A former colleague and friend who is now working in another country posted some items for sale which caught my attention. She said that these items are authentic and she is selling at a lower price. I decided to buy some items and yes, the price was really low as I only paid PHP 2,400.00 ($48.00) for the three items, Bvlgari Omnia Golden Citrine, VS Amber and VS Bare Vanilla lotion. I remember, I paid the same amount last year for one item (Bvlgari Omnia) when I bought it in a certain store in our place, so paying the same price for 3 items is a great buy for me. I received the items today and I was excited to open the package. I'm happy to have a gift to myself this Christmas. Have a lovely evening my friends!

I am glad you are able to get these items on time. I wonder how she was shipping these internationally that fast and not cost that much I assume. Those are good prices. I think the Victoria's Secret costs $18 each.

I don't know too. Her husband is in the Philippines and he is the who sent the products from another province. I paid 95 pesos ($2.00) for the shipping. The products are really authentic. I am planning to buy some more from her.

@Raine38 I see. So, even the sending of packages is affected. I know transporting of goods from one place to another is really slow nowadays. I can see a long queue of trucks carrying merchandise to another island in the highway. You know, one of the municipalities in the province is the gateway to Visayas island, so those trucks need to pass through our place. And there is a delay because of the current regulations. So you were not able to send packages this Christmas. That's sad. I hope the agent could resume with the business soon.

@ARIES1973 I see, only reason I asked is I have lots of stuff to send to my family there. But because of the pandemic the agent who takes care of my boxes is not operating at this time.

That's true. I searched the same brand and found out that stores are selling the perfume alone for PHP3,125.00 ($60.00). It is certainly a great deal.

Oh, I haven't tried the Amber lotion yet. But I do love the scent of Amber Romance so maybe I will buy next time. Bare Vanilla was recommended by the husband of my friend so I decided to buy it too since the price is affordable.

Yes, that is what we should do. Though I am happy that I can buy something that I want once in a while. Thank you for dropping by!

Wow their perfumes at Victoria secrets must be so expensive. Sounds like you got a really good deal getting three for the cost you usually pay for 1.
