It is officially December 12, which means another mega sale has just arrived. Last month, we had 11.11 on November 11 and Black Friday on November 26. But what makes 12.12 stand out is that it promises to be the biggest sale yet. Additionally, we are only a few days removed from Christmas. If any of you are procrastinating Christmas gifts for your loved ones, this huge Christmas sale may be your final chance.
With practically everything on sale, you can score bargain deals on anything you want. For instance, you may be yearning for a new pair of shoes, the latest gadget, or furniture to enhance your condo design.
So hopefully, you have set aside some cash, have topped up your e-wallet, and have some vouchers at your disposal because these are the myriad of different things you should keep your eye on (and eventually buy) this 12.12 sale.
Gadgets
It is no news that tech-related items like laptops, phones, and their respective accessories are expensive. So if you are eyeing a particular gadget, surely you have been waiting for this sale as a chance to acquire it at a discounted price.
Perhaps the downside of buying gadgets online is the threat of that gadget being fake. On social media, many netizens have shared unfortunate encounters with buying gadgets online. The predominant issue is the gadget being fake and/or broken immediately.
To avoid this, make sure you shop at the brand’s online flagship store. You will know this if they explicitly say “flagship store” or if they are verified with a check. More importantly, read the reviews to see know other people’s experience with the gadget and know what they have to say about it.
If you are moving into your brand new ready for occupancy condo, and there is not much to do because you have not really settled in yet, at least have a gadget alongside you to help your past time.
An example of a gadget accessory to purchase is the new JBL C150SI In-Ear Headphones which was P1,100 but is discounted down to P290. These earphones are available at Lazada.
School essentials
Face-to-face class is gradually making its return. But if your school either still employ online class or you would much rather attend classes online, school supplies are still a worthy investment.
Whether in front of the camera or on the desk at school, it is essential to have a pen and paper to either jot down notes or use as scratch paper.
School supplies on their own can be cheap, but since they are usually bought in large quantities, the prices begin to stack up. It is just unpractical to buy one pen or a few sheets of paper. Hence, use this sale to buy an ample amount of supplies to make most of the discount percentage and stock up for the sem.
Investing in school essentials can be ideal in the situation illustrated below.
If you are staying in a condo in Manila, and you are a student in one of the nearby universities, the school supplies are extra useful in this context. This is because you are at the convenience of being in a condo that is a few minutes away from your campus. So whether you are at your condo or at school, at least you have your supplies ready at all times.
You may be looking at some ball pens which can be bought at P5 each or some notebooks at P14 each. Take advantage of this sale by buying a lot of these at Shopee.
Clothes
When you think shopping, almost always you will bring up clothes. And in this 12.12 sale, a range of different clothes will be at the forefront of the sale. Since virtually everyone is in the mood for new clothes, that mood is most likely intensified by the 12.12 sale which makes them easier to buy.
If you have an OOTD in mind, do not just keep it in mind, buy it!
Skincare sets
Due to the pandemic, people are mostly at home. If not, they are outside with their face barely visible since it is draped with a face mask and a face shield over it. For these reasons, you may completely do away with your face care routine.
Consequently, you can use all this time at home to improve your facial appearance. When the pandemic has subsided and the masks are off, then you will be able to show off the effort you invested in skincare.
Another great thing about this grand sale is selling skincare products in bundles. Hence, it is a win-win situation for you to spend less on a bevy of skincare products to make you look and feel good.
To provide context, you live in Vista Shaw, a condo in Mandaluyong, which is situated in the heart of one of the more highly urbanized cities of Metro Manila. This means that you are within the proximity of many malls, parks, and similar high-volume public areas. So when you are at your condo, put the effort into your facial routine to stand out in these public areas.
NACIFIC sells a skincare bundle on Shopee which is originally P3,200. But because it is 12.12, you can get it at P1,400 only.
Furniture
The aforementioned products are more of a novelty. This is more practical.
Furniture is very expensive but is equally as important because a house would be empty and boring without it. Most importantly, it feels impossible to live in a house without any furniture.
So if your condo has virtually nothing, you are not satisfied with the layout of your condo, or you just want to revamp your condo living, this sale is the perfect time for that to avoid the hefty price tags attached to different types of furniture.
Since we talked about gadgets above, a computer table which is usually sold at P5,000 is now on sale at shopee at only P3,500.
Final Reminders
Even if it is called 12.12, the sale will last until the weekends so keep your phones, laptops, and tablets fully charged and keep scrolling until you find what is perfect for you.
And lastly, shop wisely you also have an option to save up for your future big investment like your own home!
