Enjoy Saving with Group Buying Sites in the Philippines

I recently found out that there are sites in the Philippines offering huge discounts for travel, leisure, dining, gadgets, health, beauty and a whole lot more! These are companies doing group buying or collective buying of different products and services from different businesses and they are re-offering them to the public from 10% to a sky-rocketing 90+% off! I immediately thought that this is definitely what we Filipinos are looking since most of us are really hooked into discounts and on-sale items. These sites are rapidly becoming a fad in the Filipino market. As for the buyers, these group buying sites have been listening eagerly and constantly asking for recommendations of their favorite businesses to be featured on their sites! Though their offers may sound exciting, one should be quite fast in deciding to purchase since offers have their validity (you will see a countdown for every offer), and for sure you wouldn't want to miss that opportunity in availing the offer they have! Also, offers have a minimum number of buyers before "The Deal is On!" and some offers are setting limits to the coupons buyers can have.    


Here are some of the sites I visit from time to time to check on the latest deals in the world of group buying :


1. ENSOGO - www.ensogo.com.ph
Let's save together 

This group buying site is on the top my list. Besides offering a huge discount in the market, they are giving away additional discount of 5% for BDO Credit Cardholders and 7% discount for BDO Virtual Cardholders, such as myself!!! Today's offer from Ensogo is a 51% discount for room accommodation with breakfast for 2 persons at Pontefino Hotel, Batangas City. Originally valued at Php7,000, buyers can enjoy this package now for only P3,450! Aside from this, there are 17 more great deals to be seen on their homepage!

I have known this group buying site when the business of my friend (SHUI HILOT SPA) was featured here. Today, BUYanihan has an exciting promo of winning not 1, not 2, but 6 Dream Vacation Packages for 2 in BUYanihan's Summer 2011 Getaway Promo! Just sign-up for free and join the raffle! Besides this, they have more exciting deals with Custom-made Cakes and Cupcakes and a 52% OFF on a Booze Bumpin' Party for 100 pax with UNLIMITED DRINKS! Well let's toast to that!
