    well, kung naiinitan, tambay sa mall (make sure di dala ATM hehe) para menos aircon sa bahay...

    Pwede ring tumayo sa harap ng abensons para manood ng tv o movie...

    Avoid optional expenses such as expensive cellfones, car accesories and gadgets
    Don't go to MIDNIGHT SALE! (mapipilitan ka lang bumili kahit di mo pa kailangan dahil lang sa mura)

    If you do errands often when at home, don't take your gas-powered ride with you. Either use public transport or excercise them legs and get on a bike. I used to take my car to the market every Saturday. Now, I just take my Ilocos bike with a big-basket up front. Na-exercise pa ako. If you can get free parking, go for it Just make sure it is secure.

    If you have to bring your car if it ain't hot don't turn on the aircon.

    of course not, unless your tank has no cap, is above the car and it's over 130 degrees out.

    if and when you can, daily punas ng auto para di mag pile up ang dirt at tipid sa car wash.
    sa office naman, iwas sa lunch out. kung pwede mag-baon na lang.

    twice a week na lang ako magdala ng car sa office.
    fx na lang muna pasig-galleria. baon na rin ng lunch sa office.
    stop na rin sa beer. grabe na talaga, wala pa ring wage increase.

    balak ko na rin tanggalin or palitan ang skycable sa bahay.
    ano bang pinaka-murang cable tv provider ngyon? destiny ba?

    i think this is true....what i do to save money is i walk to work everyday. that saves me from gas, parking, pollution. although it's hot and hirap to go up the mrt to cross edsa, i still do it..imagine...i save P1500 a month on parking alone. and to beat the heat at my apartment..i go to tagaytay and stay there the whole weekend....free lodging.

    yup totoo iyan...nage expand din ang liquid fuel...kadalasan exposed kasi ang semento ng mga gas stations sa araw kaya ang UGT(underground tank) kasama ang fuel sa loob nito eh nag iinit din...

    Its just this barbeque sauce. You can buy it in your local grocery store. We buy ours at Unimart in greenhills. Its also available at the "Little Store on the Hill" store (one branch at gilmore corner aurora in QC). If you are in Binondo, you can find it at Bee Tin store. It comes in about three sizes.

    The label on the can says "Bullhead Barbeque Sauce".

    Yung SkyCable namin di ko nabayaran for four months kasi naiinis ako at sobrang taas na ng rates nila!

    After a week, pumunta yung Technician nila sabi nga e Closed na yung Account ko sa Sky at puputulin na lang daw nila yung linya nung cable...

    E bigla ba namang humirit na "Sir, kung gusto nyo kakabitan na lang namin kayo ng panibagong linya ng cable libre, no subscription, 2thou lang!" Aba e syempre kumagat na ko hehehe! Sabi just in case na magkaproblema kontakin lang daw sya. Nag-iwan pa ng number at sabi mag-refer daw ako sa kanya nung iba pang me gusto hehehe! Sarap ng libre! Nakaisa din ako sa buwayang si Lopez!

    Tama yan Chip. Its either gas at at night or early in the morning. Wag kang mag gas pag mainit sayang lang pera mo.

    1. switching to a lower displacement car
    2. switching to diesel instead of gas rides
    3. going 'al-fresco' instead of turning on the aircon when the weather is bearable

    generally speaking naman:
    1. magbaon
    2. cut down, but not necessarily stop indulging, on gimiks, vice, luxuries, etc.


    with regards to washing your car...tingin mas tipid kung idadala mo na lang sa carwash...basta't on the way o di ganun kalayo ung carwash B)
