My Top 3 Picks on GrabFood Signatures

Posted on August 5, 2021August 5, 2021 by The Prudent Mama

When I was a kid, I would play pretend that food will magically appear just by snapping my fingers. 😅 Who would have thought that now, just with a few taps on our phone we can have access to restos and have it delivered right by our doorstep? I’m so thankful for food delivery services like GrabFood for this convenience!

Gone are the days when I need to allot time to physically go to the resto to satisfy my cravings. Grab has added more options for us when they came up with GrabFood Signatures.

GrabFood Signatures program, which was launched April 2021, features a wide range of partner-merchants consumers can only avail with GrabFood. Since then, GrabFood Signatures has not only allowed Filipinos to easily grab their everyday cravings but has also provided exciting deals and discounts as well.

*Exciting deals and discounts only with GrabFood Signatures*

Since the program was launched, I’ve been getting good deals from my favorite restos. Let me share with you some of my favorites.

It took me a while to come up with this list. It’s really hard to choose because there’s a loooot of them that I love but here’s my TOP 3 GrabFood Signatures Merchants (in no particular order) 😉

1. Lola Nena’s
Their Triple Cheese Donuts is really a must-try! You can eat it just the way it is or toast it until it’s sugar coating caramelizes and cheese oozes out, take your pick. I recommended this to my mom and she’s been a fan ever since. Whenever she’d like to give food as pasalubong to her amigas or doctors, she would ask me to order Lola Nena’s donuts and toasted siopao for her via GrabFood.

Triple Cheese Donuts, Toasted Siopao, Pansit Palabok from Lola Nena's available via GrabFood Signatures — *Triple Cheese Donuts, Toasted Siopao, Pansit Palabok from Lola Nena’s available via GrabFood Signatures*

2. Andok’s
I have yet to try their Litson Baka and we’ve been wanting to taste it soon. Andok’s is one of my favorites ever since I was a kid. My dad always buys Litson Manok as pasalubong every payday or whenever we have a special occasion at home. It’s also our go-to ulam whenever I don’t have time to cook for the fam. Did you know they also have Boneless Inihaw na Bangus on their menu?

Andok's Litson Manok — *Andok’s Litson Manok*

3. Starbucks
I can’t start my day without coffee. There are days when I would crave for an Iced Caramel Macchiato in the morning and I love how I can get my coffee fix ASAP thru GrabFood Signatures.

*Have your coffee delivered from Starbucks via GrabFood Signatures*

There you go that’s my list. You can check out the GrabFood Signatures resto near you via the Grab app. Go ahead, don’t be shy, order now! 😊

Dole’s Sun-Powered Promo Ends with the Biggest Pachinko Game in the World

Posted on July 30, 2021 by The Prudent Mama

MANILA, Philippines – Did you catch Dole & Seasons Plantation Pachinko grand raffle draw? Php 1 million for the taking in a draw that’s larger than life! The Plantation Pachinko aired live on the official Dole PH Facebook page last July 27.

For the past 2 months, Dole and Seasons have been bringing #SunshineForAll by giving away daily cash prizes to lucky Filipinos who entered the first-ever sun-powered promo, ‘Araw Araw Base sa Sikat ng Araw.’

Winners took home up to Php 40,000 every day, depending on the sunshine level at the Dole plantation in Polomok, South Cotabato. It was a battle for the brightest sun power! However, the excitement didn’t end there: Dole and Seasons gave one lucky winner Php 1 million in the Plantation Pachinko grand draw!

But this Pachinko isn’t like any that you’ve seen before.

The big finale culminated in what could be the world’s largest Pachinko board, set in Dole’s Pineapple Plantation in Polomolok, South Cotabato.

The event was hosted by Robi Domingo, Gretchen Fullido, and Karl Jingco. All entries from the first leg of the promo were eligible to win the grand prize. The mechanics were simple – if your unique number matches the winning combination as played and as featured in the giant Dole Pachinko, you win!

Living in these times of uncertainty, Dole is armed with the purpose of brightening the Filipino people’s lives with exciting and innovative promos that have never been done before – a first in the Philippines! All while reminding Filipinos that health is ultimately wealth, with Dole and Seasons’ nutritiously delicious products made from naturally-grown fresh fruits, nourished by the sun.

“We are truly grateful to all our ‘iDoles’ who participated in this promo. It is through your support that we are able to truly spread Sunshine For All. Just like how the power of the sun nourishes Dole’s pineapples, you made all these happen — you all are our sunshine who made this achievement sweeter!” said Je Diana, Dole’s Corporate Communications Officer.

The winning entry of the Plantation Pachinko roll was lucky number, 3335922.

”As part of our fulfillment of our Dole promises, we are committed to creating shared value to all our stakeholders through access to nutrition. We will continue to work hard to spread Sunshine For All by making nutritious products available to different walks of life. We are driven by our purpose — to make this world a better place for the next generation one step at a time,” added Diana.

Lucky Pinoys Win Up to Php 40,000 Daily in Dole’s Sun-Powered Promo

Posted on July 6, 2021 by The Prudent Mama

MANILA, Philippines – Dole and Seasons kicked off their ‘Cash Prizes Araw-Araw Base sa Sikat ng Araw’ promo last May 25, and many daily winners are already enjoying their prizes!

