Landers now Delivers in Imus

Hi pipol! I posted my frustration on Landers before because they are not able to deliver in Imus Cavite. But as of this writing I already had 4 orders completed. Yey! Its still not safe to go outside and I'm starting to enjoy doing online grocery. 😅

              

They still offer the gas discount (7php per liter for premium / 4php per liter for diesel) if your order reached 3000 php. The coupon is valid until next year so I don't have to hurry to visit the store. Once you place your order you have option on when to cancel it, normally I would select if 50% of my purchase is not available. Based on my experience if something is not delivered it will be credited back to you in less than a week. 

My favorite part is looking for a good buy and I love browsing on their Buy 2 for the price of 1 promo. After buying the necessities I would spend my extra budget on this wahehe.

They have an app that you can download but I still prefer doing groceries online with a bigger screen. I'm looking forward to the day where me and family can visit the store again and enjoy their food (pizza, brewed coffee, ice cream , fries etc).

New Sliding Window

After our AC was installed  my husband decided to replace our jalousie window to a sliding window for better cooling. We have two windows that needs replacement, one for the sala and another one for my kids bedroom. It was installed last May 25 and viola its amazing. Each cost 3500 php. 

Before (my kids are sleeping hehe)

During the install

Yey... (Sala Window)

We rearrange their bedroom after (Kids Bedroom)

Grace Period on Loan Payment Due to ECQ or Covid 19

This pandemic caused us anxieties specially when it comes to finances. Many people lost their jobs, many business needs to close etc. This affected everyone worldwide and I know one of the thing we worry about are big loans to pay. Like for my family, we just got our car November last  year. Good thing that PSBank did give grace period to their clients. A big Thank You to PSBank.

Landers Currently Not Delivering to this Area

A few weeks ago I posted how happy I am that I was able to renew my Landers membership online with a discount. I said I would share my experience once I try it but to my disappointment I wasted money on renewal. When I was about to do a check out on my purchase I got an error message :

If only I knew that this is the case I should have not renewed by membership right away. Landers should should update their website and put a prompt for those who would like to renew or wanted to become member that some areas are not available due to Covid 19. It was deceiving I would say because if you would click on delivery areas on their page all locations are active. Just like my suggestion, please update your website. 

I send an email message to them about my concern but the person who replied to my email I think just use email template without even understanding my inquiry. I love Landers (though I cannot deny my disappointment), and definitely I would still visit their store once this pandemic is over. I just hope that they would improve their website and online customer service. Ciao!

Chevrolet Sail PMS Cost

Good morning pipol! Its been 6 months since we got "Third." You're right we give him that name because its our 3rd car. The first two are 2nd hand Mazda 323 that served us really well. Amazingly this new car was released on my husband's birthday last year. Supposedly it should be on  my birthday but due to uncontrollable circumstances it was delayed and was released the following day. Yeah, our birthday is next to each other so I still consider it as a birthday gift for both of us. God is truly amazing and I'm really thankful for this blessing. I never thought we would have a new car right away. 

 Meet "Third" our new buddy

Chevrolet Sail 1.3 MT

Anyways having a brand new car is truly exciting but just like what they said maintenance is part of it. For Chevy, first PMS is on the 6th month or when you reach 10,000 KM whichever comes first. Our dealer is Chevrolet Alabang but because of Covid 19 pandemic its hard to travel from Cavite to Alabang due to quarantine. We decided to have our PMS in Chevrolet Imus. It was my husband who went there and he said approximately it took 3 hrs. The cost is 7500 php, meow. I find it too high but we don't want the 3 yrs warranty to be voided. Below are what is included.

We are thinking of getting a bigger vehicle after this, maybe an SUV, by God's grace. This expensive PMS cost of Chevy let's me think of switching to other brand, maybe the most common one Toyota. If you have any suggestion , please free to share. Ciao!!

