FREE Premium Bus Rides and Shuttle Transfers from NAIA

Public transportation has drastically improved because of the availability of premium buses. Due to the traffic and high fuel prices, I  personally prefer not to be picked up at the airport whenever I am in Manila. Instead, I just take these P2P buses. After all, it's safe, convenient and very cost-effective.

So if you haven't tried this service or if you love taking these NAIA shuttle transfers, you are in for a treat! Here's how you can get a free ticket/ ride: 

Go to: http://bit.ly/NAIABusTransfers
Use code: EXPLOREHOME



Pick a bus schedule that's most convenient with your arrival time and choose among many premium bus options. 

Aside from non-stop travel from the airport to your choice of destination, these buses are also equipped with Wi-Fi to keep you connected while on the road. No need to worry about your time of arrival as a new bus will come every 30 minutes.

[NATIONWIDE] Where can you donate your old clothes?

Did you know that you can donate your old clothes to H&M?




H&M Philippines encourages customers to bring and donate their old clothes (whether in good or bad condition) in exchange for store discount vouchers. This is their way of helping lessen the garbage brought about by the fashion industry. After all, fashion is too precious to end up in the landfills.  




How to donate?

There is no minimum number of pieces. You just have to fill a paper bag with old clothing (no matter what brand or condition) and bring to any H&M store nationwide. 

However, please take note that there is a limit of only 2 vouchers per customer per day regardless of how much clothes you are donating. (Approximately one bag full of clothes is equal to one 15% discount voucher) 




If you are curious what does H&M does with these donated clothes, these old garments are collected by their partner, I:Collect. These are then sorted into three categories: 

  • Rewear – old clothes that are still in good condition and can be resold.
  • Reuse – old clothes and textiles that can be reused and turned into other materials like cleaning cloths.
  • Recycle – everything else is turned into textile fibers, and used for things like insulation.
The proceeds are donated to H&M Foundation and split between social projects and recycling projects. Also, for every kilogram of garment collected, I:Collect donates 0.02 euros UNICEF Philippines. You can read more about it here

So, what are you waiting for? It's about time we all get stylish yet responsible Filipino citizens. Whether you are from Manila, Cebu, Davao or Bacolod, you can now donate your old clothes to any H&M branch in the Philippines. 

UPDATE: I just donated another bag last August 17, 2018. So, for those who are asking -- yes, this is still ongoing. Also, here's the voucher that they are giving away.
