For several months I have been wanting to buy a running or training shoes that I can use when I exercise at home. I have been so lax with exercise for about three months now and I am gaining weight again.

I don't want to go back to weighing more than 60 kilos. It does not feel healthy, and as I grow older (I'm at my early thirties now), taking care of my health by having enough exercise and a good diet is a must.

So after a few months of thinking it through, I finally decided to buy the shoe I was eyeing at Zalora.com.ph.

This was the shoes that I wanted.

I ordered it on May 28 and received the parcel on June 2. But the parcel arrived in General Santos on May 31 and they were contacting me for three days. Unfortunately, my cellphone is not working for almost three days as well. Luckily they were still able to locate our house. So the parcel was actually available within 3 days, not bad eh?

So here is how my parcel looked like when it arrived.

 

The parcel includes the order form/receipt and an order return slip, in case there are defects or the size does not fit and your want to return the item.

And here is what I got inside the parcel.

And it is just pure love.

Overall, I give Zalora 5 stars for the fast delivery, their packaging and the quality of the item delivered. I am now looking forward to more future purchases with them.

They say "Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world." The right shoes does not need to be expensive because it is the girl wearing the shoes that matters. However, whatever the price tag is, women's love for shoes is definitely undeniable.

But what if buying shoes would be a great financial strain? Then you should look for shoes that feels right, looks right and fits right on your budget.

Can you still find good shoes even when you have a tight budget? Of course you can. Here I will share with you where to find great deals on shoes for women and children here in General Santos City.

I am a lover of reading. Reading online and offline materials is an everyday task for me. And this habit of reading is something that I want to instill in my children early on. So I make it a habit to buy books every week so that my eldest child who is four as of this writing will have a new book to read each week.

So I like to explore book shops especially the Book Sale shop in KCC for cheap books. Here are some of the books I bought for about 20 to 35 pesos each.

Every kid loves to play at playhouses, even those who are kids at heart can have fun playing there too. As a mom of two girls, I am in constant search of things that would please them and make them happy. And oh how they love to play inside a play house. Most probably because they have lots of toys to feast on and have lots of activities to do inside. And because they are both girls, they love dolls and doll houses and dress up like princesses.

So in search for the best playhouse for my kids, I tried all the mall play houses in General Santos City, where we live. We tried three but we will also be enumerating play houses which you should also check out.

There are a lot of shoe sales this month of March. I am the one who like to grab the sale but only when I really need to buy an item. This time, I am in need of a good pair of shoes and I was lucky that this month of March there are lots of shoe sale in different malls in Gensan.

This Sunday, March 9 I had the opportunity to shop with my little girl, after going to our church service and here are my great finds.
