     The most anticipated and much awaited movie of the year will come to big screen four days from now and I'm sure everyone is so excited to see this epic battle- Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Before the launching date on cinemas, big brands joined in  the promotion of this movie and culminated different activities for all the fans.

     I was invited by one of the brands who tied up with Warner Bros. Pictures in promoting this movie- Energizer. This brand is known to produce Eveready and Energizer batteries that remain to be market leader in the batteries and portable lights category driven by its quality and superior performance. Last year, Energizer launched its Energizer® Max® batteries, which are 35 percent longer-lasting than its previous version. Now, Energizer Philippines, Inc., partners with Warners Bros. Pictures on its upcoming release, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, coming to cinemas in the Philippines on March 26, 2016. Details on improved Energizer® Max® batteries and Energizer PH x Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice promo below :)

     The epic action adventure features the much-awaited battle between the world’s most iconic Super Heroes in their first-ever big screen pairing. Adding to the excitement, Energizer will launch a promotional activity featuring limited edition Superman, Batman and WonderWoman-inspired collectibles.

     The company’s partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures made it possible for Energizer to share positiveenergy with the Filipino customers, who are fans of the famous Super Heroes as well. This new perspective gives Energizer more reasons to share positivenergy to the Filipino consumers. Just like these legendary DC Comics characters, Energizer is also powered to bring to life the battery-operated gadgets owned by Filipinos for a more convenient and entertaining life and it's like positivenergy beyond borders!

Feature: PLDT HOME DSL Speedster Fam Plan 1299

Wednesday, February 10, 2016

     In our family, I'm the heavy internet user because of my job- blogging. I'm online more than ten hours a day. Having a fast and reliable internet at home is a must especially now that my husband and my son also have gadgets which we use to communicate everyday. My husband has a night job while my son is in Kindergaten. Having gadgets with internet connection is important to us. Since my husband works at night, he wants to make sure that we're safe at home at bedtime. We use viber to communicate and show him a photo of us (me and Kenzo) inside our room. Kenzo on the other hand has a simple handy tablet where he watch his favorite youtube channels. He also uses his tab to study and do some of his homeworks under my supervision. 

     So I can say that having a high speed internet at home is a must because we use it to do different tasks everyday. But we have a problem when outside our home because we have limited data connections.  Just recently, I heard that PLDT HOME DSL is offering another subscription plan that will benefit me and my family outside our home, I'm so giddy to share with you the reasons why PLDT HOME DSL Speedster Fam Plan 1299 will benefit the whole family especially with data-sharing outside home. More details about this newest offering from PLDT HOME DSL below :)

We can also share data while we are grocery shopping, I browse the internet to look for recipes and ingredients while Kenzo is being entertained watching his favorite Youtube show so he will not get bored while waiting for our queue in the cashier.

Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!

Saturday, February 06, 2016

     Filipinos now enjoy online shopping. This kind of buying online is already a part of Filipino culture. I'm one of those Filipinos who find online shopping the easiest way to buy things that I need and want because it's hassle-free. All I have to do is go online, browse my favorite online shops, select the things that I want, pay thru my preferred payment method, and voila- wait for my package to arrive.

     It's so convenient to shop online BUT not all the time because there are things that I also need to consider like the selections of products and items available, the payment method, and shipping. I know some individuals veer away from online shopping because they don't have a credit card and they worry about the shipping rates. Another problem that I myself encountered while shopping online last year was the availability of items, as most of the items I want are available overseas like in the US and only thru Amazon. Well, looks like my dilemma of shopping US products online will be a breeze with the launch of HalpU! I'm sure you are very excited to know more of HalpU, scroll down below to see what's in store for you with HalpU!
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
     So what is HalpU? HalpU is an ordering tool for items available on Amazon.com. Basically you will shop US products online, send thru balikbayan box, kahit walang credit card!

     YES!!! Those are the three things that you will like about HalpU. To show you more what HalpU has to offer especially to those who are a frequent shoppers of US products online, read more below :)

1. HalpU provides an easier way for Filipinos to shop online, even without a credit card. Pinoys can now shop US products online, kahit walang credit card. (HalpU was created with OFWs in mind, but later on they realized that HalpU will also be good for the Filipino market in the Philippines who wants to shop US products.) 
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
2. Your OFW relatives can shop for you and your loved ones on the HalpU website. HalpU will consolidate all orders, put it in a balikbayan box, and ship to their families in the Philippines. HalpU box content, as long as they contain personal effects, don't get taxed when it lands in the Philippines. Can I hear a resounding YES for this?!? We always worry about the taxes that we will pay once we receive products from our relatives abroad, now HalpU will make it easier for you if your products are personal effects, guaranteed no taxes, baby!
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
3. Logistics are handled by Forex Cargo, a leading balikbayan box company based in the USA. 
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
4. Like what I've said above, no need to worry about credit card. There are different ways of payment, anywhere in the world! HalpU’s payment partners are AsiaPay, Dragonpay and PayRemit.

