My 12.12 shopping experience at SM City Masinag

I arrived 10:30am just as SM City Masinag opened its doors to the public on a Sunday morning. While many are on their phones checking on the biggest sales in shopping apps, I went a little extra by checking items myself at the mall. Of course I had extra precautions as we're still in a pandemic so I wore double masks while shopping.


With only P2000 budget, I really prioritized what's needed at home. I got in Ace Hardware to get some wheels and screws for our new cabinet. I also got an LED light for a room and some super glue. Checkin out with only around P600-700, I still have a lot to buy.

Then I want something to give to my mom for her birthday and Christmas. Combining these two occasions really require something special. She's not fond of bags but I got a very nice one for her. She loves her new Belladona bag which I got from The SM Store and she's ready to use it over the holidays.

I went to Watsons and found these at Buy 1 Take 1. We always use this liquid hand soap at home and we always ensure to wash our hands to be safe from viruses and bacteria. This is only P180 for a pair and I think it's sulit. The color is also trendy with this year's Color of the Year -- Very Peri!


As I stroll around, I found this cute kiosk of fashionable face masks. Penaflorida Atelier really creates stylish masks which you can wear in any occasion. Check out their booth at the 3rd floor of SM City Masinag.



I'd like to go around some more in Surplus, Miniso, SM Appliance, SM Supermarket, Pet Express, and Adidas, but I decided to take a bite at Classic Savory for a bit and rest.

Whatever you do or whatever you need, SM City Masinag really has it all. For your loved ones, for your pets, for your home or even for yourself, you can get your hands on amazing finds and amazing gift ideas this Christmas. It's truly #ChristmaSayaAtSM!
