MANILA, Philippines - For on-the-go couples, finding time to plan and have a perfect date has become an almost impossible feat because of hectic schedules and other priorities. Aside from the fact that organizing a memorable date takes so much time and money, putting together the details of a perfect rendezvous sometimes requires the skill of a professional organizer.
So when the opportunity to enjoy a perfect date comes along, it’s a-once-in-a-lifetime chance you grab with total anticipation.
That’s exactly how Patricia Estanislao felt when she won an exclusive and romantic Mamma Mia! Broadway package from the Citibank and Rustan’s raffle promo.
A Citibank cardholder, Patricia received a sweet date package that consisted of two orchestra tickets for Mamma Mia!, a luxurious Jaguar experience to bring them to their destination completed their night with a dinner for two at the posh Mabuhay Palace in Manila Hotel.
The romantic evening started as a Jaguar picked up Patricia and husband Peter from home and were driven to Manila Hotel for the dinner date at Mabuhay Palace. Afterwards, the Jaguar whisked them off to the Cultural Center of the Philippines for the show.
“It was unforgettable. The dinner was great, the ride was fabulous and the show was so much fun,” she said.
It was a first time experience for Patricia to win in a raffle. “When they (Citibank) called, I couldn’t believe I won. I didn’t have to fill out any raffle stub because it turns out entries were generated electronically. I was so happy because it was a different experience,” explained Estanislao.
A Citibank cardholder for more than a decade, Estanislao shared that Citibank has always presented the best and rewarding deals. “Citibank allows me to redeem a lot of freebies through Reward Points and they (Citibank) always offer promotions that are relevant to me and to my family.”
As for the rewarding, well-organized romantic date, Patricia says she will never forget that night, because it had all the essential elements of a dream date, and she and hubby didn’t have to lift a finger or pay for anything to enjoy it. Because of this, “I’ll always be loyal to my Citibank card,” she exclaimed.
Oliver Dexter Sy, another winner, shared, “I was pleasantly surprised when I received a call from Citibank informing me that I won. Watching Mamma Mia! brought back so much memories, not to mention the fantastic ABBA songs. We couldn’t help but get up on our feet and dance and sing to the songs! It was indeed a retro in the metro weekend. Being a Citibank client indeed has its rewards. Thank you so much for the experience!”
