While I was about to go to Robinsons Place Lipa for some window
shopping and peace of mind while checking my Facebook news feed on my
smartphone, I was a bit surprised when I saw an S&R Membership Shopping booth
right in front of McDonalds and I quickly thought that it could be possible
that it will come to the City For All Seasons coming soon. Then I remembered
that I have literally picked out and read a ruffled copy of an S&R brochure
on the way to the mall just a days before I saw the booth.
What I've seen over the past few weeks as far as I can remember is, in
my mind, a sensible answer to the speculations that come up on various social
media accounts regarding the lifestyle side of Lipa City. If it is possible by
either the end of the year or next year, then many residents and tourists in
the city and even the province of Batangas and Southern Luzon will get to
experience the benefits of premium membership shopping in the near future with
the impending arrival of S&R in my own hometown.
What can LipeƱos and BatangueƱos expect from S&R's world-class
premium shopping experience? Well, like other S&R stores, the Lipa branch
will offer only but the best and finest products that are rarely or likely seen
in supermarkets and convenience stores situated around the city. Shoppers who have
acquired premium Platinum or Gold membership may enjoy a lot of perks and benefits
while they shop. Heck, they can even use their S&R membership card at a renouned
gasoline station near it.
