SM City North Edsa's biggest sale of the year "The Great Northern Sale" has just started yesterday! I can't help myself but go and visit to take a look what it has to offer on its first day of sale.

I went to the mall at 3pm and was so surprised that there were so many people inside even though it was work hour! It seems that some people took the day off just to be able to find good bargains or buy things from their wishlist.

Upon entering the mall, the most wonderful thing greeted me:
Party dresses from SM Ladies Fashion were at 50% off! How cool is that?
Walking around the mall, I've noticed that not only fashionable clothes are on sale! There are restaurants who have their own way of having a sale as well which makes visiting SM City North Edsa even better!
Arafu Cafe whose specialty is Japanese burger is having a "Teriyaki Festival" and offering their teriyaki burger at PhP198 for the small order and PhP298 (from PhP320) for the big order.
The owner of Arafu Cafe, Minako, is Japanese so you're sure that what you get here is authentic Japanese cuisine. She's even there in the store to supervise with cooking and managing the guests!

After eating, it was time to shop again! Of course! What else do you do in a sale, right?

I saw these nice shirts for men and women in Link that were only as low as PhP150!
Ice Watch that has watches in candy colors have a 50% discount offer on all their watches!
Do you love steak? I saw this restaurant called Brickfire which is famous for their oven baked steaks and chops which is a lot healthier than the grilled ones. The price of their steak starts from PhP149 (yes, it's that affordable!) is also having a special offer during the Great Northern Sale!
Buy 1 Angus steak and get 25% off on some of their famous dishes like Mac n' Cheese, Liempo, Seafood Chowder, Cheesy Broccoli and Beef Asado.
Look at their Cowgirl Annie Steak (T-bone steak) at PhP260 (350 grams which is their large size). It's one of their specialties and best-selling item in the menu.
After having this sumptuous steak, with a full tummy, it's time to shop more!

P100 for any of these items! Cool, isn't it?

Penguin also has some pretty cool sale items for men!

Look at these shoes! Great for work or those formal events, right?

Buffalo's Wings N' Things also offered some menu packages for groups who would like to have some snacks after being tired from all the walking.
Twisted Candy which offers a good show while they're preparing the candies, have an exciting offer for the sweet tooth as well!

Look at that! "3 Day Sale" spelled out in a candy! Cool, huh?

Look at these cute pieces!

It's a doll! Too pretty to eat!

To cap off a great shopping experience, had my dinner at Vikings!

Most of the time, one shops for clothes in the usual stores or department stores. For designer clothing, it's a must to visit the designer in his or her office to have one measured and have a piece of designer wear. Because of the hassle to find a designer, braving the traffic to visit him or her in his office and wait for the time (of at least two weeks), a lot of people in the Philippines are not keen on getting designer clothing.

Before summer comes to an end, I'm sure a lot of people are going to the beach for a last minute end of summer vacation before the typhoon starts coming. Sabre by Lizanne is having a sample sale at the 4/F Markati Palazzo at the Podium from today until May 29, 2011.

During The Philippine Fashion Week (PFW) Spring/Summer 2011, Lizanne Cua launched her "Radioactive Chic" collection. Her designs are flowing and light to highlight the natural curves of a modern Filipina and hide the unwanted flabs which is quite helpful for most women.

All the clothes are as seen during PFW so you can flaunt your designer outfit at the beach as you enjoy the last moments of summer with your friends and family! And remember to take lots of pictures to post on Facebook because it will take another year before summer comes back!
