Where to Find Discounted and Toys on Sale in Lazada?
Christmas is fast approaching! We know times are hard and this is why we'd like to share with you our little secret - Where to Find Discounted and Toys on Sale in Lazada?
For someone who tries to save money and still wants to continue with the traditions (a.k.a gift-giving), shopping early and taking advantage of the sale events is a good idea. After all, every penny counts.
Thus, if you have the funds available, go ahead and start your Christmas shopping now.
Anyway, I am going to share with you the list of toy stores where you can find discounted and sale toy items. Don't worry! Most of them are LazMall stores so authenticity is guaranteed. :)
1. Toy Town - They have been in the toy retail business for more than 30 years and they carry a wide variety of brands such as Little Tikes, Tomica, Lego, Funko Pops, etc. I believe that they are also the distributors of the major toy stores in the mall since the promotions are exactly the same as the ones they have.
Their Christmas sale will start on September 9 and toys are on sale for as low as 75-90% off.

Online Shopping for School Supplies in Bacolod
It's back to school!
Despite the health crisis, our life goes on, and little did we notice that another school year is about to start. Actually, some private schools have already started a few weeks ago. :)
Now, you can order from your nearest National Bookstore branch and don't have to worry about shipping fees.
Currently, we have three (3) NBS branches here in Bacolod. I have actually tried ordering from all of the three branches and so far, I am very happy with their service.
So just pick one that is nearest to you. One thing that I noticed is that stocks vary per branch so if you need something specific and it's not available. You may ask assistance to have it checked if it's available in other branches.
How does this work?
1. Contact your preferred NBS branches via SMS/Call or Viber. Personally, I prefer Viber since they have an option to send photos which makes shopping easier.
NBS Gaisano Singcang - 09151102467 /09154212202
NBS Robinsons Place - 09154212204 or 09282225078
NBS SM City - 0927-515-6720
2. Once you have a personal shopper assisting you, just tell him/her what you need. You can even ask for recommendations or even what's on sale. :)
3. Pay for order - NBS has lots of payment options available. You can pay via Cash, Debit/ Credit Card, GCASH, Globe Rewards, Shopee Pay, and even Bank Transfer.
4. Pick-up - Once you have finalized and paid for your order, you pick it up yourself or just simply schedule a pick-up with a 3rd party courier.
We usually use Grab Express for pick-ups. I highly suggest that you use their 2-hour delivery service since it's super cheap - they offer a flat rate of Php 59 delivery fee anywhere within Bacolod City. Please do note that this service is only available until 3PM.
That's it for now! If you have any questions or have tried ordering from NBS, feel free to comment down below. :)
