[@laynefischer2021]

It’s funny how we foreigners go to Philippines 🇵🇭 and we become tight ass. The 🚕 taxis don’t make that much money you know. And we haggle on everything .But in our own countries we say nothing at our local malls and supermarkets.we don’t mind paying $3 dollars AU for a can coke or top dollar for our groceries even though the veg is a week old .. gets me how the foreigner becomes sooo tight in a country where we know the ppl work hard for little and don’t waste there money on sh#@ like we do it’s for there foods . So ppl when you catch a taxi or buy from markets just think does it really matter if we pay a extra 100 or 200 php / a few dollars !!!

[@AboutIssa]

Layne Fischer I don’t think it’s about being a “tight ass”. It’s more about budgeting. When I travel other countries I allocate just a certain amount of money and usually don’t have room to adjust so if I can save a few dollars by haggling, I would do so. My biggest fear is running out of money while traveling in case of an emergency so I try to save as much as I can when I can during my travels. The best way to not have to haggle though? Research how much things usually are in the country before traveling so you know if it’s the regular price and you can budget for it.

[@laynefischer2021]

@@AboutIssa hey understand that fully lssa but ppl should remember its a 3 world country why not budget a bit extra for the ppl there . So do u tip ??? I do, mate none of us like giving money away , all I'm saying isn't it funny how in our own country we except the over inflated price of a can coke . And say nothing

[@minim6981]

@@laynefischer2021 because it cost over $1,000 just to get to the Philippines, so yes, when I get there, I'm expecting to pay local prices and save money.

[@OneHeartuk09]

Layne Fischer First of all, thank you for your generosity, I’m sure you make people happy and there’s nothing wrong with it. I for one find it so tempting to give extra especially if they are so nice but then again some people don’t always have extra money like some people do, we’d rather not make a culture in the Philippines that passengers have to give extra for most of the time because we don’t want them to expect it from passengers as a norm and really people should be able to take taxis with a right amount of money with no guilt of giving tips to drivers because that’s exactly what we want from them , the openness and honesty when it comes to taxi fares. Whilst we appreciate people ‘s generosity it can have a negative effect in the long term which may not always be in favour of the commuting public, and really we’d rather have a culture of not giving taxi tips in the Philippines to eliminate future discrimination to people who can’t always afford. Peace x

[@laynefischer2021]

Miri M $1000 u don’t mind paying that! I said why is it we haggling to get the price a few Pesos cheaper. I never said anything about not paying the local prices. $1k to get there u doing all right any. Try $1600 . Next time just think what a few extra pesos will do for a Filipino... guess ur not a tipper either ,if your $1k is a lot .. lol I’m just stating the facts.

[@OneMoreVacation]

We were amazed by Spiral Buffet Breakfast too! We have been to many countries and to many 5 star hotel breakfast buffets...BUT Spiral is really unbeatable! Some 5 star hotels have like 2-3 cheese kinds placed on the buffet. At Spiral, there is a Cheese Room with some waiters just taking care of like 20-30 different kinds of cheese...Everyone should try this Spiral Breakfast Buffet at Sofitel Manila...We are not a fan of the hotel itself, we like Peninsula Manila much more but Spiral Buffet is a must to try while in Manila ✔
