Smog-covered vegetables?
Stuck in traffic in this smog-filled street, I wondered about the goods being sold here. There were vegetables and meat being sold right on the street, right beside the smoke coming from stalled jeeps and cars. It’s normal to see these goods being sold on the street, very close to traffic. I just wonder how clean these vegetables and meat are. While it may be cheaper to buy from these stalls than to buy them from groceries, there is quite a huge compromise on health and sanitation.
Hi! I’m Ayessa de Pedro of Ateneo de Manila University.
I came across your entry when I was researching for the SM advantage card, and I was wondering if my group could interview your friend from Marketing Convergence Inc. It’s for our class in Integrated Marketing Communications with Ms. Nonna Nanagas.
Thanks a lot!

SM Advantage Prestige Club

I came upon a private lounge at the top floor of SM Makati last month. I peeked behind the glass and saw families resting with their shopping bags surrounding them. The place looked really cozy! And so I entered the place to ask the receptionist about it.
Turns out there is an elite loyalty program called the SM Advantage Prestige . The private lounge is just one perk of being part of the program. One can unwind here after hours of shopping, have coffee… then go back out to the mall and shop some more! The place did look very relaxing. Along with this perk comes freebies and discounts.
One can be part of this program if you spend PHP 200,000 (cash or card) on SM Advantage partners within 1 year. At least it’s not 200,000 points like I thought it was! Check out the point conversion here. Once you reach PHP150,000, your status will be evaluated. Just hang in there and wait for feedback from SMwhen you’ve mde it to the Prestige Club.
Thanks for the clarification, OJ!
