Free Max’s Crispy Pata from My BDO Credit Card

This is a very overdue post.

It was November last year when I learned about this deal from BDO credit cards from my sister Gabby. I no longer receive my monthly bill via mail because I enrolled my card in their electronic statement of account to lessen my carbon footprint. Because of that, I am not aware whatever deals are on going.

I had several purchases worth PhP3000 plus at that time. It was December when I first claimed my Crispy Pata or should I say 2 Crispy Patas. The waiter at Max’s The Medical City said I am the only one who they saw claimed the freebie all by myself.


Do not be fooled, I did not eat all of those by myself. I just ate just a little of both then asked the waiter to pack them to take home.

We claimed another 2 Crispy Patas last December 30 after we bought my mom’s laptop. I have another charge slip with me and I am planning to claim it with my friends/office mates this week.

So far, this is the BDO credit card promo that I exhausted.

McDonald’s Breakfast

Last December, Connie and I, together with our girls, finally met each other after a few years of not seeing each other.

We agreed to meet at McDonald’s Alabang Town Center branch because it is located near our places. When we arrived, Connie is not yet there so we decided to order for breakfast first. I have the two girls with me and my mom. My mom took charge of the ordering. I just told her that we will have pancakes and hash brown. I handed her my purse to get money as I carried Maxyn.

A few minutes later, Connie, their girls and Gino arrived. We chatted in between bites while Dicey and Ayex played in the play area. It was a short meet up but better than none at all. I hope this year we could meet up more often.


A few weeks ago, I was running late for work and I have not had any breakfast. I decided that I will just buy from the newly opened McDonald’s near my workplace. I ordered for a pancake without drinks and hash brown. I was so surprised that the cashier was asking me for PhP70. I looked at their menu and found that my bill is correct.

I realized after I got my food that it was very long ago when I was the one who paid for a McDonald’s breakfast. My last memory of a pancake meal’s price is PhP29 that is why I was so surprised with my bill! I told myself that I will never have pancakes from McDonald’s ever again because we always have pancake mix at home. Next time, I will just have a Sausage McMuffin with Egg.

Catching Up

Hello Everyone! How are you all? I hope all of you had a wonderful and memorable Christmas celebration. I’ve been offline since Christmas Eve and while I really meant to catch up on my blogging, my schedule just won’t permit me to go online.

My family is now here in Las Pinas, in my mom’s place, where we will stay until after the New Year. I have plans of meeting with various groups to catch up and it started last night.

Last night, I met with my college girlfriends and we had dinner at Kanin Club in West Gate, Alabang. I will post a review of the place in another entry. I like their Crispy Dinuguan and Bagoong Rice. Thanks to all my girlfriends who totally exerted effort to make this post-Christmas celebration come true.

My next schedule would include meet ups with my online mommy friends and Elementary friends. I really hope I can meet them all before we go back to Quezon City. And I also hope I can blog all the posts waiting for me. Wish me luck!
