Lock&Lock Outs Travel in Style Line

We are all familiar with Lock&Lock and it has been in the Philippines for a long time. Remember the time when you hoarded food containers and BPA Free Water Bottles? Well this year, they are introducing new products which includes new insulated liquid tumblers for your hot and cold drinks, food containers, even travel products like bags and luggages. Now, Lock & Lock gives you more reasons to pack everything and keep your food fresh, your drinks cold this summer.

Tintin Bersola Babao was there to host the show

New Travel in Style line launched

Sales and Marketing Manager of Caleyan Marketing Corporation Adrian Chua says “Thanks for coming here. Lock&Lock now has a travel collection collection that will fit your lifestyle. We hope you take time taking a look at it in our stores and see the storage, food keepers, liquid containers and now even luggage at the Lock&Lock Flagship store here in Shangrila Plaza’s East Wing. In behalf of my Father Raphael Chua who’s the GM, I want to welcome you all!”

They also introduced Janeena Chan as their new brand ambassador.

She says “Anyone who is in the Philippines can relate because it’s so hot outside. We all need water, we don’t want single use plastics, this is something we all need especially now that we just celebrated Earth day. Lock & Lock is spill proof, got good grip and it’s easy to personalize it.” She then introduced us to a couple of items on her travel essentials and also these awesome luggages that are now part of the Lock&Lock Travel in Style line.

The luggages are made of durable aluminum and has some of the models with front pockets so you can conveniently pack on the go. It’s also got PSA Lock on the sides so no need for separate locks unless you feel the need to. The tumblers are made of stainless steel, triple layer air caps, has more space inside and some even fancy ones have different practical uses. They also have tea and fruit infusers, 6 hours for hot drinks, 12 hours for cold ones. On other models, they even got thermal bottles that can stay cold for 24 hours, if that doesn’t impress you, I don’t know what will.

You may visit the Lock&Lock Flagship store at the 6th Floor of Shangrila Plaza’s East Wing. There are sale items, buy one take one offers and even huge discounts on luggages. They also can personalize your tumblers via laser printing, for an additional Php 100 only. Take advantage of it while it’s still there!

Fun Finds at Estancia Summer Toy Fest!

When I found out that a toy fair was happening at Estancia Mall in Capitol Commons, I took the road less traveled and tagged along my blogger friends too. I'm up for nostalgia so when I heard they were having some items from my generations sold, I took the chance and found some good deals this side of town.

There were probably a little over thirty merchants and collectors who joined the Summer Toy Fest, they were laid out on the bridge way of the mall and occupied one space on the left side for a full Tamiya Race Track where competitions were held.

This wasn't a small production because they also had Iron Man and Thanos appear for mall goers. They had 50% of the mall audience taking selfies for posterity. Maybe they'll live to see it on social media. Kids had so much fun!

I had a few things in my mind, Dragon Ball Z memorabilia was abound and the Goku, Klilyn and Vegetta Lego pieces were so awesome to see!

Lest we forget the one who started it all, Master Roshi taught Goku and Kililyn martial arts, but had them work for it when they were kids. Naughty but he did good in the recent inter universe tournament eh?

Ms. Kris Aquino should have attended the event because she'll love the Carebear stuff being sold for cheap in one or two stalls.

They also had something good for Hotweels collectors, huge trucks which are not so commonly sold in malls these days.

When I saw this rack in one of the stalls, I knew I had to have em all! Well I could see some MegaMan, Super Mario, Digdug keychains that only cost 50 pesos each, got them and put it on my bag so it wouldn't look boring. It did the job, you'll see later!

Since it is Avengers season, it's the right time to buy DC toys because they will be relatively cheaper, I was looking for unique Batman toys too but most of it was already in my boxes at home. They have the whole Justice League for 500 though. Good deal for collectors.

Nostalgia was provided by Plastic Man, if you don't know what that cartoon is, ask your older parents or friends, they are going to tell you how popular these were in the 80's.

One of my favorite things to see was Slimer, made of retromutagen ooze, he still eats a lot in Ghostbuster movies.

If you're not fond of heroes, you can get Joker or Penguin. Don't worry if they provide nightmares because Batman will surely save you!

I went home with a pretty good set of keychains on my back, too bad not a lot of folks know who or what these characters represent, because if you were a gamer during my time (I felt old saying that lol) you'll love how cute these things are now while hanging on my boring black leather backpack.

