Earn as much as Php 250 Cashback with PayMaya

 

 

Quick blog to tell you about this because it's almost end of February and you might miss this deal.

You see, I've been using PayMaya to pay for groceries if I'm in Robinsons Supermarket, Shopwise or Mercury Drug when I'm out for errands. I usually use the QR code payment system so I don't have to cash out large sums of money from my bank which by the way is so far away from my place. Recently, PayMaya announced a sweet deal so you can cash out Php 50 when you pay for Php 1000 worth of groceries.... and you can do it 5 times. You may check out http://pymy.co/FebGroceryQRCashback for the list of establishments participating in this promo.

See? I always take advantage of cashbacks in Paymaya :D

Again, it's only going to be until the 28th of February so you've got a few days left to get it. I've divided my purchases in different dates and done groceries in Mercury Drug and Robinsons Supermarket so I can get the max cashback. If you remember, I have had Php 1,600 worth of cashback last year, which I'm sure is easy to beat this 2021. Don't tell me I didn't tell you huh!

Go get them before it's too late!

NBA and Smart Launch Official Local Site

 

Love of basketball is something that is innate with Filipinos. The number one sport in the country now has had a welcome addition to information, much closer to home than you think.

The number one league in the world NBA just partnered with Smart Communications to put up NBA.com/Philippines to make all the information you love about the sport, be all in one place. From what I understand too is that they're making this website contain not just game highlights, stats, standings, scores, schedules, but will be including articles from the best of the best Sports icons, personalities, writers, resource persons from the Philippines to write about all things basketball and say "It's all here!".  Aside from that, there will be original NBA content from NBA Hype Squad which is a weekly podcast that will be available on the site.

 

Present in the occasion were Smart President and CEO and PLDT Chief Revenue Officer Alfredo Panlilio, Smart Vice President and Head of Content Business Development Gerard Milan, First Vice President for Corporate Marketing and Strategy Lloyd Manaloto, PLDT First Vice President and Head of Sports Jude Turcuato, NBA Asia Managing Director Scott Levy and NBA.com Philippines Managing Director Mico Halili.

Currently, Smart subscribers has league pass access rates. In addition to that, prepaid and postpaid subscribers will have exclusive access to editorial content on NBA.com/Philippines for FREE (no data charges). This is the best time to subscribe to the monthly and 3-Game packages  with NBA league pass, it only costs Php 485 and Php 85, which is already a great deal. For prepaid subscribers, you may opt to register by dialing *123# and choose GIGA VIDEO 99 since it also includes 1GB worth of data on NBA League pass, which is sweet.

Go check out smart.com.ph for details on these and future plans, and if you're up for sports, get it via NBA.com/Philippines because as I mentioned earlier, it's all there!

Bagong Tapang sa One Ginebra Nation

Hindi kawalan ng katapangan ang pagpapakumbaba. Ngayong nagbago ang mundo, bago na rin ang tapang mo! #OneGinebraNation

Posted by Ginebra San Miguel on Wednesday, December 30, 2020

The pandemic brought out the worst, but also the good things about the Filipino spirit. We draw strength from our family, our friends, and we know that if we fall even so many times, we can still rise above these challenges with a BIGGER outlook on life, making sure we pick up the pieces and rebuild our businesses, our lives, and make sure our family is taken cared of. Ginebra also encourages to take well deserved breaks, so stay humble, and work our way up again. To showcase a different kind of courage and succeed this battle, we always can recharge, because how can we help others with an empty cup? Makes sense huh?

Current Marketing Manager for Ginebra San Miguel Ron Molina says "Pinoys have always been tough people. No matter what challenges we have today, we know we can do it, to work and succeed, to also celebrate small victories. We learn from these things and continue to evolve, and adapt! We all face these challenges with a new found eagerness to fight on as we all get forged to get more tough after this pandemic. Ginebra continues to be one with Filipinos during these uncertain times, and as we rebuild our new lives."

We're here to change the world, in our own little way. Filipinos are weatherproof, resilient, tough people and we're ready to become bigger, better versions of ourselves. Check on yourselves and do what makes you happy!

Gaming with the vivo Y31

I'm a very casual gamer and I think there are only several phones in the market that actually cater to serious gaming. It's a hard market to please because as much as you've loved the photos and videos you take, you've got to satisfy how it handles graphics, controls, how it responds to eye hand coordination and connect fast to the network. This includes a very powerful processor that can do all these things and perhaps, make the other functions work as well without breaking the bank. Aside from that, I think the pandemic made this hobby more of an essential, to you know, make it a little sane for all of us who's mental health is being tested. This vivo Y31 can sufficiently do these things and more. Aside from the processing power it has, it's got longer battery duration + aesthetically pleasing and functional.

The phone is equipped with the latest Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 662 octa-core processor and runs on Android 11 with the FunTouch OS 11 variety. It's got more than enough processing capability to support endless gaming hours you often do during these times. Knowing this also carries a 5000mAh battery feels so assuring that you won't run out of juice so soon while you're still in the gaming mood as it would last several hours with it.  Not only that, if you do run out of batteries, it's easier to charge back into action as it's capable of 18W Fast Charge which means you can do it faster, in less time. It's form is surprisingly designed well that you can hold it in your hand comfortably and grip it without worrying it would slip. That is design genius and I rarely see manufacturers pay attention with that. For gamers, fingers can sit easy on the sides and screen can still respond to button presses on screen so you get your wins easy.

 The vivo Y31 also has a 6.58-inch FHD (Full High Definition) and Halo FullView™ display which makes your viewing experience even better. It feels immersive, easy on the eyes and doesn't shortchange you in that department. For photography enthusiasts, this has got a 48MP main camera so you get a lot of detail in every shot. If you're into selfies (8MP), this has support 2MP bokeh and macro cameras so those background remain creamy so I might suggest someone to take photos of you, it'll be way better.

 If you're fond of Mobile Legends or Call of Duty Mobile (who's next season is going to happen soon), you might want to look at vivo Y31's way because it only costs Php 12,999 which is very affordable. You get get more information about it on https://www.vivoglobal.ph/phone/vivo-Y31/ or their official Facebook page (just search for vivo Philippines) or their other social channels. They are available now on the vivo official store on Shopee and Lazada, so it's easier to get it and delivered to your home.

It's nice no?
