Divisoria – A Haven for Bargain Shoppers

My parents, my brother and I have been bargain shoppers since we were kids. I can count with my fingers and toes the times we shopped at the mall for new clothes, shoes, school supplies, etc. And I'm actually pretty glad that my nanay raised us that way because we get easily contented in life.

My tatay and my brother love shopping at ukay-ukay stores because they can buy a pair of pants for only Php 50 (about $1). I've tried buying at ukay-ukay stores, too, but they don't usually offer a wide range of women's clothing. The ones I bought ended up as house clothes (pambahay).divisoria-1

Thank goodness there's Divisoria. It is  a place in Manila where one can find a huge deal of bargain stores that sell everything but the kitchen sink (well, you can actually buy these there, too, but you know what I mean) at very low prices. Divisoria is where my nanay and I go to buy women's tops (blouses, shirts) because I love the designs and you won't find them elsewhere.

If you're thrifty like me and my family, you'd enjoy shopping at Divisoria. Some people may argue that the items you can buy there are not of high quality. However, in my experience, the clothes that I've bought from Divisoria, even the plus-sized clothing for women, don't even look like they cost me only Php 120-150 per piece. It's really all about how you carry yourself.

If you haven't been to Divisoria, you are missing a lot. Why? Well, aside from the cheap prices, you'd also find a huge range of items in Divisoria that you won't find anywhere else. In fact,divisoria-2 I haven't seen anyone else wearing the same design like the blouses I've bought from Divi (short for Divisoria). Usually, when you buy signature clothing or when you buy clothes at the mall, you'd see a lot of people wearing the same design. That's also one of the reasons my brother didn't like shopping at the mall. Well, except for groceries.

Anyway, if you're not familiar with Divisoria, you can ask where 168 Mall, Tutuban Mall or Divisoria Mall is. You can shop there for clothes, school and office supplies, hardware, beads, toys, etc., at very affordable prices.
