Grab your friends for a fun summer and shop big discounts at Robinsons Department Store
via GRAPHIC PLUS — Summer is so close we can almost feel it. The last couple of months were all about planning your goals for the rest of the year. Now that it’s March, it’s time to try out a new hobby or book that much-needed trip with friends.
There are a number of fun ways to enjoy this summer, which also means shopping for essentials to be sun-ready. Fortunately, Robinsons Department Store’s Payday Sale from March 13 to 15, 2026 will offer discounts of up to ₱1,000 off on selected “Favorite Brands” and exclusive perks from select banks. So you can save more for all the activities you might have planned, like these ones:
- Pick up pickleball
The pickleball hype is still alive and well – and this is your sign to finally try it out. Once you get the basics down, you’ll find that it’s a relatively easy sport to play alone or with friends. It’s also a great way to meet new people this summer. Be stylish and comfortable with sportswear and shoes.
- Touch grass at a picnic
Malls are usually the go-to place during summer, but nothing beats a chill picnic at a nearby park with loved ones and your pets in tow. Pack some kitchen and dining essentials for your home-cooked baon. Don’t forget to bring sunscreen as well!
- Go to a local beach you’ve never been to
The Philippines has some of the best beaches in the world, and there are still so many that you can explore. Aside from the usual Boracay and Palawan, plan a beach trip to places like Batangas, Zambales, and Bantayan Island. Travel in style with eye-catching luggage and swimsuits.
- Go on a quiet hobby date
Hobby dates don’t have to be extravagant – you can have a fun, quiet time doing watercolor painting, baking cakes, and making ceramics. It’s also a great way to strengthen bonds with loved ones, while also learning a new hobby this season. Prepare for your upcoming dates with a trendy summer look.
