Ready, set, school sale

MANILA, Philippines - After a summer of sleeping late, lounging at the beach, and having DVD marathons every day, all night long, the alarm bell is preparing to sound, and the first day of school can be a rude awakening. 

So this May 15 to 17, let Robinsons Malls and Union Bank help you prepare for a worry-free start to the school year with its “Ready, Set, School Sale.” Make a list of your school must-haves and you will surely find them there at discounts up to 50 percent.

Whether you are an anxious “freshie” or a confident senior, heading back to school signals a time of transition. Here are five things to remember for a happy start of the school year:

1. Start getting in that schoolday routine before school starts. Yes, that means sleeping early.

2. Whether it’s getting the lead role in the school play or just having a clean attendance record, set yourself some goal.

3. Don’t forget to eat breakfast: it’s the most important meal of the day. 

4. Nothing excites a student more than to shop for new school stuff. And the “Ready, Set, School Sale” is just the perfect time to stock up on your school must-haves. Robinsons Malls will extend its mall hours until midnight on May 15, with regular mall hours for May 16 and 17. On May 15, a live remote broadcast from Magic 89.9 will happen at Robinsons Galleria and Robinsons Place Manila and on 101.1 Yes FM at Robinsons Starmills.
