Canon’s EOS 350D hits sub-50k price

Was visiting Abensons here at WalterMart Pasong-Tamo for 3 days now to check out their 50% sale on appliances. The 34″ Sony Wega TVs got me drooling but at the discounted price tag of Php49,999, it was still pricey for me (anyone interested in my two-year old 29″ Kolin TV for 10k? hehehe).

I ended up getting a La Germania gas range to replace my 5 year-old super kalan at home (yes, it’s that old), so I could get some decent home-cooked meal around here.

Anyway, what took most of my time in the shop was the Canon Rebel XT (EOS 350D) which now retails just below fifty grand — Php49,995 (kit included).

Canon Digital SLR

I’ve made up my mind to get that one together with a nice high-zoom lens, just out of budget right now (I have some ongoing belt-tightening project). Surely, my Palawan (and hopefully, Davao) trip later this year will not be complete without it.

Speaking of Email & Gadget Shopping

Some guy from Sweden emailed us at PTB asking for Gadget Shopping Tips here in Manila.

I just realized that most of the gadgets and devices I have now were mostly bought from Electroworld/Abensons. The last 2 iPods that I got was on a 12-gives deal with Electroworld, Park Square 1. The Digital Canon Ixus 30 I bought March of 2005 was from Abensons, Waltermart (another 12 gives). My Nokia 3230 was bought at Electroworld in Megamall for 3 installments last August.

My old Palm Zire 71 what I switched for a badminton raquet and bag was also bought from Electroworld Park Square 1. The last 2 Logitech mouse that I have right now was from there as well. My JVC 5.1 component was bought from an Abensons’ sale in Cybermall, Libis. (Electroworld, Waltermart and Abensons are owned by just one family right?)

Geez… their Rewards Plus promo card has really hooked me up with them. What to do with those rewards points…. hmmm.
