Door-to-door Delivery from US Online Shops to Philippines with POBox.ph and BPI Cards

I find online shopping very convenient and had generally good experience with the local and US online stores we buy from.  However, many of the international sites don't ship to the Philippines.  We're lucky that my sis-in-law lives in the US address and she prepares our balikbayan box to be shipped here.  For many of my friends who don't have a delivery address in the US, finding a reliable courier for door-to-door deliveries is a challenge. Recently, I discovered BPI cards' tie-up with Philippine Online Box (Pobox.ph).  All you need to do is shop, pay via BPI cards, and POBox ships direct to the Philippines, anytime of the year!


Christmas season is just weeks away and, like me, I know Filipinos love to shop and send balikbayan boxes loaded with gifts for relatives here.  Actually, I'm already in the middle of my Christmas shopping.  Check out the stuff I've been browsing over at Amazon, Target, and Zappos. =)


My gift list includes books, clothes, and toys for our kids and inaanak (God children).  Of course, I shopped for myself too! =)  Lots of items are on sale now, like personal care items, and the spring and summer collections of shoes and bags.  It's all really worth it when shipped here since many of the branded items we chose cost double or more when you buy them here!


Great news for those with no US address - POBox.ph provides the delivery address for you and will then ship your orders door-to-door in approximately 5 weeks! What's more, if you are a BPI cardholder, you get 10% discount on POBox shipping fees until January 15, 2014!
