Now us Hymenopteras (that's what we call ourselves) were buzzing inside our office beehives soon after the Queen Bee "J" dropped all the news about - We're all going to get 3 days off to go to The Off Price Show at the World Trade Center in a Pasay City on September 28 - 30, 2012!
It is very exciting for us busy geeky bees because it is all about our favorite topic -
SHOPPING!!! It is our therapy as our jobs are definitely not easy. Lately, we haven't had a break at all... must have been 2 months already that we work even on Sundays. Looking at all our personal mobile phones and gadgets here in the office is a tell-tale sign that we really work hard for the best things in life! Really! But gadget-shopping is nothing in comparison to
lifestyle brand shopping!
The Off Price Show event is not just like your mere bazaars, tiyange sale or whatsover where you'd be lucky to find originals on lifestyle brands because all you will ever find are export overruns, Triple-A's, Quadruple A's and stuff!
This is an event participated by companies handling famous lifestyle brands like Ikea, H&M, Crocs, Bershka, Pull & Bear, Pacsafe, Melissa, Grid-It!, Hellolulu, Brooks, Tommy Hilfiger, Sketchers, Melissa and so many more that you will find on
The Off Price Show Facebook Page! This is actually dubbed as "the biggest show on earth" that started in US, then spreading like wildfire in Europe and now in Asia specifically, the Philippines.
The Off Price Show is a retail shopping experience where we could get all items up to 80% OFF! OMFG!
80% OFF which means, this is the biggest show in Manila indeed!
Our Queen Bee told us that the 3 days at The Off Price Show will be a fun break for all us considering she will be releasing our bonus early (what a boss, right?)! We were told there will be Raffle Draws where participating brands will be raffling off some of their wares at certain periods of time plus BDO credit card throwing a couple of eco-bags plus Rogue Magazine will award yearly subscriptions! Fantabulous!
But 3 days??? We thought of going broke and then we thought of hunger games from the Queen Bee. She said not to worry as there will be a "FOOD CENTER" with CIBO to provide show nutrients to shoppers aside from the organizers having their own food station! Now that takes care of our gastronomic worries! CIBO Spaghettini alla Margherita and oh their Porkloin - nom nom nom nom nom!!!
We were also told about activities going on every day during the shopping sale period like the "STYLISTA" competition where five of Manila's hottest stylistas will show visitors how to dress and impress. Their works will be featured in a special area of the shopping tent! We were like okay and slightly rolled our eyes as shopping would be more interesting for us!
Then the Queen Bee finally dropped the highlight of the show that sent our private parts excited! OMG! There will be a series of 5 "FASHION SHOWS" by the Fashion Academy Manila with Elite Models during the 3 days shopping event! Mmmmm... Hot models walking down the ramp showcasing different merchandising from participating brands! Are we going to find them male models walking in BeckhamforH&M's? I guess we will have to find that one out!
Save the dates! It's September 28-30, 2012
Where? The World Trade Center tent, Pasay City, Philippines
Show Hours: 10am - 10pm
So save up that money you have for the best shopping experience ever!
