    yes... it's official!!! the start of christmas shopping for most of us... which leads me to the question: where do you get your balikbayan boxes?

    as you all know, i'm expecting my first baby soon so I won't be able to go home to Pinas this year. So with that, I'm thinking of sending over my Christmas gifts via balikbayan box. Where do you guys get one? Would like the cheapest one of course.. eerrrr... wouldn't want a jumbo box though.. just the middle of the range one..

    thanks! ;):)

    PS: I love the new layout Kuya! x

    We use Forex. Here is the website:-

    Never had any issues with them.

    Balikbayan box service really depends on where you live and also where you want the box delivered to.

    I've heard LBC are now much improved and have expanded their pick-up locations.

    I don't have any experience with LBC, just noticed how much they advertise on TFC.

    Now it's the first ber you should probably get in quick...

    Kuya, get packing and sending, you may need stuff over there which your normal carrier may charge for.
