Oh dear, here it comes. Toys R Us is finally opening in Manila on July 1st (it was supposed to open in April). We still remember our first Toys R Us experience. In Taipei, of all places. They had shopping bags big enough to fit our thirteen-year-old bodies inside. Wow! They were selling toys by the grocery cart-ful. Double wow! But this was no match for our first glimpse of the Toys R Us flagship store in Times Square, NYC. Two-storey Barbie dollhouse! Life-size Tyrannosaurus Rex! A full-blown ferris wheel inside the store!

Nothing ruins a trendy working girl’s outfit like a hulking black laptop bag. Lugging all that weight around is punishment enough, but must we look like pack mules, too? Thank goodness chic and colorful Pinder bags are now available in the Philippines. These nylon lovelies have won praises from the editors of Cargo and Lucky magazines in the US. The gadget phreaks at PC World and CNET have given nods of approval, too.