5. HalpU will have its official launch for the OFW market during the PayRemit Pinoy Caravan in Dubai this March.

     I'm sure you're all wondering about the rates of Halpu balikbayan boxes. Cost/Rates for the standard balikbayan boxes are as follows:

RED- $55
BLUE- $65
GREEN- $75

     Because my balikbayan box is still in transit, I will share the photo of my RED balikbayan box once it arrives on my doorsteps. I'm so excited to share with you my haul! Anyhoo, shopping online with halpu.com is fun and easy. I made an account at HalpU's website and I was tasked to start filling my box. That signals to start shopping online! It's still on beta version so I was very luck to have the first dibs on their website. 
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
     HalpU is an ordering tool for items available on Amazon.com. The site is directly connected to Amazon and displays search results real time. You can find everything on Amazon in HalpU However, since there are limitations to the interface Amazon provides, they cannot (and do not intend to) replicate the Amazon shopping experience.
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
     And because shopping online with US products in HalpU is like a walk in the park, I've ordered the products that are not available in local online shops. These products are my lemmings and on my son's wish list last Christmas that I was not able to buy because I don't have a credit card and I worry about the shipping fees as the products I ordered came from different seller. So with HalpU, my orders will be consolidated in one box. No need to pay for separate shipping fees and all I have to do is fill my box with goodies that I want! Sharing with you what I ordered for my son below :)
Feature: Shop US Products online with HalpU!
     Yay! I'm really excited to share with you what's inside my HalpU box. I'll update you more on my Instagram account so stay tuned. I'm very satisfied with my shopping experience at halpu.com! Now I can truly say that we can “Shop US products online. Send thru balikbayan box. Kahit walang credit card” with the help of HalpU!

Are you excited to shop online with HalpU?

Cherry Mobile #Cherry Christmas Promo Launch

Saturday, October 17, 2015

     My mother-in-law is an OFW. She's a nurse in a very far away land and I know how hard it is for her to leave his one and only son (when he was just 3 years old) and that's my husband. If not for the welfare of her family, she will choose to stay here in our country. Because she only wants the best for her son, she decided to work abroad.

     It's been 27 years and my mother-in-law still works abroad. She go home once a year and if time permits, she will set her much needed vacation during holiday season. That's how our OFW relatives value their family and will feel so happy despite the sacrifices if they will celebrate Christmas with us. Christmas is the season of love and thanksgiving. The time most cherished by Filipinos, because more than the Noche Buena and the gift giving, we relish the precious moments spent with family and loved ones. 
Cherry Mobile #Cherry Christmas Promo Launch
     Christmas, however, is also bittersweet, especially for our hardworking OFWs. While they brim with pride, sending their families Balikbayan boxes full of gifts and goodies, they are unable to see firsthand the joy and smiles that they bring. Many OFWs would prefer to be with their loved ones this holiday, however, distance and circumstance prohibit them. 

     For this season of sharing, Cherry Mobile fulfills the deepest wishes of several of our OFWs and reunites them with their loved ones this Christmas through the #CherryChristmas promo. Christmas comes early as Cherry Mobile flies these lucky winners home for free, just in time for the holidays. 

     “For our OFWs, the happiest time of the year is also sometimes the loneliest. I saw firsthand while I travel abroad how much Filipinos yearn for their home and families. There really is no place like home. For those who live in the Philippines, we are happy to give and receive gifts, but deep inside,there’s no greater joy than being with family. I’m proud to be part of a brand that supports, connects, and encourages the Filipino family to be together,” shares brand ambassador Piolo Pascual. 
Cherry Mobile #Cherry Christmas Promo Launch
Brand Ambassador Piolo Pascual
     Maynard Ngu, president of Cherry Mobile, adds,“One thing holds true to every OFW out there, if they all had a choice, they would never leave their families. I know that they would do everything just to enjoy Noche Buena with their loved ones, to open gifts with their kids, to celebrate Mass with their family and friends,and to revel in the other Christmas traditions. So we would like to gift them with this opportunity. ” 

     This season, through the #CherryChristmas promo, Cherry Mobile rewards the hard work and sacrifices of our unsung heroes – the OFWs. Here are some of the mechanics:

  • The #CherryChristmas promo invites participants to share why they would like to have their loved ones home for Christmas. 
  • They can share their answers through a shortvideo, which will be uploaded through the #CherryChristmas app on the official Cherry Mobile Facebook page. 
  • The promo is open to all Filipino active Facebook users who have a family member working abroad. Cherry Mobile opens the doors and gives the opportunity for families to be together during the most special holiday season. 
Cherry Mobile #Cherry Christmas Promo Launch

     Cherry Mobile gives you more reason to be thankful. Happy holidays and cheers to a #CherryChristmas! Thank you so much Cherry Mobile for this gift to all the OFWs and their families. Invite your family and friends to join this promo. Good luck to all joining and have a Cherry Christmas, dearies!
