use they are not as good as the sellers promised to be.  With that experience I am wondering what would it be like if one buys cheap auto insurance ? I hope that they are still legitimate insurances even they are bought at a very low price.  Products made in china for export purposes are durable.  But their local products for the local populace is never as good as those that are exported.

Function Room Renovation

By , May 31, 2010 8:31 am

To renovate a place takes money and time.  But it does not matter if it is really a must to renovate a place.  The conference room at the hospital was being renovated months back.  The pain colors were changed, the curtains were replaced by blinds and it made the ambience a comfortable place to have a meeting.    I also wish that our conference room here in the college will be renovated and then i would like to be the one who will chose for the color of the new curtains.  But if they will approve our request to use blinds then we will order blinds.
