Good news to Ikea lovers in the Philippines, we found another seller of Ikea items! Check out their showroom at 120 Kamias Road, Quezon City. They only have small items, but you can still order the bigger items and just wait for them to be shipped. You can check out their Multiply site to see which items are for sale.

I’ve recently discovered the joys of online shopping. I’ve purchased 2 items from Amazon in the past, just to try it out, but now I can say I’m a regular shopper. Thanks to my boss’ box in the US. For me, the key is to buy items that are not available here. It doesn’t make sense to buy the items available here, even at a discount, because the delivery and customs fees are a bit high. So far, I’ve purchased Life is Good shirts, Livestrong items, and Sephora items.

And then I discovered the individual sellers at Multiply. These are local sellers, selling affordable and nice items such as bags, shoes, and accessories. I’ve purchased several items already and I think it’s about time that I write about them. So far, I’ve been very satisfied with the sellers.

Fashionista’s Haven (2 pairs of earrings, 3 types of bangles) – Very easy to talk to, prompt replies to inquiries, and quick delivery! The bangles were really nice, and the earrings are pretty! I will definitely watch out for her new items.

Doll It Up (Jelly shoes) – I totally love the jelly shoes! They’re really comfy! All my officemates have been asking about them too. Easy to talk to, and quick delivery. Looking forward to her new products!

Tangled Spangles (Scarfun Summer Melissa Shoes) – I totally love the shoes! Even if the heels are high, the shoes are still very, very comfy. Plus I’ve been getting compliments left and right! Definitely worth it! Expectations are managed – they tell you how long you have to wait since they still have to order the shoes. I got a text update too, so I knew when to expect the shoes. I’m a happy customer!

Therapy Bags (1 bag) – I LOVE THE BAG! Really, really worth it! Seller is easy to talk to, replies to inquiries are prompt, and the delivery was fast! I had the bag 3 days after I first inquired. The day after I paid Gcash, she shipped the item right away. I’m now waiting for the new designs.

The Purchaser (3 bags) – I like the bags! Nice! Wait is a bit long though, seemed longer than what I was told. But the sellers are very easy to talk to. I always watch out for their new bags.

Well, “new” because I just got into them recently, even if they’ve been around for quite some time now. I’m talking about 43 Things and Twitter. I just recently signed up with these sites and I am hooked!

I’ve been shopping online for the past couple of months. Bad, baaaad for the savings. But I really enjoy it! Check out the following sellers on Multiply:

The Purchaser
Tangles Spangles
Happy Beans Apparel
House of Sugar and Spice
Bags on My Mind

Life is Good.

This is Mike O’s mantra. And mind you, it’s not just a line, he tries to live it too. We hear it so much from him that some of us in the office say it a lot already.

And then I stumbled upon the Life is Good website. Thanks to Shirley, who gave us a Life is Good cap for pasalubong when she visited last time. I visited the website right away.

They have really cute items. My recent acquisitions – a t-shirt and a backpack. I can’t wait to use them!!!
