For kids, wandering around Wilcon while parents shop for bathroom fixtures and other household…read moreneeds is super fun! Haha. It's a huge store, so there's all sorts of stuff to look at and keep boredom at bay, like giant shiny jacuzzis and model kitchen units. Now that I'm older, recently my dad asked me to come with him to help shop for pipes and stuff for the extension we're building for our house. He's getting older too, and needs an assistant. So on my last visit, I was able to appreciate how completely stocked Wilcon is. Tiles, bathroom stuff, kitchen stuff, garden tools, locks, even pet supplies, it's all under one roof. It's the ultimate in convenience among hardware stores.

The thing about building a house is that saving time is as important as buying the right materials,…read morechoosing the right contractor and having the right design. The more time you lose, the more money you spend. This is why it's important that you choose a hardware store that has everything in it. You don't want to run around and drive to so many places just because one doesn't have a specific pipe and vice versa. You're better off at settling in 1 store where you can keep your sanity intact and your gas tank right above low. So where is this hardware that promises to give these things? It's the Wilcon Depot at Filinvest City in Alabang. My brother-in-law swears by it, and believe me he is the most anal person when it comes to these things. I came here yesterday to help him buy locks and other things for his almost finished house and it took us a few minutes to find everything we need. I would have loved to walk around more because of the nice tile selection inside but we didn't have a lot of time. So, if you're building a home or perpetually fixing an old house (like me) AND you live in the South, come to this branch and make it your home base.

Another veteran of Alabang town Center. As I mentioned in one of my reviews, I often found myself…read morespending a lot of time in Time Zone playing video games on arcade machines. I knew this store not by name, but simply by the furniture that they sold. I never really paid it any sort of attention. I'm surprised that it's still there. I mean, it's not like you see a furniture store always jam packed with people right? But I guess in a way that just goes to show a certain lesson. That sometimes, a successful business doesn't always have to be the one that draws in a big crowd. Some businesses might not draw a huge crowd, but are nevertheless capable of drawing a huge profit. And that is probably why it's still standing there today. I actually never thought I'd live to see a day that I'm happy to see that a furniture store that's been there for the longest time is still there.

Ever since I was young, a teenager to be more precise, I ahve always been fascinated with…read moretechnology, specifically consumer electronics. Television is by extension, one of the most fascinating pieces of technology I've read about. When I was young, my sisters would spend most of their time looking at clothes or shoes. I for one spent most of my time looking at Televisions at Automatic Center. This is because Automatic Center was one of the few places that would constantly update their line up of products with some of the newest models available. It's a spectacle to behold all those televisions playing videos on a loop. With each new generation of TV tech I found myself in awe over these things that would often be out of my reach given the price. I always thought that this must be how rich people watch TV.

I sued to pass by this place a lot when I was a kid. I don't really pay much attention since I…read morenever really appreciated fine furniture before. Play & Display sells furniture, tables, table sets and the like. You can already get a picture in your head as to the kind of market that they're trying to tap into. What I do like about this place is that their merchandise looks solid, but also expensive. I haven't bought furniture before, but I can already tell that the products that they put on sale are the type of things that would do well in a modern home. They look nice and they don't look fragile either. They come in marvelous designs that I'm sure the ladies will love mixing and matching with their home. So if you're in the market for new furniture or what not, try and stop by to give this place a try. You might just enjoy and like what you see in there.

You know you're getting old when you start buying things from places that have the words "Save" and…read more"Surplus" on their name. Can't be a bad thing really because saving money is cool and responsible (and insanely difficult if you are me haha...)! Though, if you really want some cheap stuff for your house/apartment/humble abode of choice, do check out Save on Surplus for some really great deals. They mostly sell appliances, furniture, sports gear, electronics, and whole lot of other things imported from the US. If you're looking for affordable, vinyl players, they have this brand called Dick Smith (not the best name out there, I know). They have a great selection of affordable kitchen appliances for just about everything. If you're the outdoorsy type, they have a lot of sports gear such as balls, outfits, and even camping gear. I personally think that they do offer great deals on most of their items, you just have to choose 'em well and make sure you consider quality (not all will be brand spanking new) and for electronics, consider voltage requirements and warranty.

Each project was a painful, excruciating experience. Trips to Wilcon at odd hours while juggling a day job, dealing with carpenters and their demands, balancing costs and living temporarily with the smell of cement and chemicals wafting in the air. All these things would have been much worse without the help of Wilcon. I think I go to Wilcon more than any other store in the Philippines. I feel like an adult whenever I am there and because it has really good fixtures and furnishings inside, I never get bored when walking around its halls. Every walk is pleasurable and every purchase reasonable. Tips: 1. If you want customized color for your walls ie aquamarine, you can have them mix it for you. 2. Come early and avoid the crowds. 3. Always keep your receipts. 4. Take your time looking at their selection of tiles.

When I still living abroad with my husband, there were only two places I'd go to if I needed…read moresomething for the house - Ikea and Daiso (yes, imagine how our tiny home looked like). Now that I'm back home, I don't have the need to go to Daiso that much, but when I do, I always end up buying a lot. They have EVERYTHING here! From stationery, to home decor, toys, cleaning products, even food! My dad found some barley tea here and I have a friend who recently went to Hong Kong and forgot to buy treats for some of his relatives while he was there. Guess where he ends up buying chocolates? Not one of his aunts suspected a thing! My favorite finds would be the organizers (for every OC person out there) and the baking supplies. They're all so cute and so cheap. Okay, for Daiso fans like me, they have a new branch in Robinsons Las Pinas. And it's big. The best part is, people haven't really discovered it yet so we have less competition for our kawaii finds.

A few years ago, my sister and I bought practically all of our home items from Daiso when we moved into an apartment. There are times I would really enter Daiso just to look around and see what I could buy. Yes, a bit of an impulse buyer here. Anyway, I was glad to find a big Daiso store at the newly opened Robinson's Place Las Piñas, mostly because I knew I no longer have to go all the way to Glorietta in Makati or Market Market at Bonifacio Global City to score god deals for random things I need like kitchen items, things for the bathroom or bedroom, even school supplies! I particularly found it nice that they had more than the usual attendants going around, refilling stocks and assisting customers one aisle after the other.

When I was younger, I thought "when I start living on my own, I will buy all my furniture here"…read more Reality check: It's 2015, and I've been living on my own for almost three years, and honestly, I don't even have proper furniture! I have a table from Ace hardware, a shelf from SM Hypermarket, and hand-me down stuff that my family gave me out of pity. I do know I've made it in life when I actually have something 10 times bigger than the picture frames and cool knick-knacks I've purchased here through the years. Back when these chain of Dimensione stores were new to malls, everyone ooh'd and ahh'd over contemporary and minimalist furniture, as if the whole Philippines never new it existed. Pieces in Dimensione are classy, tasteful, and well-curated. It has consistently made its vision apparent in all the pieces they sell in their stores, and I do think that this chain of stores were actually the purveyor of modern interior design locally...well at least in the mainstream society. Personally, I love everything here, and even if you're not buying furniture, there are still reasons to check this place out as they have a lot of interesting and modern home decor and gift items (check out their Umbro stuff!).
