MANY of us need a few simple reminders of how to shop safe and be wise on our decisions.
As SM City Iloilo prepares for its 3-Day Sale on March 13, 14 and 15, 2020, some shopping tips can be helpful so you just don’t wake up without a shopping plan for the biggest sale in town. Rather, take a few moments to have these shopping tips in mind.
SAFETY FIRST
With the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), one of the ways to keep customers safe is by keeping the malls clean. SM City Iloilo, along with the rest of the SM Supermalls, deployed Sanitation Teams to clean railings, escalators, elevators, and door handles to make sure we got the public points in our malls covered.
Alcohol is also available in all entrances to keep shoppers’ hands clean as they enter the premises.
We can live cleaner and healthier. Of course, shop cleaner.
LIST ‘EM ALL
Before you set off for shopping, the No. 1 tip is to make a list of the things you need and want.
As you have anticipated the sale and have put your eyes on the things you have been wanting to own for a long time, having a list makes it more convenient to shop and it takes a matter of minutes to prepare, to save you the hassle during the sale.
Having a list also serves as a guide of picking the right items or brands that suit your needs. This tip will also save you the time of having to think whether you miss or need something more out of the items you have in mind.
KNOW THE TIME
Pick the best time for you. Shopping can be a fatiguing and stressful activity if you don’t shop at a time that works well for you.
Being aware of the time and store hours is importantly helpful if you want to get the best deals of your favorite store in the mall during the sale. Special deals are often given in the early hours, so being on time will not only give you a chance to be the first to avail the item but the discounts as well.
Mall Hours:
March 13 (9 a.m. – 12 MN)
March 14 (8 a.m. – 11 p.m.)
March 15 (10 a.m. – 11 p.m.)
Also be mindful of the different cards like your SM Advantage, BDO Rewards, Ace Rewards and SM Prestige Cards. They have their own “special powers” that will give you more discounts on top of the existing discounts offered.
Prestige Friday (9 a.m. – 12 MN)
SMAC Saturday (8 a.m. – 12 NN)
Sunday Specials (3 p.m. – 7 p.m.)
Your mindfulness will give you a chance to win 1 of 3 Suzuki Skydrive motorcycles in the raffle.
SHOP HAPPY
Emotions play a vital part when you go shopping as it helps one to buy the right bargains offered by the sale. For all you know, there are more items you need that are beneficial to you than those you just buy out of wrong impulse.
