Greenhills

From my hotel i have to take a cab there which cost around 60peso if not too traffic. As i step off from my cab and proceed to the building i was very happy, Lots and lots of stalls selling immitation bags, clothes, etc. A LOT!!! It definitely has the atmosphere like Pratunam in Bangkok. However..i ask a price for a top and the reply is 800 peso. So i try to bargain to 300 peso ( The value i thought for the top ) but being decline nicely. So i walk away and the vendor did not ask me to come back and renegotiate. Afterthat only then i know.. The atmosphere is nice but the price is still the same as in a normal not branded store in other any shopping malls. But some with stock clearance worth to browse. I only bought a high waisted short pants ( Special offer 250 peso ) and a chunky bracelet 150 peso though i try to bargain to 100peso if i were to buy 3 pieces but again being decline nicely. So bought only 1 for myself. But worth to walk the place just for the atmosphere. Shopping..well.. depends on one's value. But atleast better than China as the they decline nicely instead of decline rudely. You decide.

In greenhills, there is a cinema, one may catch a movie or take coffee. Lots of eateries. If you legs can support you you will definitely find the cinema and eateries. Just walk every corner.

Greenhills Shopping Complex

Greenhills Shopping Complex

Greenhills would take our top marks on the "Manila shopping experience" for a combination of factors, such as relative convenience, value for money, and pleasant ambiance. There are plenty of banks and money changers, and a large variety of retailers which are grouped; in one part of the complex there are hundreds of stalls selling mobile phone accessories, then in another area hundreds are selling clothes. The main items that stand out are artistic souvenirs and artistic pieces of home decoration, pearls when they have a fair (usually every February), clothes, and shoes (but prices slightly higher than Tutuban's), home furniture, and a lot more. In close proximity there are dozens of restaurants and coffee shops, at great prices, to allow a shopaholic a pleasant recovery at the end of a hard day's work.

Greenhills Shopping Center

When bargain-hunting for a variety of stuff, I always go to Greenhills. Located in the heart of San Juan, a few minutes drive from EDSA, Greenhills is a shopping paradise. Clothes, shoes, native souvenirs, computers, cell phones, knock-off designer bags and wallets, toys, children's apparel... these are just some of the items that you can shop for at Greenhills. The Greenhills Shopping Center is divided into three parts: Virra Mall shopping center, the main Greenhills complex, and the Unimart Supermarket. Anyone can find great deals on every shop. It is recommended to go there in mid-morning, where the sales ladies can give shoppers a first-customer discount or 'Buena Mano'. Haggling at half the price is a must because some stalls put up a mark-up on items based on the person's looks.

I always wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a small purse when shopping here. And food stalls and fast-food restaurants are all around the area when you get hungry; just be careful with drinking water served by the restaurant. To be safe, I always drink bottled water. Shopping here can be great--just learn to canvas first and go back to the ones who offer the lowest price for the item.
