Two Simple Ways To Join Domex’s One Million Clean Toilets Movement

If you’re from the province like me, you can definitely relate to the mood of this video:

Now it made me miss our fiesta!

If you haven’t seen the video, you have to see it, the festive mood, the excitement of the people.. and the reason behind that excitement,

You didn’t see it coming noh?

Who would have? That kind of welcome just for the arrival of clean toilet in their facilities?

According to our friends from Unilever, the video, aptly titled as Fiesta shows how underprivileged Filipinos welcome the “arrival” of clean toilet facilities in their communities. “The video aims to make people realize the value of a toilet which most of us, unfortunately, take for granted,” said Dennis Chua, Domex Brand Manager.

The “Fiesta” video contributes to the efforts of Domex’s One Million Clean Toilets Movement. Each unique view translates into a pledge for the advocacy campaign which collects pledges from households to conscientiously maintain their own hygienic bathrooms.

How can we be a part of Domex’s One Million Clean Toilets Movement?

1. Watch the video above. Every watch= pledge and for every pledge received, Domex will donate P5 to UNICEF’s sanitation program, towards improving access to basic sanitation in deprived areas around the world, including the Philippines.

2. Share the video and ask your friends to watch it too!

You can also watch the video on Domex Facebook Page

Clean toilets, germ-free communities
All over the country, people are welcoming the construction of new toilet facilities and the repair of dilapidated ones, since becoming aware of its role in disease prevention, especially among children.

According to the Department of Health, of the estimated 3,420 diarrhea-related deaths among Filipino children under 5 every year, around 2,000 could have been prevented by access to safe water, improved toilet sanitation and personal hygiene.

“This video should serve as a wake-up call for most of us. The little things we take for granted, like having a clean toilet, could mean the world to others and could definitely help save lives,” Chua said.

Who’s watching and pledging with me?!?

Giordano Outlet Store Finds

Since we discovered Giordano Outlet Store at Shell of Asia (NLEX near Sta Rita Toll), a stop over is never complete without checking what’s on sale on the store. And last weekend proved to be another “thank goodness I didn’t spend all my vacation money” moment. We found a few pieces that we “need” to buy.

Kiddie tights for only 98 PhP ($2 more or less), men’s polo shirt for 700 PhP ( $15+) and Ladies shorts for 700 PhP.

I bought her 5, because she’s turning 5 this Saturday! ahaha

My 3 boys were sad, no polo shirt for them this time. I was told, more clothes will be on sale by December.

Malling Made Easy With Robinsons Malls Mobile App

We were at the mall last Thursday.. Robinsons Galleria to be exact..and after I posted our “The Face Shop” moment.. I realized that we really are malling!

MALLING. I made it sound like a big deal no? IT IS!!!!! If you have 4 kids in tow.. malling is not a word.. but last Thursday, it was if the universe conspired to re introduce me to malling.

For one, the kids are growing up, specially my 2 boys. Now, I can count on them to look after the two younger kids. No more “habulan” moments!

Another thing, the introduction Robinsons Malls Mobile App to me, made it a lot easier.

Let me count the ways why malling is not easy with 4 kids:

1. Where’s the nearest bathroom?!?

And then I go running, asking every guard I see for the nearest bathroom! And with 3 kids who’s also running and another kid screaming, “I can’t hold it anymore!!” phew!

2. Where’s that store again?

And then I walk with 4 kids in tow, looking for that particular store.. which happens to be just a few stores away from where I was but the guard told other wise.. and walked and walked.. still with 4 kids in tow.. and walked..

Or when that particular store does not actually exist in that particular mall.. yes it happened to me once and it was crazy!

3. Where should we eat?

And if you’re a walking “mall” encyclopedia, that’s not really a problem. You can enumerate all the food establishment in a particular mall, their location, down to their menu and prices! But I AM NOT LIKE THAT! So with 4 kids in tow, I “look” for the perfect place to eat.. and ask for the direction and we walked.. and walked.. and walked..

So, how does Robinsons Malls Mobile app made it easier for me?? Let me count the ways…

1. Oh, there’s that bathroom!

2. Oh! There’s that store!!

I was looking for Dasiso when we were in Galleria last Thursday.

3. Oh there’s Sbaroo here!

All these comes with a direction! Ang saya di ba? If you see a QR labels such as this:

Scan it and it will record your location and give you a direction to where you want to go. You can also put your location if you can’t find a QR label.. but that’s not likely to happen since it was strategically placed on posts around the mall. Even on parking!

Aside from my “dilemma solved” above, here are some other things that Robinsons Malls Mobile Apps can do:

It can direct you to the nearest Robinsons Malls in your location and give particular direction on how to go there.
Mall visitors can also record where they parked their vehicles, guided by QR labels.
Users can also purchase Robinsons Movieworld and snacks online.
Users can program the app to prompt them for upcoming events like concerts and mall-wide sales.
The 35,000-plus Robinsons Privilege Card holders can also access the app so they can be reacquainted with the privileges available to them, including a list of stores offering discounts and freebies.

And to introduce the new mobile apps, Robinsons Malls will hold a caravan in the activity area of Robinsons on October 25, Robinsons Magnolia on November 9 and Robinsons Place Manila on November 30

Mallers who download the new Robinsons Malls App will receive Welcome Deals with discount coupons provided by partner merchants and freebies from affiliates in their email. As a bonus, every app download and registration is automatically qualified for a selfie stick raffle to be held every month starting November 17.

The Robinsons Malls App is available for FREE at the iOS App Store (8MB file size for iOS 6.0 and higher) and Android Play Store (11MB file size for Android 4.0 and higher).
