Island Souvenirs Cebu

By Unknown


Sinulog, a celebration made for Sto.Nino, is one of the most visited festival here in the Philippines. Visitors would expect Parades, street parties, Sto.Nino blessing, native dances, and the likes.


Visitors must know that the prices during Sinulog would increase. 20-50% for hotel rates, according to one travel blogger I met during the trade fair. Airfare Tickets would also increase! You should better buy your tickets early! :D

SINULOG SHIRT

Never forget to buy Sinulog shirt, or at least a Cebu shirt! This would become handy during Street parties during the Sinulog day itself!

I suggest, you buy to Island Souvenir, SM, Robinsons, Ayala. They have a lot of designs you can choose from.


ISLAND SOUVENIRS

  • They are very popular in selling Souvenir shirt to tourist. You can purchase personalized shirt, sinulog shirts, cebu shirts, cebu delicacies, refrigerator magnet, key chain, and baller.
  • There are two branches in Cebu that i know: Near Magellan's Cross and Ayala Mall



  • Personalized shirt
    • This is around 200-300 pesos with free 10 letters. I'm not sure if the word "CEBU" is already part of the 10 letter limit. Any letter beyond 10, you have to pay for it. 
    • It would take around 15-20 minutes before you can have it
    • In comparison with the Boracay branch, I can say that this store in Cebu offered so many products and finishes the order fast. ( I remembered that it would take around 1 day to make a personalized shirt in boracay.)


  • Cebu Delicacies
    • They have Peanut Kisses, Otap, Dried mangoes, Candies, Dangit, Pusit, and the likes. 
    • It's a bit more expensive as compare to other stores, however, you can have the convenience of not travelling from different places. (You'll never know that the Gas or taxi fare you consume or pay is much more expensive then buying here in a One stop shop)
    • If you have an Enjoy Card ( Discount Card), you can avail a 10% Discount. --- Make sure to present it before giving the payment, because they have to write some details at a different paper. 

  • Sinulog and Cebu Shirt
    • Price : 259 to 799, depends on the design and color of the shirt. 
    • This is something unique that I saw from this store. You'll only have to pay 50 pesos, and they'll make alterations in you shirt.

I can't wait for the next Sinulog Expereince! Pit Senyor!! See you!
