Christmas List #1: “Overruns” Store at Retiro
Buy One Take One is one of our secret stores when it comes to overruns… since we’ve posted it here its no longer a top secret 
For most people, Surplus shop is there super duper top secret store hehehe but honestly, not all items in Surplus shop is authentic overruns. You must be keen to know if you’re holding a real piece of what we call “Good find!”.
Anyway, Buy One Take One is a very unattractive store. You won’t even bother to stop and check it out if you’re passing by Retiro St. in Quezon City… You may even think that this store is selling “UK” stuff (Ukay-ukay) hehehe 
… However, since it’s just beside Monterey after buying our weekly meat supply, we decided to check this out for ourselves as to satisfy our curiosity.
To our surprise, they have brands that we would never thought we could find in an overrun store. That time they have trench coats of top signature labels. We even got RL shirts that are really really authentic! … You might think how do we know the RL shirts are authentic!? … We are fan of signature brands and since 1999 we are already selling brands like RL, Tommy, Nautica, Banana Rep and the like…. (However, ours are from the US )
Recently, they had an over supply of items so they had this Php 100 sale. All items at Php 100! Whew that was a steal! We can’t believe it ourselves! A set of Winnie the pooh/Disney Princess top and pants for kids was way too exciting! Old Navy shirts for men at Php 100 was even more exciting!
Their stocks runs out fast since they sell it cheap. We have here some pix of our last visit at Buy One Take One. Each shirt is only Php 50. A great deal for our little princess.
^ Off-white shirt and black top (both Old Navy for 12mos-18mos size), Thomas the train (for 3y/o boy)
So, if you’re in the area try to check this out. Stocks varies depending on their shipment. Always wish that when you drop by they have nice stuff available. But according to “kuya”, their supervisor they have new stocks coming starting this week for the Christmas season. Don’t worry for their old stocks since they have a newly opened branch in divisoria … that’s were they put all slow moving items at the same price of Php100… So, why bother to go to their new branch since this place is way too convenient to buy. … Oh, they even have a branch at greenhills, but of course at GH price
Happy Shopping!:)

Hi! Ang sabi nung bantay sa retiro, it’s infront of tutuban but no exact stall number whatsoever. Yung sa retiro, depende talaga sa dating ng stocks nila. Andun kami last week, yung mga nagustuhan namin walang available size (mr and mrs baratmode) pero nakabili kami ng gap overrun na swimsuit para sa baby girl namin
madami naman silang stocks palagi, depende lang talaga kung may magustuhan ka
