We went to the bank today as early as it opens. 
Usually, all banks here are closed on Saturdays except for some and most especially when the bank is located inside a mall, they are expected to be open even weekends.
So we went to the bank inside the mall, get some cash and paid some bills and do some errands. And we were home before 11am. 
We don't want to be out much out in the sun. It's so hot. Good things malls are all air-conditioned.

We rarely need to get cash anymore. Most things can be paid for with a debit or credit card. I do still HAVE cash on me, as does Pretty, but we save that for emergencies.
I'm glad things went well for you.

@rakski My favorite restaurant will only accept cash, too. And I've been wanting to go eat there for quite a while now.

@DaddyEvil really? They are still on cash basis?

I’ve never been to a bank in years. Many have closed down here due to lack of footfall. I pay all my bills online, and if I need cash, there are ATMs around, but they are becoming rarer too.
It’s definitely not too hot here, and it’s the rain you have to avoid.

BDO and BPI are always open in the mall... BPI inside the mall is my wallet saver ever! And it's safe to withdraw from ATM because they are always inside the premises of the Bank inside the mall with guards.
But I think Union Bank is also open every Saturday.
