I’m so late! On my Christmas shopping list, that is. I’m a stickler for lists and everything else that’s why I usually do my Christmas shopping in July. Which means by October, I’m pretty much covered already.
This year, I started October and I’m not even halfway through my list yet. What’s happening to me???
Actually, it was my US trip that kicked off the shopping. I got a few items from there. I so love Walmart and Tanger Outlet. Ang daming anik-anik na you wouldn’t think about buying but when you’re there na, mapapabili ka and maiisip mo, ay pwede pala yun š And mind you, they come in cheap but looks expensive hahaha
Then late last month, my sisters offered to place an order for me at my tried-and-tested handicrafts supplier – Balasi Export. I have been getting items from them since 2009. Here are some of the Christmas gifts I got from them –
The pictures don’t do them justice, I tell you. I even got my lil girl’s 1st birthday giveaways from them. š
Anyway, yun pa lang talaga ang nasho-shop ko. Sigh. And when I tried to go to the mall last weekend, I got so overwhelmed. Believe me, daig ang UAAP sa dami ng tao. I don’t think I can finish start my shopping with that frenzy. So now, I’m back to my another shopping method – online!
Yes, I’m wired like that. I actually enjoy online shopping more than going to the stores (and getting a parking space). But still, there are items that need to be inspected and you can’t do that via computer š
So little time, so many things to do.
Hope you can suggest online stores that are worth visiting because they’re value for money. I’m already resigned to the fact that I won’t brave my way to the malls again.

I also hate mall shopping crowds. I’m also going to start to venture into online shopping. It’s much more convenient, and you can search for stuff without hurting your feet š
