VALUE-FOR-MONEY: Fish Oil Capsules at S&R ALABANG

I bought a bottle of Nature  Made 1200mg Fish Oil bottle of 200s online last month.   It was delivered to my house and I gladly paid in cash.  I knew that similar fish oil capsules sell for at least Ps 6.00 at the drugstore.  I thought I got a great deal from that online shop, until I went to S&R in Alabang today.

This  morning, after I  got the supplies and groceries  in my list  for the long weekend, I was  heading for the check out counter, when I noticed one of the gondolas  along  the shop's  center aisle.  It was an entire selection of food supplements and I saw  rows  upon rows  of Nature Made 1200mg Fish Oil bottles. I looked at the price on the shelf:  Ps 1,149.00.


I was ready to wheel by with my shopping cart when I realized that the price referred to not one but TWO bottles of Nature Made.  That translated to  just Ps 2.87 per capsule.   I snapped a photo of the price tag and the bottles.

I am still consuming the bottle of Nature Made 1200mg Fish Oil capsules  that I bought online.   In two weeks, I will be back definitely at S&R Alabang  to buy these value-for-money fish oil capsules.

VALUE-FOR-MONEY Herbal Tea: Family Mart

I have been weaning myself away  from coffee so my preference nowadays has  shifted to herbal tea. Yesterday morning, after a viewing appointment in Salcedo Village, Makati,  I decided to get  my first cup  of  tea for the day.

I parked along Carlos Palanca St. in Legaspi Village and   headed for  the Family Mart branch. I asked the cashier for green tea and I was directed to the shelf where  I picked the Camomile variant  from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.

When I  went back to the cashier, I was pleasantly surprised to be charged Ps 19.75 only. I was given a paper cup  with a lid  that was marked "UCC," to fill with hot water from the dispenser at the side of the counter.  I thought I was going to be charged for the water and that  cup, but no,  they were for free.

I walked out of the store glad   that I got my steaming cup of herbal tea for less than the  minimum street parking fee  in Makati.
