Charged for Unsubscribed SMS Info (Ire)

Watch out for those supposedly free SMS info that you receive daily. You may be charged Php 2.50/text, which can grow to astronomical amounts once you add the fact that these texts are sent several times during the day.

Of course, I wanted to support Etheria so I hurriedly wrote a piece about Iza Calzado — Amihan of GMA 7 Encantadia for its world premiere.

Cheap Eats — Mannang

You might want to try the easily accessible Mannang — another Cheap Eats find recommended by my sister found right smack in Megamall Building A basement level.
