It’s been a while since I visited your blog, so I’m so sorry to miss all the excitement about your awesome endeavor.

I don’t know if it’s a little too late for this, but I’d like to offer our help. I’m starting up a personal shopping service catering to overseas Filipinos and other folks with ties to the Philippines. If your overseas blog visitors would like to purchase items to support your cause, our Metro Manila reps can handle it for them and arrange to have it delivered to them or to any preferred recipient. No service charge, we’ll just work out a reasonable shipping fee.

Let me know if there’s an interest in this offer.

Thanks for arranging another pick up MM. My friend has kindly offered to go there for me. I also reserved several little brown books and boy am I glad I did it early! Happy holidays! Maybe I’ll see you around in Manila while food tripping and visiting the Salcedo market.. I am intently memorizing your facial features now as I write this… kidding!

Good to know that the sizes are in american size, hopefully the size L that my brother got for us will fit my XL hubby. My mum’s enjoying her tote bag as well… Thank you MM for letting us take part in your project.

to sometime_lurker, I, too have bad direction, but I figured out where the place is. Does your pick-up person know where the overpass towards Magallanes from Edsa is? Underneath the overpass, there’s a street that leads you left towards Pasong Tamo Extension. You’ll find yourself driving past factories like Levi Strauss, pharma co’s like Glaxo, and a lot of car outlets like Toyota, Suzuki and BMW. Eventually you’ll see a Petron gas station on the right hand side and a compound next to it. Just carefully drive down the road looking for the gate, it’s very close. There are signs for Esteban School, Nutrition Center (one tricycle I asked for help knew the place as the Nutrition Center). Ask the guard at the gate for PCPD and you will be pointed towards a low flung building ahead. I texted mae and she said she’ll be there till 3 tomorrow so you and your pickup pax have time to explore (think adventure! think totes and tees at the end of the hunt!).

I think my order did not make it to the cut-off so I’m one of those who are hoping there’ll be extra Little Brown Books left unclaimed.. hehe..

Mr. MM, would you be present on Dec08 pick-up date? I wasn’t able to ask you & Mrs. MM to sign the 2 tote bags when I went to S&R.. nahiya ako bigla and my mind just turned blank that time. :)

I’m so sorry. I soooo want to help (and that tote, or shirt), but the person to pick it up for me, he just doesn’t get the place. He is lost. My old man is not good with this.

Poor me and kiddos.

Please don’t send Silly Lolo’s curse my way. I really tried.

bedazzle, before getting to pasong tamo (chino roces) stay on the right side of edsa and do not go on the OVERPASS. Find the rightmost side land and go under the overpass and curve left naturally with the traffic. When you are on the other side of EDSA, turn right onto Pasong Tamo extension and head towards Taguig and follow instructions as above… It’s a bit tricky if you aren’t familiar with this intersection and the buses can be a pain in the ass, but once you make it to Pasong Tamo, you will be fine. Alternatively, you can go on C5, exit at Fort Bonifacio and head on the main road towards the new airport. As soon as you exit Fort bonicaio and BEFORE the South Superhighway, turn right onto Pasong Tamo (chino roces) extension and the building will be about 150 meters away, on your left. There is a guardpost at the gate. Good luck!

suzette, yes, you may go to one of the pick up points and ask to exchange your shirts for a smaller size, but get there early as you may run out of choices…
