I Won Asian Secrets Gift Pack (Not Once But Twice!)

Less than half of what I've won. Still way too much
for my own personal use, I guess. :P

GeekGirlManila.com hosted a weekly raffle for the whole month of February with Asian Secrets products as prizes. Since all I had to do was fill out a form in order to enter the raffle, I tried my luck.

I've joined several raffles online (and offline) but never won, so I entered the raffle without really expecting to win to the point that I almost forgot about joining the said contest already. It may sound narcissistic but I have this habit of Googling my name sometimes when I am bored. So one evening, I randomly Googled my name and the top search result showed my name under the link to GeekGirlManila's website. I clicked the link and the next thing I knew, I was one of the five winners for  Week 1 of GeekGirlManila's Asian Secrets products giveaway! I won six tubs of lulur whitening body scrub and four bars of bengkoang soap. A total of 10. How cool was that? :)

But my luck did not end there! Aside from the weekly giveaway, GeekGirlManila also hosted a special raffle on Valentines Day, still with Asian Secrets products as prizes. I entered again but did not really expect that I'd be lucky the second time around. But yes! I won again! This time, I won another six tubs of lulur whitening body scrub and eight bars of bengkoang soap. That's a total of 14 Asian Secrets products for Valentine's Day. :D

I claimed my prizes just this morning at Bonaventure Plaza and received a total of 24 Asian Secrets products, which is way too much for my own personal use, I shared more than half to my friends in the office, both boys and girls! :D

Gift Certificates (GCs) from GLOBE

Few days ago, a Globe representative contacted and informed me of the Globe Loyalty Program, wherein Globe grants rewards, discounts, and privileges to its subscribers. In my case, she offered to give me three Sodexo GCs worth P500 each BUT in one condition: I should agree to extend my Globe WiMax subscription for another two years. Since I have no plans on having our internet connection at home cut anyway, not to mention that doing so would make my Mom and younger brother very very sad (Hello, internet junkies!), I agreed.

And guess what I received in the mail today!

P1,500 worth of Sodexo GCs from Globe!

Hmmm. I'm currently thinking on where to spend these. :D

Update:

I gave two of the three GCs to my Mom (as additional birthday and Christmas gift) and the last GC to my Ninong. :)
