Who doesn't love cheap yet quality finds, right? I always (well, at least) try to find great items with a not so really great price (if you know what I mean! Haha!). So, today, me, my BabyLove and my parents went out to go for a day out of thrifty shopping! Some items I wanted to look for were stuff I could wear or use for our trip to Palawan next week for my birthday. Yay! Check out the photos of some of the things I got from our shopping. ;)
 |
| Inside the fitting room, trying out one of the clothes I bought. :) |
 |
| Front of the dress. Ain't it pretty? That only cost me Php120 |
 |
| For those who have read my 'What Makes You Happy Post', you might know that I LOVE coffee. So, I bought myself this creamer, French Vanilla flavor. :D |
 |
| I remember when we used to get one of these in 'balikbayan' boxes when we were little. So, I was so giddy to get one of these! I just realized that I wasn't able to get the pixi powder though! Argh! |
 |
| Also reminds me of childhood! One of my all-time fave sour bubble gum! |
 |
| I used to love these when I was a kid. Now, it's BabyLove's turn to enjoy bubble baths! :D I got this in 1 litre for only a little over $2. |
 |
| Nail Dryer. Found this in the toy section! Haha! But since I love doing my nails so much, I thought I needed one of these. And, I got it for less than Php100! |
 |
| Yay! Clear stamps! I got 5 packs (as you can see). I also got a pack of paper stack and a corner puncher. Not the standard corner rounder though (there wasn't any available). Planning to go back again when I get the budget again to collect more stuff! These all are for bargain prices! These don't sell cheap online! These are all approx just approx. Php500. |
 |
| Diaper rash creams at the mall or pharmacies cost Php300 and above! This I got for just a little over Php50! Same goes for the Cabinet and Drawer latches (because my BabyLove is starting to open the pantry! I am afraid she might drop the canned goods on her feet! So, these are one of my most needed. |
 |
| And finally, a door fence (is that correct?) which we got for just Php500 at a Japanese thrift store! I definitely needed this but did not want to buy an expensive brand new item! This looks just like brand new, and I have never found anything similar as cheap as this! |
I got a few more such as shoes and the other clothes I got for just Php120 each, but was too lazy to take a photo as it is really late. Haha!
Hope you enjoyed going shopping with me (well, virtually at least! Haha!) Hope you all had a great day as I did!
Cheers!
Add it to your boards!
I hope you don't mind me asking where store did you went for thrifty shopping. I love thrift finds too. Thanks.

Hello Mommy Maye,
DeleteWho doesn't, right? :D The stores are found here in Clarkfield Pampanga. They are Duty Free shops. :) Most items are US Imports especially canned and boxed foods and juices and the like.. :) Items are really cheap, although now it was not as cheap as it first started. But still, very great prices as compared to those at the mall, especially when it comes to baby stuff, hair prods and clothes that come from the US. :) Hope that helps.
Great Finds! I hope I can find a great deal for door fence too. I need 2 door fence and the one that I saw cost around 3k. Do they sell online? (desperate)
ReplyDeleteAnd Oh, I like crafting too but I never get to use that clear stamp because I don't know how it works. Maybe show me some of your works. I hope I don't sound too demanding.
hiya lalah. thank you for dropping by.
Deleteyes, the door fences, if bought from the malls, it is expensive. thats why the one i got was a great find. :-)
as for your request to show how clear stamps work. sure, i will post soon on my craft blog some samples. ;-)
yah, i did enjoy shopping with you...snooping your stuff, particularly that lovely blouse
ReplyDeleteYes, the blouse was too cute! Even those I haven't got a photo of were so nice also. Too bad I wasn't able to get a photo. Thank you for dropping by! :D
Deleteaww.. thats far! i thought you just shop somewhere in manila.. huhu sad :(
ReplyDeleteHello Aby..
DeleteAwww! Sorry about your disappointment. I am from Pampanga lang kasi, so for me it was convenient.. I only go to Manila occasionally for trips to Divisoria, but that is really seldom. :(
You were really shopping so many stuff. Thrift shopping for me is a trip to the ukay-ukay. :D
ReplyDeleteNaku Kat, I LOVE ukay-ukays! Haha! Imagine, I can pull the prices further down.. Haha. The stores we went to when we went out for thrifty shopping holds really cheap and quality items. Which is why I bought a lot of stuff which I needed as well for my BabyLove! Thrift shopping is the best! haha
DeleteMe too Ukay ukay is the best to go thrift shopping. Kaso wise na rin yung ibang may ari ng ukay-ukayan. Mahal din ang price lalo na if alam nila branded.
DeleteI love going to such stores and spending time to find a great buy! I'm not quite sure if Saizen is available in Pampanga but all items are priced at P88!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend! :D
We do have other Japanese Thrift Stores, although I think Saizen at Marquee Mall. Not sure though. Haha!
DeleteBeen shopping for our trip to Palawan too. We'll be there end of July :)
ReplyDeleteSayang naman sis! We will be there next friday. Hehe! :D
DeleteWow I love the wallpaper background of your site! Did you made it?
ReplyDeleteI also love to shop for cheap finds. In my case, I usually get it from used Japan stores.
I love Japan stores holding 2nd hand items! So cheap! Well, if you come across a really thrifty one.
DeleteThank you for appreciating my background. But, I did not make it. I just downloaded it, however, I am not sure as to what site I got it from. =\ I will let you know if I do find out where I found it. ;)
nice finds sis :) yay! to thirfting! hihi! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks sis! Haha! Yes, YAY to thrifting talaga! :D
DeleteYay! I also enjoy thrift shopping. :D
ReplyDelete"Fashion is what you buy, style is what you do with it!"
Yes! That is so true! Although I am not born with a stylish or fashion-set mind (i only look through online for how to wear some clothes), I still enjoy really cute clothes and dressing up!
Deletewhere are those trift shops? wanna go too! i want a nail dryer too pls and the blouse ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha! These shops we went to are Duty Free shops at Clark, Pampanga. Also, we went to Japanese warehouse stores selling a variety of stuff. :) I also love going to Divisoria for some thrift shopping! Haha!
DeleteAs for the nail dryer, it is more of a toy, I think? Hahaha! Although I haven't tried it out yet. Pero mas malakas pa ata hangin ng blower!? LoL! Well, 50php lang naman, so... Hahaha! It was worth the try, don't you think? :P
Ang nice naman the dress.
ReplyDeleteThank you Shadz! Yes, I super love the dress, especially it's a lace back.
DeleteWe really need to be thrifty nowadays. It doesn't to be practical and thrifty.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree! :D I always find ways to save and finding stuff on bargains.
DeleteThese are all great finds! Indeed, your shopping experience was a blast! :)
