Was reading the reviews on here and it seems like nothing has changed; terrible customer service…read moreand a general disregard for giving the customer a good experience. I bought two items from the store, as I was in desperate need of a table in the condo I just moved into. I have bought from them a few times before, and so far I have not encountered anything worth ranting about in terms of items and customer service. However, it is safe to say that this terrible experience is one for the books. I had paid what the website charged me, and trusted that the configuration of their site was in working order. However, a day after, I received a text message that introduced themselves to me as Furniture Source Philippines that I had underpaid, and that they would not release my items to me until I paid the correct price. This was the first red flag for me. While I did not mind having to pay the delivery fee, it was the manner that they were speaking to me that I did not like. I was being made to feel like I was an irresponsible customer, when it was their website that made the mistake. When I inquired about why I was being charged more than I had already paid based on the specifications given to me by their website, I was met with no response. I then sent a message to their Viber number essentially outlining that I was not going to pay for something in which I did not understand why I was being charged extra (as is my right as a customer who paid the total in full). I was met with someone who told me that I just had to pay the extra fee or else they would not release my items to me, and that I must pay it immediately to ensure that I am able to meet the cutoff for processing orders. Second red flag. I then got pretty upset (as I am sure is understandable) and outlined how disappointed I was at the customer service I was receiving. Not a single apology from whoever was responding to my messages. They just continued to say that I would not get my items unless I paid the remaining fee -- once again I was being made out to be an irresponsible customer when it was their website that undercharged me. Third red flag. Giving up, I just paid the fee as I was desperate to receive my items ASAP. Compared to their blatant ignoring of my messages that had to do with customer comments, they responded immediately. Fourth red flag (as it indicated that they did not care about the customer at all). When I asked for a possible delivery date from them, I was ignored. One week later, I receive a text from them telling me that my delivery date was set for December 11, and that I had to respond by 3:00 p.m. that same day for them to push through with delivery. Despite me having paid in full, and was even inconvenienced into paying an extra fee, they could not even bring themselves to ask the customer if the date was alright with me! I then received a Viber message from whoever was manning that number as well, essentially telling me that the delivery team was trying to call me and I was ignoring them, and that if I did not give them a response, they will cancel my delivery and the process will restart and that I just had to deal with the consequences of not answering their calls and messages. Once again, they expect you to be at their every beck and call. Upon checking my phone's logs, I saw that they had texted and called me at around 1:30 p.m., and I had given them a response at 1:45 p.m.. They ignore you for days on end, and yet expect you to give them a response within mere minutes of them sending texts and calling you, when they do not even give you an option with the delivery date and time. Fifth red flag. There was zero service recovery done throughout this entire transaction. Whoever responds via Viber is also very demanding and arrogant when responding to customer complaints and queries. Do not buy from them. They do not care about the customer at all. Get your furniture from IKEA or SM instead. Even Landmark has better service than this company.

As far as I can recall, it was 8 years ago when it was launched again in Centris. I often visit every Sunday morning for my favorite Empanada, Pad Thai, and Buco Sherbet. This is home to a variety of food selection from regional cuisines to international flavors. Sidcor is also a great source of fresh produce, organic vegetables, and fruits. The price is at par with local neighborhood palengke and definetely cheaper than supermarket. Sidcor is open from 6:00am to 1:00pm but fresh market's stocks runs out easily. Be sure to arrive earlier. There are a lot of parking spaces available at Sidcor as well. Commuters can take the Quezon Avenue MRT station. It's a walk away from the train stop.

Before our college library started churning out back copies of the National Geographic for free to…read moremake space for "newer" publications, I used to go here to purchase back copies that go as far back as the 60s and 70s. All these vintage finds always added color to my apartment. And when I was feeling particularly hipster, I'd painfully cut out awesome photos from these issues to add life to a flat collage. But Angel Spirits Thrift House has so much more than back copies of magazines and old books. I've seen vinyls as well, mostly hand picked, as well as gorgeous antique furniture and decor piling up inside and outside the shop. I've always wanted to shop for my home decor here once I actually get a place with character.

It's known for its diverse range of stores and products like clothing, cellular phone sales, repairs and accessories, jewelry store, toys, pearls, souvenir items, restaurants, bars, video arcades, religious facilities and the ever popular tiangge that sells imported and local products for bargain hunters. A lot has changed but it is still one of the most beloved malls in the country.

Restaurant row was more inviting with more sit down choices and better design. Security upon entrance was still the same. Large bags were inspected upon entry. The tiangge section (Shoppsville side) was untouched with rows and rows of stalls selling pearls, clothing, suitcases, shoes and more. Everything here can be haggled over. I was on the search for some local food items but the stall I sought out was closed for some reason. The chapel in the mall was still something unique to see but quite convenient to attend mass. The indoor garden across the way was updated and more inviting than I remember with more seating. Parking here has always been and will likely still be a challenge. Security guards still direct traffic but drop off areas by the mall entrances do get backed up frequently. Definitely enjoyed the shopping experience more than before.

