    4. Sinong t@ng@ naman bibili nyan? Afford ko yan pero mga taong hindi lang gumagamit ng utak o TH magpakasosyal ang bibili nyan. Same quality lang sa tig 150 pesos na scrunchie pero magtatapon ka ng 1000+ hahahhaa ๐Ÿคฃ it's jlnot giving sosyal vibes, it's giving uto uto vibes, girl

    6. I sure can afford that. but why buy that if it's the same scrunchie sa shoppee and does the same thing?? utak mo ha

    7. Gurl I can buy a set or 2 but I would rather buy the 50 pesos scrunchies sa bangketa ang give livelihood sa totoong gumagawa at nagbebenta nito. Laking insult ng $1 donation sa ₱2000/pc price.

    8. Andami niyan sa divisoria Ati. Ginamit mo pa bahay kubo na brand name. Hindi bagay sa tinda mo. Try again!

      Delete
    9. Afford ko nman and yet this is still insulting. Like, kung gusto ko tlaga makatulong sa Pinas by buying local goods, eh punta and buy directly na lng ako sa mismong source than buying this sh*t bahay kubo store. Nakatulong pa ako sa turismo ng lugar nila.

    1. Kahit designer pa yan, a piece of cloth at elastic band. Kahit ikaw makakagawa niyan. Gamitin ang brain cells, sayang naman.

      Delete
    2. So kung Chanel yan bibilhin mo kahit nasa 5-8k ang price? I mean what’s the point kung isisipin naman ng ibang tao na nabili mo yan sa Divisoria? Ang sakit lang sa dibdib di ba? Hehe

    3. I bought lots of it because i can afford.

  3. Paano nakakalusot ang ganyan? Tsaka dapat ipagbawal yang mga tradisyonal na pangalan na related sa ph. Ano yan bahay kubo? Ano kunek? Parang masabi lang na unique or something. Nakakasira sa image ng mga Pilipino.

    1. Actually I did a quick search about her business. Nabasa ko sa About tungkol sa kung pano nag start business niya. She was clearly using her roots to promote her business. She’s Fil-British based in NY.

    2. Pano nasira image ng pilipino nyan?

    1. 11:38 if LV ok lang na mahal kasi luxury brand name.

      Delete
    2. 12:22 remove that brand name and makikita mo n their products re really not worth it. ✌️✌️

  8. Yung gamit na gamit niya ang Filipino culture and the local groups pero ang donation is P50 from a P2,000 worth item na mabebenta? I'd rather buy directly from a local artisan.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Ah, so ito pala yung meme na nakita ko sa page sa FB na may may mga nagfi-flex ng sanrio na pantali sa buhok. Hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  10. anong meron bakit mahal?? serious question.. if its from well known luxury brand maintindihan ko pa kasi you are buying the brand name. eh ito hindi naman kilalang brand so it must be the materials used.

  11. Kung namamahalan kayo, obviously you’re not the target market. Though nothing special sa tinda nya, might as well, sell it sa international market mas magkaka chance sha.

    1. But if you look at the bigger picture, it's not an issue of whether you can afford it or not. She's obviously selling it to rich people under the pretense na it's promoting Filipino culture and at the same time helping local communities/NGOs in the Philippines when the reality is singkwenta pesos lang naman ang mapupunta sa donasyon for every item na mabebenta. Pero if yung raw materials naman ay galing mismo dito sa atin at yung mga worker ay Pinoy at kumikita sila ng tama, then walang problema.

    1. Correct its just a scrunchies!!! Tpos 50 pesos lang ang donation out of 2k!? Im really not a target market if this bs dahil hndi ako st*pida

      Delete
  13. Funny that they are saying na target market is “rich” pero gamit na gamit ang “bahay kubo” which is associated with a simple pinoy life haha! How contradicting! Pinagkakitaan ang kultura at ginagawang uto uto ang tao. Palitan na lang ng “forbes mansion” lol kung yun talaga target niyo.. Ginamit pa bahay kubo

  14. Pwede ata yan isanla eh

  15. Sana ganyan din kayo manindigan laban sa mga kurakot sa gobyerno.
    Hindi ko sinasabi na okay lang magbenta ng ganyang kamahal na pantali ng buhok.
    Ang sakin lang, sana ganyang energy at dedication din ang meron ang mga commenters dito laban sa tiwaling gobyerno.