Make sure you check out events in Ortigas and Co. malls like Estancia, Robinson's, or Greenhills because as soon as they put out their toys for sale, you're sure to get some pretty good bargains. 

Just look at my haul, you can't find much of that in commercialized events these days! Thanks to Estancia Mall and to the people behind this event, I got my stuff easy!

There's a BRIA for Everyone

I am not alone when I say I want to live in my own house, with my own family, and be in a community that would help them get the education, fun and experience they need. Affordable housing these days isn't as easy as it seems especially when they get you to shell out huge down payments and monthly amortization cutting an arm and a leg when you need it for other things like food and water, your everyday needs.

One of the biggest affordable housing developers in the country offers prices that go Php 1897.00 a month which makes it possible for blue collar workers, construction people, teachers, OFW's and those starting a family to get their own home in major cities of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. 

You can visit their sites and choose to live at Urdaneta Pangasinan, Paniqui Tarlac, Magalang and San Fernando Pampanga, Mariveles and Hermosa Bataan, GenTri, Trece Martires and Indang Cavite, Balayan and Lipa Batangas, Plaridel, Malolos, Sta. Maria, San Jose Del Monte and Norzagaray in Bulacan, Teresa, Binangonan and Baras Rizal, Calauan, Calamba and Sta. Cruz, Alaminos and Bay Laguna, Pili and Iriga in Camarines Sur too.

If you are from the Visayas and Mindanao area, don't fret because they also have properties available in Dumaguete City in Negros Oriental, Calbayog in Samar, Ormoc City in Leyte, Cagayan de Oro, Balingasag and Ginoog in Misamis Oriental, Manolo Fortich and Valencia in Bukidnon, Tagum, Panabo and Carmen in Davao del Norte,  Davao City and Digos in Davao del Sur, Kidapawan in North Cotabato and GenSan in South Cotabato. These are guarded and gated communities too so you know your family is safe even if you're out of the country. 

Every BRIA home comes with a community Basketball Court, Play and Recreational Areas so you can have fun even if you don't leave the place. Square footage is apt, easy to pay with bank financing or PagIbig Fund so you do have choices. 

There is indeed a BRIA for everyone! 

Aiai Endorses SIOMAI KING

Siomai King Meets Comedy Concert Queen

I’m sure you’ve seen one near you because they’re literally everywhere. One of the most reputable food brands SIOMAI KING - is still serving Filipino favorite siomai in different varieties, but this time they’re making it more special. How you guess? Well let’s just say they’re putting a face in it, in the persona of comedy concert queen Aiai Delas Alas. Yes, she’s now the face of Siomai King. The brand is under JC Worldiwide Franchise Inc. who also is involved with direct selling and other brands.

Ms. Evelyn Guarin the current Franchise Manager of Siomai King says “It has always been a pleasure to work with a celebrity that has the people believe in. We are so happy to see Ms. Aiai be part of the Siomai King brand as we continue to grow more branches in the coming years. She is also our celebrity franchisee. Having her here as our #SiomaiNgInaMo is fitting as she becomes our Siomai King partner. Welcome!”

Their Famous Chicken Siomai

Take Siomai with your friends and family

Love this!

Chicken Siomai gone in 3 minutes

Black Gulaman

Japanese Siomai

Hongkong Siomai

Ms. Aiai happily accepts the challenge and says “I actually plan to put up my own franchise in one of the SM Malls because I believe in the brand. What I like about Siomai King is that they’re not selfish, they give you your moneys worth every time because they are the first one who served 5 pcs of Siomai in one order, unlike in other brands that only serve 4 which feels so bitin. The 5th siomai is really the one that is so filling! I take my Siomai with rice because I am very Filipino, my first branch will be at Puregold Paso De Blas and I hope to have more branches soon!”

Siomai King currently serves Chicken Siomai, Hong Kong Siomai, Shanghai Siomai, Japanese Siomai served with rice and ice cold Gulaman too. The difference is, they serve 5 pieces of it instead of the usual 4 in the Philippines, so you’re assured you’re getting more for the same price. You may visit their website if you want to own one via jcfranchisinginc.com or email them at customersupport@jcfranchisinginc.com or their numbers 889-4773, 889-4774, 889-4775, 889-4776 or their mobile number 0917-852-3726. The franchise with equipment and utensils, personal training, ocular, opening and site assistance cost Php 258,888.

I want siomai now, so bad! Good thing there's about 800+ branches nationwide and they are expanding outside the country.
