Serious about bad breath? Swish it off!
I work as a communications specialist. Most of the time, I write a lot. Sometimes when my fingers are starting to fade away from my hands because of non-stop typing, I'll consider it my cue to talk instead.
I also love talking especially if the one in front of me is attentively listening. I can talk until I know something about a topic. Well, I need to be a little "talkative" because my job requires me too. I meet people of all shapes and sizes almost everyday.
I see to it that I am presentable and smell good especially in business meetings. Thus, I am very serious in making sure that I wear the right amount of perfume or cologne and my breath smells good. Otherwise, our meeting might end up to a guessing game of what I had for lunch.
Good thing, a fresh breath is just a swish away. In case one day you are in one of those popular fast food chains eating your favorite burger (because you love the toy that comes free with it) then suddenly a client called you up asking for an emergency meeting to discuss a project. You don't have time to go back to the office but you can pass by a pharmacy or a grocery store. If you a hundred peso in your wallet, your problem is solved in a snap, or should I say, in a swish.
Introducing the Swish Breath Spray that can give you instant fresh breath in just 10 seconds! It quickly kills germs and bacteria in the mouth to eliminate bad breath caused by eating, drinking and smoking. It is very convenient to use anytime and anywhere for a quick breath fix.
Simply spray 1 to 2 pumps into your mouth to freshen breath instantly. You will find it very economical as each bottle can last up to 100 sprays. You might be happy to know that it is absolutely alcohol-free and sugar-free. You can choose from two refreshing variants – Arctic Chill and Peppermint Fresh. Check it out in supermarkets, drugstores and convenience stores nationwide with a suggested Retail Price: Php 105.00
This new product is a great addition to Swish Mouthwash which is one of the leading brands in the local market today. I would like to share an infographic below so you can check which variant of Swish is perfect in your mouth.
Gotta go. I have a meeting to attend to. By the way, you might want to "Like" https://www.facebook.com/Unilab to get news, updates and other promotions.

Dear Baby Monique
This open letter to my daughter Monique should have been posted on August 12, her birthday. But it was only today that our Globe internet connection was fully restored after a week of "absence."
Dear Baby Monique,
Six years ago, I experienced that great feeling that defined my essence of being a man--- fatherhood.
Though my first stint as a daddy was too short, 11 hours and 46 minutes to be exact, I instantly fell in love with your shiny black hair, red lips and rosy cheeks. If not for your fragile body, you might have been the better version of your mom today.
I still regret to this day the lost chance of putting you in that lovely purple baby dresses we bought in advance for future occasions or cleaning the wall in your room that we painted pink for whatever drawings you might think of.
I miss you so much and God knows if you are only with us today, you’d have the prettiest cake and best-tasting spaghetti and fried chicken last night.
I can only send you prayers and flying kisses for now. Mommy, Charles and I love you so much!
Mwha, Mwha! Chup, chup!
Daddy Richard

So what's next after the Minions
After two months in a row of "not-the-usual" breakfast, lunch, break time and dinner meals, I finally got back to my regular home cooked feasts.
Blame it to McDonalds. Because of the amazingly cute and collectible toys they give out for free in every order of Happy Meal, Dads and Moms went crazy and manipulated the servings they get when chow time comes. These parents just love their kids that they love to have to complete the set of the available toys. Or are they the ones who really like to get to hold of the pretty little play things more than their children?
Well, I am not ashamed to admit that I trade the packed lunch that my wife prepares for a spaghetti or chicken meal with a toy for a few days. I even go stores kilometers away from my office just to make sure I get a unique free miniature.
Did I say that Dads and Moms went crazy because of Happy Meal toys? It started with the Voov cars collectible then followed by the despicable Minions. I thought this insanity will not stop until... McDo announced that the yellow and purple cuties from the Movie Despicable Me 2 were out of stock.
Thus, I was not able to complete my Minion set. This made me promised to my self that I will make sure to collect the next McDonald freebies whatever it is.
Now, what toys would that be? My guess is another group of little, cute and lovable beings--- The Smurfs. I got this image from www.mcdhappymealtoys.com. I just hope to really get all of the 16 available Smurfs toys for my kid... and myself.

