Shopping Malls(Centers)...saan kayo madalas magpunta sa Metro Manila?

[greenlyt]

^ we also do our groceries at South Supermarket Magallanes before,
super lapit na namin sa SM Bicutan pero rarely lang kami mag grocery dun kasi san damakmak ang dami ng tao would rather go to SnR the Fort or Landmark makati or Shopwise sucat or Puregold BLS which is walking distance lang from our house

[_Cathy_]

I go 168 and 1188 and 999. Puro numbers ang mall sa divisoria! I don't like Lucky Mall because it seems to be a mismatch in the area. When I go to divisoria I wear my worst clothes - faded shirt, holes in my bag, slippers. My Mom says I look embarrassing

[Retz]

For bargain items you might opt to check out HMR.

Sayang nga they tore it down. We switched to Rustan's from South but when I learned from my friend that Landmark is the cheapest place for groceries, I never looked back

I only go to SM supermarket if I have absolutely no choice. I do like their Bonus wheat bread and used to walk all the way to SM from Landmark just to buy that single item. Pero napikon na talaga ako sa kulang na sukli, and I hate how they order you where to line up and the bagger boys do not even assist sa pagalis ng items from the cart (it seems arrogant to me).

Yeah! My guy friend took me to Quiapo once, during that time DVDs were so expensive pa at the mall, around P800 ata. Only Quiapo had a good selection, so he told me to wear pambahay and look spartan para iwas holdup. I just brought a coin purse, license and money. My friend was too lazy to drive but I did not want to bring my car to Quiapo so I drove his car. Baka pag balik niya chassis na lang daw matira sa auto niya I am not sure if my friend was pulling my leg but he even asked me to change into generic slippers kasi kahit slippers daw hino holdup! I had fun naman.

imho, Landmark yung pinaka OK sa counter and baggers. Wala akong bilib sa SM, Shopwise, etc in that aspect

i kinda like the old Greenhills Shopping Center, yung mala tiangge yung layout. Ung isang aunt ko was in town recently and spent a few days just mall touring -- sa GH siya nakabili ng madami

Sadly it's starting to look like the more upscale malls with high-end shops(which i don't go into)

have to agree, never kong nakitang humaba ang pila sa counter nila,
although dyan nasira yun magnetic strip ng atm ko nun mag EPS ako, they have to close the counter while they wait for me withdraw some cash upstairs

[_Cathy_]

Yes. The bagger boys at Landmark are polite nga. Even the counter girls.

I remember the old GH too. My Lolo's favorite restaurant was Le Ching. The place has not changed since the 80s. hehe.

That's all part of the grand plan of Tatang. Every where you go, every aspect of your life... may Esem.

masuwerte yang si Tatang.
sabi ni erpats ang maganda daw noon yung Good Earth, kasabayan ni esem. nalugi si Good Earth.
pag papasok ka daw sa Good Earth noon, sa escalator may sasalubong sayong mga mala stewardess ang dating. kaya lang, ganun talaga. yun nga lang binuksan ulit good earth nitong late 2000, kaya lang may sa malas lang siguro talaga. nasunog!

meron pa bang pumupunta sa
ISETTAN
FAIRMART
PLAZAFAIR

sa Ever meron pa rin naman.

parang walmart all in one yun HMR, mga surplus mga binebenta. mga old stocks from US or AUS...walang kwenta doon mga paninda...mga lumang models. kung meron ka man magustuhan...either damage or not worth the price

[_Cathy_]

^wala ako masyado mabibili dyan sa HMR. Gusto ko abubot lang

My Lola passed away in 1986 when she 86.