The lucky winner of Php 17,200 is Diana Non, from Taguig City. She chanced upon the promo after being a long-time follower of Dole on Facebook.

“ Napanood ko yung live ni Gretchen & Robi, pinakinggan ko ang mechanics and super na-excite ako talaga. Kaya bumili agad ako ng Dole Pineapple Juice para makasali,” she said.

(“I caught Gretchen & Robi’s livestream, so I listened to the mechanics and it got me really excited. That’s why after watching the live show, I immediately purchased Dole Pineapple Juice to join,” she said.)

Non expressed her gratitude, as the money had been life-changing saying, “Sobrang laking tulong ito sa akin at sa aking pamilya, lalo na sa panahon na ito na mahirap ang hanapbuhay dahil sa pandemya. Sobrang natuwa ako kasi may tindahan ako na kakasimula lang nung January, yung perang napanalunan ko ay dinagdag ko sa puhunan ko.”

(“This is a big help for my me and my family, especially at a time like this with the pandemic making it harder for us to make ends meet. I was really happy since I just opened up a store last January, and I added my winnings to my investment.”)

There is so much uncertainty in these times as the pandemic continues to drastically change the lives of many. Dole is committed to bringing #SunshineForAll, giving everyone the chance to win in this promo.

The odds were in favor of Ryan Jay Olpot, who took home Php 12,800. Unfortunately, Olpot is one of the millions of Filipinos who had lost their jobs to COVID-19.

“Sumali ako since nawalan ako ng work. At syempre matagal na akong bumibili ng Dole Pineapple Juice dahil bukod sa mas mura ay unsweetened siya which is healthier. Malaki ang naitulong sa amin since need ko talaga ng pambayad ng mga bills. Nakabili ako ng pagkain at mga gamot,” he shared.

(“I joined because I was out of work. And of course, I’ve been a long-time drinker of Dole Pineapple Juice, as it’s not only cheap but it’s also unsweetened which makes it healthier. The prize money was a big help for us, since we still need to pay bills even after I lost my job. I was also able to buy food and medicine,” he shared.)

*Ryan Jay Olpot took home P12,800 with Dole & Season’s* **‘Cash Prizes Araw-Araw Base sa Sikat ng Araw’ promo**

GOMO, Is It Really THE Game Changer?

Posted on April 22, 2021April 22, 2021 by The Prudent Mama

Last October, we moved outside of Metro Manila. It didn’t cross my mind that we’re going to have any issues applying for internet service. Kasi nga when we did an ocular visit we saw naman there’s PLDT sa poste. Hahaha!

After months of applying and getting denied by PLDT Home, we gave up. Their reason is walang slot. Meh. Maybe you have also seen me on their comment section pleading them to have mercy on this momma who:
A. has kids na nag-oonline classes
B. has a husband who works online and
C. needs to keep her sanity by watching Netflix/Tulflix series. 🤣

So we opted to use Smart and Globe prepaid. The problem is, it’s not reliable especially during the day. We switch to whichever service is working. Trial and error lagi ang peg namin.

And here comes GOMO, the game changer but I call them the life saver! The newest Telco company here in the PH. With their unlimited plan offer we don’t need to keep track of our usage anymore. For only P499*, we get unlimited data, calls, and texts for 30 days.

Got our GOMO simcard last March 24 (cropped the address part)

For the speed, I know you’re curious about that, I usually get 4-5mbps during the day & 10mbps up at night (since the kids are already sleeping hahaha!) BUT before that when we first purchased our GOMO simcard around March, we get 30-40mbps during the wee hours of the morning. Hindi na masama!

Some infos I would like to share too:
• Gomo’s Unli Plan is temporary, pasulpot sulpot lang siya. So follow them on their Facebook page para updated ka when will be the next sale.
• The simcard costs P299 with 30GB of data (until April 30 only). The regular plan is P299, 30GB NO EXPIRY.
• It’s 5G & LTE ready!
• Speed is capped na unlike before pero we don’t have any issues kahit sabay pa ang online classes (Zoom on iPad) and video streaming (Netflix/YouTube on Samsung STV).

For more information, check out this link: https://www.gomo.ph/faq.html

I can’t give feedback yet regarding the call and text service since we are only using our GOMO simcard for data. In case you’re wondering, we have set up our simcard in our Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi.

If you want to try GOMO, you can purchase their simcard online at http://www.gomo.ph, Lazada or Shopee. It’s also available thru the following partner merchants:
Puregold, SM, 7-Eleven, Mini Stop, Silicon Valley, & MemoXpress. We purchased ours online pa last March. It’s more accessible now.

*GOMO SIM available at Puregold, SM, 7-Eleven, Mini Stop, Silicon Valley, MemoXpress and Shopee*

Are you also using the services of GOMO? Let me hear about your experience by leaving a comment below.

*Unli data with max speed of up to 5mbps, Unli calls to GOMO, Globe, TM, & Cherry Mobile numbers, Unli All-Net texts.
