For Wilfred Dy, what began as a casual search for a way to convert bank rewards points to something more useful became the rewarding experience of his life. The 53-year-old stockbroker from Binondo, Manila is the grand winner of the much-coveted GetGo Points to a Million promo.
“I was really excited when I heard about the promo. I’m a Citibank cardholder and I’ve earned so many points from my everyday purchases. I thought, saan ko kaya siya pwede magamit,” shares Dy. Fortunately, the answer to his question popped out when he heard about GetGo’s biggest bank-wide promo.
As a loyal GetGo member, Dy was thrilled to hear that the lifestyle rewards program is giving its bank partners’ cardholders a chance to win 1 million GetGo points. With this much points, he thought about the many beautiful countries that he and his family can visit and explore.
Lucky GetGo member Wilfred Dy becomes an instant millionaire from easily converting his credit card points to GetGo points.
“For the three years that I’ve been a GetGo member, lagi lang ako nakakakuha ng points from grocery shopping. So, when I found out about this promo, I decided to convert my Citibank points to GetGo points to get those raffle entries for me and my family,” he recounts. “Pero it wasn’t until the last day of the promo that I converted my credit card points and luckily, I won.”
Before winning the promo, Dy has already been enjoying fun travels within and outside of the country. There was even a year when he flew more than five times for leisure trips. Now, as a GetGo Points Millionaire, he is taking his travel lifestyle to new and exciting heights with free flights!
“I was shocked ‘nung may tumawag sa akin from GetGo. It was just a normal morning on my way to work and when I answered the call, I was grateful to have received the good news,” Dy remarked when asked about what he felt when he learned that he won the promo.
Among the destinations that he is excited to fly to with his GetGo points are different international countries, including South Korea and Japan.
Just like Dy, you can also experience a fun and fulfilling lifestyle with GetGo. The rewards program of Cebu Pacific will stop at nothing to bring amazing travel possibilities as they continue to make daily activities like shopping, dining, watching movies, and fueling up more rewarding with points to fly for free. Who knows? You might be the next GetGo Points Millionaire!

Photos and videos of matinee idol John Lloyd Cruz have been surfacing after being on hiatus from the show business since 2017.
Cruz, one of the most bankable actors of the Philippine cinema and very effective endorser once again proved that his fans are still waiting for his return. In a teaser video, which lasted only for a few seconds and only shows the back shot of Cruz’s, and posted in the Facebook page of the number one selling shawarma Turks a few weeks ago had been viewed 3.2M times, shared almost 800 times and gained a huge number of comments.
Without
any clue in that teaser video, his fans already assumed that it was him in the
video. Actress Bea Alonzo on her Instagram also posted a screenshot of that
teaser video, which garnered almost a million likes.
This
Monday morning Turks finally revealed in the 1-minute and 17 seconds video of
Cruz showing the actor walking through different destinations, which somehow
depicts Cruz’s sojourn. The video is very simple, yet there’s drama the way it
was created, and in a very subtle shot, he stopped and took a bite of a Turks
pita donner.
The rugged look of Cruz in the Turks video titled Ang Pagbabalik is way too far from his guy-next-door image and a lot of people in the industry are asking if this signals his return to the limelight. His fans are still wondering about the life he’s been living since his hiatus.
According
to Turks president Gem L. Zenarosa that during the course of his talks with
Cruz, they never talked anything about his showbiz career or plans. He added
that he got Mr. Cruz as the latest ambassador of Turks because of his great
confidence working with Cruz.
“I
am really grateful that John Lloyd trusts our company, he is a brilliant and
very creative young man. Aside from acting we have discovered some of his
remarkable talents,” Zenarosa stressed.
The
Ang Pagbabalik according to Zenarosa is actually about Turks Small Pita Doner,
which will be available again in all its branches.
“John
Lloyd is the best endorser for this because like him, despite his absence in
the showbusiness for a couple of years, the warmth and love of his fans for him
never dwindles. With our Small Pita Doner we believe that our customers will be
happy to know that it is back in our menu,” Zenarosa explained.
Just like Cruz who is seen to have a different image since he last appeared in the big screen, a clear indication that the actor is recreating himself and exploring different grounds, Turks is also doing the same thing to keep its customers excited whenever they visit a branch.
In
time for the release of Cruz’s endorsement video, Turks also released to the
market its newest offering — Turks Rice Bowl, which is a complete meal. You
can choose beef or chicken for your rice topping, and it is priced at P50. The
Small Pita Donner on the other hand, is priced at P35.
“To
keep up with the demands of our customers, Turks continues to improve our menu
and offerings to satisfy the discriminating taste of our loyal patrons,”
Zenarosa stressed.
John Lloyd Cruz now joins the roster of endorsers of Turks such as Piolo and Inigo Pascual. To watch the full video of Ang Pagbabalik visit https://youtu.be/Uh0WwLnIEDQ. You can also watch the video on Turk FB page: official.turks

Shopee, the leading
e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, dove deep into the data of
its users in the Philippines to uncover key consumers insights on online
shopping in the country. Tapping on its deep understanding of the tastes and
preferences of Filipino shoppers, Shopee introduces the Shopee 5.5 Double

Marketing at Shopee Philippines.
Shopee reveals 3
key online shopping trends in the Philippines for 2019, ahead of Shopee 5.5
Double Double Sale:
More Filipinos are shopping online
Metro Manila
continued to be the online shopping capital of the Philippines, with the most
orders recorded on Shopee since the turn of the year. However, online shopping
is quickly becoming the norm nationwide, as Mindanao and Visayas are seeing
rapid growth in online shopping activity on Shopee.
Shopee is also becoming the preferred e-commerce platform for Filipinos to find their favorite products. This is apparent as the number of keyword searches in the first quarter of 2019 increased by 2.5 times compared to the same period last year. Filipinos search most often for terms related to Electronics, Health and Beauty, and Fashion; with Xiaomi, Maybelline, and Vans among the most-searched brands so far in 2019.
2.Geography shapes online shopping habits in the Philippines
Shopee has found
that online shopping preferences differ across regions in the Philippines. For
users in Metro Manila, Health & Beauty and Electronics are the top
categories with Xiaomi, Realme, and Honor as the leading smartphone brands. In
fact, Realme sold over 1,000 units of its brand-new Realme 3 smartphone in two
flash sales, with the first flash sale on March 25 selling out in under an
hour.
For shoppers
outside the capital, they prefer to buy Fashion products online as they benefit
from a massive assortment of products and styles. In Visayas and Mindanao,
Korean-styled apparel and footwear are the most purchased items.
Filipino online shoppers are also most active during lunch and before bed. For instance, Shopee users from Metro Manila tend to shop online from 12NN to 2 PM. Meanwhile, users in Mindanao and Visayas are most active from 8 to 10 PM.
3.Men are shopping online more often, and more widely
Finally, men are
shopping online more as e-commerce becomes the norm in the Philippines.
Shopping among male users has more than doubled on Shopee in the first quarter
of 2019 compared to the same time last year.
Men are also more actively shopping for Fashion and Beauty products, aside from conventional categories such as Electronics and Gaming. Online shopping for skincare items is becoming especially common for men, with face masks ranking among the top 10 most popular products for male Shopee users in the first quarter of 2019.
Shopee 5.5 Double Double Sale: 8 days of unbeatable deals catered to Filipinos’ shopping habits
Taking place from April
28 to May 5, Shopee 5.5 Double Double Sale features 8 days of unbeatable deals
