Over 2,000 participants from the Philippines and overseas, joined the first Tough Mudder Philippines weekend, which took place last July 21-22, 2018, at Portofino, Vista Alabang.

I think the ColorManila team and Proactive, have really done a good job pulling off an amazing event. It has been a challenging week with all the rains and the flooding, but the event that they put on this weekend has been fantastic, and I see that the participants are all having a great time.

“Today we got a taste of having the 5K and the half (8K). And we’re hoping to bring the full (16K) over here, and bring the best obstacles that we’ve got for a full event.”

Proactive VP Justine Cordero, adds, “We’re very happy that we have a lot of mudders today who joined. I’ve seen the participants enjoying themselves as they went through the obstacles, and they’re also helping each other out,…it’s all about teamwork.

Dos and Don’ts of Online Furniture Shopping



Wazzup Pilipinas!

In the digital age, we live in; online shopping has become the norm for many people. However, while it’s relatively easy to shop for everyday items or subscription packages, buying home décor items can be quiet daunting, especially for the inexperienced.

Furniture shopping, for example, may prove to be a challenging task when you don’t know what to watch out for. So, consider the following dos and don’ts before you renovate your house or apartment.

The Dos

Verify the Authenticity of the Store


First off, what you need to do is make sure the store you shop from is genuine. To differentiate between real, authentic websites and the cheap, knockoffs observe the design and layout. A legitimate retailer will give more thought to the plan of his/her site than an illegitimate one.

You should also read the store reviews before you start browsing. There are two kinds of people in this world; those who make mistakes then learn from them and those who learn from the experiences of others. Be the person to learn from others and avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Read Product Reviews


Doing a little research before purchasing a potential piece of furniture goes a long way in helping you avoid disasters; reviews are the best way to know what to expect with the product in question. Know the previous customers’ thoughts and opinions before deciding on a particular piece; it will help you avoid feeling “buyer’s remorse.”

Remember to Measure


It’s not always necessary for the furniture that peaks your interest to fit the space you intend for it. Measure the piece of furniture you wish to buy as well as your apartment/house before finalizing your decision.

Measure once, twice, thrice, because you’re human and bound to make mistakes. When it comes to measurements for furniture shopping, there is no such thing as being too careful.

The Don’ts
Trust the Image

The saying, “Seeing is believing,” may hold true for some situations but not when it comes to furniture shopping. The photos used to advertise a product do not showcase the actual color most times; they are taken by professionals then further edited to make the item look the best version possible.

Plus, the lighting and exposure may change the color entirely. For example, brown may become black.

So don’t judge based on looks, read the descriptions and customer reviews before you make your decision.

Be Quick to Hit Checkout

“Good things come to those who wait.” Memorize the quote and make it your life’s motto, at least when shopping for furniture.

There is no need to rush things when you’re looking to set up your homes or apartments; mistakes happen when you rush. Let your choice sit in your cart for a couple of hours then go back and decide if you still want it or wish to review your options again.

Who knows, something far better may come along if you wait to hit checkout.

Spend Over Your Budget
It is easy to overspend with online shopping, so it is crucial that you maintain your budget. If a piece seems the right fit but is highly expensive, don’t buy it! You can look for something similar at lower costs or use coupons to get discounts on your desired piece. PennySaviour, for example, offers fantastic discounts Codes and Coupon of various brands like Cymax, et cetera.

Conclusion

While online shopping is convenient and saves time and money, you still need to watch out for scams. It is your hard-earned money after all, so no need to be rash and hasty with your decisions. Take your time, read the reviews, compare prices, then make your decision.
