Love HSBC…Love Starbucks!

I so love the newest promo from HSBC credit card this time. Learned about it from a pop displays I saw from most of Starbucks counter like this one…

I am a sure patron of this promo.   As you know Starbucks coffee shops have been my regular meeting venues. Good thing, I was really keeping all those charge slips. The promo would run from April 1-June 30. Redemption would be until August 30. Just be aware that they would get your charge slip so if you are keeping track of it like me to counter check with my bill, better to just record your purchases. Now, I would have to split up my grocery shopping to different charge slips so I could get more of these free drinks! You get mabuhay miles from PAL by using this credit card and you also get free drink from starbucks. I love it!!!

Lists, Lists, Lists…

Before I even think to buy diet pills online, I am working on my lists of what to bring for our trip as well as one major list for what to look for in outlet stores in US. I’m sure I’ll go ga-ga over outlet shopping, Target, and even Costco shopping. Just looking on what’s new with ON, I would have wanted to click on checkout already for the items in my shopping cart.

Here’s what I’m looking at…

De-cluttering….

For the past few weeks, I have been de-cluttering my closet and so as the little girls’ closets. I have sold few of my old bags including some designer ones. Last week, I cleared up those clothes that the girls have not been wearing anymore. I still have to clean some more to have new space for the stuff we would get in the US. I am surprised that the kids’ clothes were sold in an instant through flickr. Now, I need to clear up Dicky’s closet this time. I am thinking to dispose those number of shirts he has and even neckties and bow ties that he seldom use. He has large variety of designs for those and I’m pretty sure he would get new ones when we travel this May. It feels so good to de-clutter sometime. You feel that some extra baggages are disposed off, making way for new purchases ;)

Silver this time…

Got my Tory Burch Silver Reva yesterday. Happy, happy! What’s more, this came in as a gift from a very good friend! Can I be so lucky? Yes I am so lucky! Hahaha! Was just asking him to buy me these reva flats from the store while he was in Chicago for a shoot last week. He came home with my right size and best of it all, it’s his gift for me instead! So love it! I am so thankful!

My boots…

Who said my kids were the only ones ready to brave a cold weather?  I do have two leather boots already (black and brown) but I just can’t get enought of it.   We are not going any further but getting a new pair of boots were just an “in” thing in twitter=shopping” site.  So I also gave in and bought my own knee-high pair from Zara…

Can’t wait to wear these! ;)

Ready for winter?

I know there is no winter here and it’s almost spring when we travel this May but what the heck, I just bought these winter jackets for the kids. I got these from Zara during their clearance sale last January. Lucky enough to find boots as well for the kids. These jackets are big enough for them anyway. It could even fit them even when they are 8 years old! ;) so we have more time to use it. (reason to travel every year!) :P

May TB na ako!!!

Finally!  It was making me sleepless for couple of days after seeing exactly what I like in Greenbelt5.  With my size available, I didn’t take any chances anymore.  This is what happens when your “B” bag is not yet arriving!  Arg!

And it was all the more a reward after learning that I am not pregnant! :P Rejoice!  lol!

The shoes are comfy for me.

Tory Burch is now open…

in greenbelt 5!  It opened last friday according to my friends.  Saw it today when I had a lunch with them.  I didn’t bother to check the store yet as I was already late for our lunch.  And I was rushing back to Ortigas after for a meeting.  My friends said they paid tribute already to Tory ;) and that shoes are from 10k-15k.  Still not convinced.  Will check the store myself as I want to try a reva flats IRL :P

Christmas Decors Shopping…

We took advantage of the holiday last monday, November 2 to go to 168 mall to purchase lootbags and some prizes for Bianca’s party in school tomorrow.  Apparently, we were able to see few christmas decors as well so we did purchase.  My husband also got christmas lights already.  I almost can’t imagine how much he has spent for those christmas lights in rolls.  The ones in like the plastic hose as he plans to put lights on our entire lawn area. 

We then headed to Megamall to buy our new christmas tree.  We haven’t put up yet though.  Will wait for next weekend.  We also bought the decors to put for the tree plus all other decors for our side tables, living room centertable, vases, candles, new throw pillow cases.  We went home that our car was almost full.  Counting back, I gaspped at the thought of how much we spent just for that day.  

We have started to put some already today in time for my dear Bianca’s bday.  I am seeing that I still lack some actually so I would probably hit the mall again this coming weekend.  We have decided for the traditional color scheme this year, RED and GOLD.  So it would be easy to keep all those we bought for next year since it’s very conventional.  Yeah, we should repeat use of it as it ain’t all cheap!
