Oh yeah! It's the month of December and it means that Christmas shopping is back and our local tianggees and bazaar are just there in every corner of the city and because that I started this shopping project and hunt for the best gifts for Christmas, we're going to cover some of the most popular shops, stores, malls and bazaars. In this post, we feature the 10th World Bazaar in World Trade Center and this is my 3rd leg of the Christmas gift hunt. The bazaar started last December 3, 2010 and it will end on December 20. There's an entrance fee of P50 and the venue occupied by hundreds of vendors.
more feature below
Photo of the ticket booth, you are required to pay P50 in order to enter the bazaar, and the other photo is my bazaar ticket. They will tear the stub of your ticket after entering and then they will put an inked stamp to your wrist, so that you can show that stamp if you will enter the bazaar again on that day.
- the weird and funny mascot of the World Bazaar, and named it "Woobie" I start to imagine of the mascot is a globe, a keso de bola or a holiday ham.

and my target here is to find some toys, gadgets and other weird and useful items
I just can't bare to look at these bootleg toys

- more bootleg toys, saw some Transformers bootleg, it is very tempting to buy a Devastator ROTF bootleg priced at P1k, I know the quality sucks but it looks like the original, I just dont know when can I afford to buy the original version with a P7k price tag.

- Amazing adventure kid custom video, priced at P800, you can now have a custom story video of your kid, all you need to do is bring a photo and they will add the photo headshot of your kid as the main character in the video.

another toy store, I'm kinda disappointed that their sale persons stopped me from taking photos of their items, I told them that I document the items here for my blog and I'm a toy collector,but then they still refuse to let me take a photo, I asked for the name of the owner, and the sales person said that their boss is a Chinese guy. Ohhhhkay... could be an illegal alien. hmm.
