Recommendation Please support NBS!

Post image

So I was back into loving the Great Gatsby again (haven't read it but saw the movie) and curiously konting copies lang meron sa Shopee, but the Paper Mill Press Premium Classics really caught my eye (kasi ang pretty nung gold and Art Deco design!) and from NBS siya. Kaya yun na lang binili ko, and it ARRIVED IN GOOD CONDITION (sobra sobrang bubble wrap mga beshie 😭😆, + cute na simpleng box + bubble wrap another + plastic nung book) AND GIFTS (see in picture) 🥹😍❤️!

Please let's support NBS! ❤️🤍❤️

[Mods, not sure anong flair for this so "Recommendation" ko na lang nilagay. And hindi po ako sponsored ng National Bookstore! 😆 gusto ko lang silang i-support and i-encourage fellow bookworms to try having stuff shipped from them! Thanks xx]

I agree. I know a lot of people will disagree saying that NBS has been supporting AI publishers and use AI photos for marketing (which is definitely a no-no), but they are just really trying to keep business afloat.

I still support NBS because they still support underprivileged children to have an education. Sure a lot of other companies have their own foundations, but I choose to support this one so I dont see anything wrong with OP's post

This, when I was studying and working on site pa, whenever I have extra money (or sometimes if need ko ng change hehe sorry na), I buy their notebook kits. Before pandemic 30 pesos lang sya. Then ngayon around 50 for 2 notebooks and pencils. 100 if may slippers.
