Puregold to Launch Online Entertainment Channel

     Challenging and trying as the times may be, it is probably in our nature to try and find something that might give us that much needed lift in spirits. Whether it's busying ourselves with new-found hobbies, reconnecting with friends, or simply binge-watching movies, it's all about finding that pleasant diversion that reassures us that better days will come soon.

     Puregold recognizes this hopeful spirit as it continues to look after every Filipino's welfare amidst these uncertain times. As online consumption grows brought about by the "stay home" lifestyle, Puregold has contemplated venturing in this space to further reach out to its public. But this time, it sets out beyond being a retailer as we know it to be and explores the world of bringing entertainment to Filipinos.

Puregold to Launch Online Entertainment Channel

We found SALLY and she is...

     Let's go back in the early days of 2020 wherein Metro Manila commuters, while stuck in traffic, saw billboards about a certain "SALLY." The billboards, spotted on EDSA, C5 and in Commonwealth, sounded like someone is in need of SALLY. I presume you've seen lifestyle bloggers here in the Philippines were also looking for her. "SALLY, where are you?" "I need you, SALLY." "Wish you were here, SALLY." "Has anyone seen SALLY?" "Help me, SALLY."

     So who exactly is SALLY? SALLY is a coined term for Shopping Ally. This is what the newly launched PUREGOLD MOBILE stands for. Taking the grocery shopping experience to the next level, the app was designed by Puregold and Globe Telecom to adapt to consumer’s evolving needs and to keep pace with the technology in offering a better way to shop.

     Rush- one word that I hate to hear during the holidays. It is during this time of the year that our schedules turn into a whirlwind because of the gatherings, reunions, and preparations for Noche Buena and Media Noche. I also noticed that it's not only in preparing meals but also in buying gifts as well. All things related to Christmas may bring hassles in jampacked times.

     In these busy times, I thank the geniuses behind honestbee- Asia's fastest growing foodservice powered by community and technology that makes shopping for food and grocery items a breeze. They recently partnered with another leading hypermarket chain, Shopwise to give more choices to the growing population of online grocery shoppers.

honestbee x The Marketplace by Rustan's

     I had a conversation with my husband last week on what to prepare for the holidays. I told him that I wanted something special and not the usual 'handa' because I want to celebrate Christmas up a notch with premium food items on the dining table.

     When I say premium, these are the products or deli items that you will not see in a regular grocery or supermarket. The ingredients in making special dishes need imported or hard to find brands that are usually available in premium stores like The Marketplace by Rustan's. But when I think of the holiday rush, all I wanna do is stay at home and order my groceries from honestbee. Do you want to shop for premium grocery items in the comfort of your home? It's possible now that honestbee recently partnered with The Marketplace by Rustans. Check out the premium brands you can score after the jump :)

     Think of artisan cakes, gourmet ice creams, Lechon, truffle pasta, and all the viands best served during the holiday season, yum!!!

Winning Moments with My Mom

     Now I know why motherhood is a winning experience. When I was a child, my mother would always tell me to be always happy with simple things that life has to offer. I'm lucky that my parents gave all that they can give and strive hard to give the best of both worlds (needs and wants). I'm also thankful especially to my mother who taught me household chores at an early age. 

     But there's one thing that makes my mom a winner- a champion in cooking delicious meals for the family and until now she still has it. Since she loves to cook, our bonding moments when I was a child was our weekly trip to the grocery. It's a simple bonding moment but a memorable one. From her, I learned the basics- how to buy fresh meat and fish, how to spot the not in fruits, and how to make a budget for one week. So this Mother's Day, my mom deserves only the best. I want to show her that we can still do that bonding moment on this special day. Find out more below.