Wise Spending with Save 22
I am cheap… and you know what, I’m proud of it!
I am cheap
from head to toe. I buy shampoo that comes with free sachet packs or a bar of
soap. Most of my shirts were dug up from bargain bins of various malls. My
pants were bought not because of their quality but because of its special price
discount. My boxers came in a box labelled with a “bundle deal” sticker. My
socks’ brand name is “Pack of 3 Pairs” to go along with my shoes that I picked
up in a shop’s closing out sale.
You see, I
am not a fan of anything with a 4-digit tag price. One of my shopping mantra is
“999 is the limit,” if you know what I mean.
Call me a garage
sale hunter, bargain bin king or even a cheapskate. I won’t mind as long as you
treat me with one of those buy 1, take 1 burger offesr or eat-all-you-can deals.
Did I tell you that I am cheap?
For a person
whose definition of the word “saving” evolved from “rescuing” (toddler stage)
to storing computer data (student years) to “spending less” (the very moment I
became a dad), I believe that every peso that I can put aside will be useful in
the future.
Ever since I
became a family man, the art if budgeting has been a craft I continue to master
to this date. After all, I am the CFO of our monthly family expenses, dictator of
the shopping list and captain of the grocery cart. I can still remember in the
past, I have to visit different stores to compare prices of products before
making a purchase. Today, the best deal for your money is just a click away
anytime, anywhere.
It’s no
secret that many people have become dependent to the internet in so many ways.
We read news online to be updated of what’s happening around us. We get tips
and recommendations for our next family trip through blogs and features. Some
people even met their future spouses online (this guy included).
The internet
is a very helpful ally that makes life better is used properly. One way we can
maximize its use is by tapping it as a guide or reference every time we will
purchase something whether online or not. Let me introduce to you a website
that I have been visiting regularly to get updates on the latest sales,
promotions and exciting deals of my favorite merchants.
Save22.com.ph
is a search technology in a form of a website that allows potential buyers to
aggregate and compare prices of the goods or services from several stores. Just a reminder: Save 22 is not connected with
the stores presented in their website. So, if you have a query on a particular
product, you need to directly contact the store that offers it. Anyways, Save 22 provides the list of
products with corresponding price along with the detail information of the shop
location through Google Maps. Thus, saving you from the hassle of where and how
to look up those information.
And did you
know that Save 22 also offer a free downloadable app (Barcode Scanner) for your
mobile gadgets that you can use to scan the barcode of an item and allow you to
compare the deals with your friends and other costumers? Cool, right?
If you think
I have already told you all the best things about Save 22, you’re wrong. I have
not yet informed you the website is free and does not charge any access fee.
All the information in the website are provided to all its readers at no cost. You also don’t have to worry about online
security or if the offers are scams because there is no monetary
transaction in the site. You will personally visit the merchants featured and
thus you can tell first hand if the promotions is real or not. Also, there is
no pressure shopping since there is no salesperson involved in the transaction.
You have all the time in the world to check on the prices of goods, compare
with other products or merchant and buy only when you are finally decided what is
the best deal for you. In the end, you’ll be a happy shopper who just availed
of great offers from trusted merchants. Visit www.save22.com.ph
to see how it can help you do some wise spending.
You might be
asking why and how I have become the “cheap” person that I am today. Simple, I
want a good future for my son that’s why I am already saving for his needs this
early. We can’t tell what tomorrow brings so might as well think of ways that
can help secure the future of my child. That’s why I choose to save. Well, I’m
happy to share that at the young age of 4 years old, my little Charlie is
turning out to be a sale hunter like me. He knows it's not okay to buy something if I already describe it as "expensive."
Charles has been my favorite shopping and dining buddy and we're just hoping that our favorite shops will be featured at Save 22 along with some cool deals and promos. Here are some of our recommendations:
Save 22 is
definitely making an impact to many consumers looking for the best deals in
town. It influences consumers to what and where to buy it, to check online
first before buying offline. It also offers the best options for buyers and
most of all, Save 22 lives up to its name and vision of helping people save
money in every money spending adventure.
