September Shopfest Philippines 2008
Yesterday, at the mall, I was surprised to see a poster announcing September Shopfest Philippines 2008, a shopping festival involving multiple malls. It is organized by the Department of Tourism and promises discounts in your favorite stores up to 70%.
I wonder if it will attract as many tourists as The Great Singapore Sale or the Hong Kong Shopping Festival. Or if it will draw the tourists away from Greenhills or Carriedo and into the malls. The few medical tourists I've spoken to swear by those places.
The fest starts tomorrow. Let's see what happens.

wow... this is the first time i've heard of this too... thanks for sharing... :)
Mikky, they have a full page ad in the papers today. Greenhills Shopping center is included. I wonder what the stand is regarding items violating copyright.
oh dear,you have a point there... btw, thanks for sharing that truffettes de france is available at shangrila... haven't been there for quite some time... :)
Cool! Thanks for sharing. Even if they can't match the Great Singapore Sale, I hope they come close to it. Especially on the discounts. :)
hopefully the participating outlets really stay true to their claim of going on sale. and hopefully the items they put on sale are good and not just some of their old unsold stuff.
thanks for the tip. will forward to this :)
MerryCherry, MD, even American Eye Center is part of the project. I didn't see sales yesterday at the mall comparable to GSS.
Cookie, hope so too.
