“Shopping and Planning” Has Never Been This Fun
Shopping has always been my favorite thing to do. I believe that retail therapy is the answer to all my worries in life. Whenever I finish taking a mind-cracking exam in law school, the first thing I think of is to treat myself. When I say “treat to self”, I mean going out with friends or enjoying a shopping spree. I look at it as a way of rewarding myself after surviving the stressful busy days. Whenever I get recognition and receive appreciation for all the tasks that I do, I also think of shopping. For me, it’s the best reinforcement to keep myself inspired.
However, the problem comes in when I don’t get enough “time” to shop. I have cases to read every day, exams almost every week and blog events every now and then. So, I end up running out of time. Good thing there are sites like
Save22.com.ph that allows busy individuals like me to shop conveniently. This “time and money saving site” provides easy access to promotions, discounts, product offers and announcements from different brands and stores of the major cities in the country – Metro Manila, Davao and Cebu.
Honestly, I thought that Save22 is only for girls like me who enjoy shopping but has a limited time to do it. Recently, I discovered that this site is a perfect place for those who wants to make plans for trips. Who would have thought that only Save22.com.ph can help me arrange my quick trip to Manila next week?
I will be going to the Metro to meet a blogger friend from the US who just came home in the Philippines. There will be at least five of us and being the foodie in the group, it’s my task to look for a good restaurant. My length of stay there will only be enough for me to have a quick lunch with blogger friends. By “quick,” I mean it’s the only thing that I will do there. My flight is on Thursday at 7AM and I’ll be back in Davao by 5PM on the same day just in time for my evening class. Therefore, I have to make plans ahead of time in order for us to have a meaningful lunch.
Upon checking on the restaurants category of Save22, I found these promotions:
Thanks to Save 22, I already have top two places in my list. I think I’ll go at Spiral for lunch and take advantage of their promo. The offer is a FREE buffet for the 4th person in the group. That means, we can save up to P2,341 with this promo by simply using our credit cards. At the same time, I haven’t been to Sofitel yet and my trip to Manila next week will be a great one if I can get a chance to finally visit this luxury resort hotel. Plus, it’s near SM Mall of Asia where we can do our quick shopping if time permits us to do so. We can also go for Texas Roadhouse Grill and save 40% OFF for every P3,500 order. If we choose this, we can save P2,000 for every P5,000 bill. We will only pay P3,000!
What’s next? Of course, I have to shop for a great outfit for that special day! After searching for the restaurants, the next thing I checked was “Clothing & Apparel.” Here’s what I found:
I’m really happy to see that the Forever 21 SM Lanang in Davao is participating on the 3-DAY SALE. If not for Save22, I wouldn’t know that there will be an upcoming sale starting tomorrow. I will visit F21 on Sunday so I can shop for great finds which I can wear on my Manila trip. This is what I mean about retail therapy. What better ways could take my stress aside from shopping?
Now, I can simply sit back and wait for Thursday to come. Everything is all set. Thanks to the amazing Save22.com.ph. Planning was made easy!
With this site, we can research online first before shopping offline. We can start window shopping at the comfort of our own homes. Plus, we can save more time because all we need to do is to list down the Filipino retailers and malls we see at Save22. No hassle. Shopping has never been this fun. No registration needed!

Every month I always make it a point to reward myself even for just a simple treat to dine out with a friend. It's been one of my routine ever since I got a job. As of now, I still do it once a month and go to every resto I've never been before. 🙂
this is actually helpful, at least you have some reference on what stores are on sale and the places you may want to go.
Online shopping is great as it's both targets comfort and enjoyment. We just have to be careful in choosing and trusting online merchants.
That is a very quick trip. Good thing there's save22 to help you plan the quick meet up.
Wow! This is great for people like me who loves to shop online 🙂 Save more!
I believe in retail therapy too. I didn't know about this site but I'm interested to give it a try. I hope they are efficient with transactions.
save22 looks really great and helpful mostly for us girls. I think that this will help to save more 🙂
This is sooo cool! I suddenly feel the need to share this to my friends who are so into online shopping! =)
Whah, this site seems to offer almost everything except my wife's nod. LOL. Wala kasi siyang bilib sa online selling. She likes touching what she wanted to buy before making a deal. Algene, ito pala ang dahilan kung bakit nakasama ka sa EB natin.
