With the impending first day of school early June, now is the time to get to
Divisoria to check out their bargain items. I took the bus to Quiapo intending to take a short
jeepney ride to Divisoria from there. The bus took a detour and went around Manila proper before heading back to Quiapo - wiping out precious time doing so. I arrived in Quiapo high noon and realized that heading to Divisoria at that time will just be futile as I will not be able to cover at least an area where they specialize in selling electronic stuff. I decided to just stay in Quiapo and visited the
church. I skipped lunch to give me more time and headed straight to where they sell computer peripherals - mind you, even though Divisoria is about a klick away you can still get them cheaper at Divisoria and haggle it down to almost nary a profit.
I got driving sleeves, Rina's pill-minder, gift bag and other stuff. I also have an idea of how much items I'm planning on getting in Divisoria goes for. So watch out Divisoria, I'll be there soon!