It is where i bought my skeleton pipe made out of resin. It's got a lot of old toys and collectibles that would make a great addition to your home or the perfect gift to give a special friend. Some items you will find here are collector's items from Disney like music boxes or cartoon figures from their iconic films. Band merchandise can also be found here like Beatles posters, lunchboxes, mugs, and much more. You can also find merchandise with iconic actresses like Marilyn Monroe. The rest of the store features home furniture that will take you to another era and perhaps leave you nostalgic which will make you buy something. Maybe it becomes harder to let go of the thinga here because they are all waiting for someone to take them home and treat them with the proper care they deserve.

Sure…read moreenough, when my friend and I come in, there are vintage items everywhere - vintage furniture and appliances (yes, a phone, an electric fan and a sewing machine!), vintage decor, vintage toys, and even vintage books and photos. They have a vintage bike, too - I wonder if it's easy to use? I like the old-fashioned gas lamps (gasera). I was able to only see the modern ones in action during the days when brownouts in Metro Manila were quite normal. Some of the items here are collected by the owners during their travels in the Philippines. They are quite the vintage aficionados. UVLA to me is easily one of the most interesting stores in Cubao X, and Cubao X is already interesting as it is. It's quite fascinating to see cool, nicely-designed items which are older than you are.

We all loved it and asked her to take us to the shop. When I saw this little shop, I went crazy. They had organizers for almost everything! I'm not really a fan of bag organizers. But I have a ton of them. Instead of using them to fix the junk that's in my bag, I use them for all my art materials. I stick all my pens, scissors, glitter and art stuff in them. See, I have one for my art stuff, another one for my film cameras and on and on. What I like about these little bags is that I can just drag them with me anywhere and everything I need is already in the bag. Their stuff comes in all colors. So you can use one color for one bag and another for a different bag or bathroom or luggage. The only problem I have is remembering to organize the stuff in my organizers. Oh well.

Or maybe you travel a lot and need some way to pack your toiletries. Miss O.C. is a great place to start looking for stuff to organize the rest of your stuff with. Bag organizers, make up kits, toiletry bags, luggage bags, charger organizers... you name it and they probably have something to help you sort your things out. Their kits are pretty sturdy and are large enough that you can fit whatever you need in them. You don't have to worry about running out of space for whatever you need to be tucked away. Their organizers also come in a variety of sizes and colors so you'll also find something for you. As much as I love their stuff, unfortunately they didn't have the charger organizer for me but they do sell those that are probably good for someone who has smaller chargers! They come in four and five slot sizes and will fit most cellphone, laptop, tablet and DS chargers. Sadly, the old PSP charger is a chunky beast but like I said, that's on me, not them.

For too…read morelong, I was content with artificial indoor plants made in China, which are usually poorly-made and too fanciful. But just recently, I had finally seen the light, so to speak, after I discovered Ingarden Philippines. Ingarden is a European brand, specifically Portuguese. It specializes in artificial flowers and plants and other home decorations like Christmas ornaments. It has partnered with a local holiday décor manufacturer and opened up a standalone shop in Quezon City in December 2013. Shortly after their inauguration, word about the shop rapidly caught fire within celebrity circles. A handful of big shot showbiz personalities bought their Christmas decorations that year from Ingarden, thanks to the shop's realistic trees, new wave designs (black gothic Christmas decors, anyone?), and charming pieces. Today, the shop enjoys word-of-mouth promotion from satisfied customers. And boasting over 1,000 different varieties of artificial flowers and plants, it now occupies a high place in the hearts of many celebrities and interior designers. My only complaint is their pricing, which tends to be mostly expensive. Imagine a life-size replica of a coconut fruit going for around PHP 2,000.00. It sure is expensive. But when it comes to quality and appeal of their products, you have nothing to worry about. Just ask Sharon Cuneta, Heart Evangelista and Chiz Escudero (interviewed at the shop by Jessica Soho), and Kris Aquino, among other personalities.

Most people know Muji as a Japanese store that offers household items, clothes, notebooks, pens,…read moreand other supplies. They are known for selling quality goods at an affordable price. What most people don't know is Muji is actually a great place to buy make-up. I don't really know a lot about make-up, but I have been using concealer and foundation for a while now to cover most of my dark spots, dark circles, and small blemishes on some areas of my face. I have already tried using Garnier and Clinique Advanced Concealer, but I am just not happy with it. I can't seem to find the perfect Garnier concealer that would match my skin tone and Clinique is just too expensive for me (relying on your parents for money is not easy). I like the Muji concealer because it doesn't clump and it actually matches my skin tone. It's also really affordable. You can buy it for less than 1000 pesos. They also have eyeliners, eye shadows, blush, and brushes so make sure to check Muji out if you're the type of person who just can't live without make-up. PS: I am NOT a make-up expert AT ALL, but I think I know enough about concealers for me to make a review about it (LOL)

There's just something about Muji that draws me towards the store - I think it's the mere fact that…read morethe store exudes a very minimalist look. I also love the packaging of the products here - the logo is not really seen and the look of it sticker labels are so clean. I always like going to Muji to buy pens and notebooks! I usually hoard them (I don't know why but I could easily go back to the store right) and well my cabinet still has unused notebooks as of to date. I also like going to Muji to check out the foldable travel bags and other travel accessories. I actually use Muji bags when I travel because they're very light and functional. My friends say the snacks here are also good - now that I have yet to try out! I'm really glad that there are a lot of Muji branches all over Manila.