Matrix Split Type Inverter Aircon Review

The temperature this summer of 2020 is really sizzling. With the ECQ (Enhanced Community Quarantine) still on going, we are always at home and its really uncomfortable. Though we have electric fans facing directly to us, it still not enough to fight the heat.  

Good thing a friend of mine knows someone who sells and service AC. Supposedly we are to order Kolin brand which is the same AC my friend got but its out of stock. They called us and mention about Matrix. I've never heard of this brand so I'm somehow undecided. After some googling I found out that its made in China and is related to Midea AC. Because of the daily struggle with the temperate we cannot wait and decided to go with this Matrix brand and took the risk.

Unit Outside our House

The model that we got is the Matrix MX-FDC32. It's a 1.5HP split type unit with Full DC Inverter. They said this consume less power (well I cannot tell not until we get our electric bill) compare to basic split type inverter . This was installed only two days ago and so far I'm loving it. The only hassle we have is that there was a water leak the first time we used it. After checking, it is because the pipe is somehow inclined incorrectly. Hope this unit will last, I'll share to you guys next time we have our first cleaning or if we encounter any other issue.

Braun Epilator Review

I got my Braun epilator 2 years ago, if I'm not mistaken around April of 2018. A friend of mine in the office recommended using this instead of going somewhere for hair removal. I've tried shaving and other waxing brands but I would say this is what I love the most. Its very handy and easy to use, just need to have electricity. I use it for both my legs and under arms.

       I remember the first time I use it in my under arms, I ask my husband to do it for me and I ended with rashes, awww. It is because he pressed it too       hard. There's no pressure needed, as long as the tiny tweezers can reach the hair that would be good enough. Once you have it , you don't need to  schedule an appointment at the waxing salon, you can use it anytime of the day at home. This is worth an investment, I think I bought this around 3k php.

How to Renew Landers Membership Online

Good day pipol! It's almost two months since the ECQ (Enhanced Commmunity Quarantine) started due to COVID19. While I'm doing payment online I remember I have a blog page I haven't touched for years. So here I am, not sure though if I can be active like before when I started this page. Let's see.

Today let me share with you how I renewed my Landers membership online. It expired March 2020 but due to ECQ we are unable to visit Landers Store. Me and my family miss their pizza, french fries, ice cream etc. I also miss roaming around looking for good find (cheap but valuable hehe).

If you're already a member of Landers, you can register your card at https://www.landers.ph/. You can also shop online which I haven't tried. Today I saw that they actually offer a discount of 200php if I renew my card, yey.

Once your logged in, on top of the page you will see "Apply membership".

Once you clicked it you will see the picture above where it shows 600php for either New or Renewal. Simply click renew and you have an option to pay using Paymaya or a Debit Card / Mastercard / Visa. As simple as that. 1 year starts from the day I renewed my card which is nice. Next time I'll try to purchase online and share my experience. Ciao!

Facial Wash, Toner and Moisturizer

Here's my new beauty regimen. A friend of mine in the office showed me brochure of Human Nature and decided to buy Nourishing Facial Wash and Face Toner. I use it along with Nivea Creme Moisturizer. I've been using this for a week now and my mom noticed the change in my skin :-). Before going to work I wash my face with facial wash and then put toner on. After the toner is dry I put Nivea and put my make up on after a few minutes. I also do this after work before going to bed. I will definitely continue doing this routine. I guess it doesn't matter which brand you use, just get the one you trust. This skincare routine is definitely effective.

Shawn Nassaney Award - Q3 2016

Every quarter Schneider Electric recognize leader who did an exemplary work and they give this award called Shawn Nassaney. I was blessed for my hard work and dedication being recognized by the management and it really makes me feel valued as an employee. 

It was Q3 of 2016 that I won this award. I've been with the company for almost 9 years and this is the first time I got a trophy. I'm planning to display this on my station and I'm looking forward for more fruitful years with Schneider. 

To God be all the glory!
