The popularity of online shopping has grown by leaps and bounds these past few years. Its appeal of convenience is such a hit especially for busy people, who do not have the time to actually visit a physical store and shop. I cannot count the many times it has become a lifesaver and made this mum’s life a whole lot easier.
The SM Store, the largest department store chain in the Philippines, recently launched its online shopping platform, ShopSM.com. I was able to order last week and I am sharing top 3 things I love about the experience.
Convenience To Shop For The SM Store Essentials Online
ShopSM has put together a wide array of The SM Store essential products in one place. This is most convenient for mums like me who live far away from an SM branch, and would either have to travel as far as Baliuag or Quezon City to go to an SM store. Now I can shop for brands like Kultura, Parisian, or Watsons right in the comfort and safety of my home. Products are also conveniently divided into different categories for an even better browsing convenience. And, did I mention you can also use your SM Advantage Card when you shop?
Cash-On-Delivery Options
One of the things that I love about ShopSM is their COD options. Now you do not have to worry if you do not have online banking or the time to send payment elsewhere. Simply opt for the COD option and pay for your orders when they arrive. Just a tip ~ make sure to have the exact amount on the ready for an even faster transaction with the courier.
Affordable Shipping
One thing that puts me off about online shopping is the extra cost its shipping incurs. Not in this case, though, as for my order of two pairs of shorts for my little man, I only had to pay Php99 for shipping. This is the lowest shipping fee I have paid so far.

Mum’s Two Cents
I am looking for comfortable shorts for my little man as he is about to outgrow the pairs he owns. It was also the biggest size from the previous brand we used to buy for him that I am in need of another option. Good thing I found these textured easy shorts from Baleno at ShopSM.com. The one in size Small is just about the right size for my not-so-little man.
Here is a description of the product from the site:
- Poly-cotton
- Mid-rise
- Gartered waistband with drawstring closure
- Side and back pockets
- Textured
- Above the knee length
- Comfortable regular fit
- For easy-going days
- SKU Code: DSP-13545545
- Model wears size Large
- Model’s body measurements: 35″ chest x 30″ waist x 35″ hips x 5’10” height
I got 2 pairs for my little man, one in black and another in gray. The estimated delivery of my orders are between 11-14 January, and, as promised, I got an SMS from the courier early this morning to expect my parcel today. I love the soft yet textured fabric and it fits just about right.
Indeed, they’ve got it at ShopSM.com! It was such a hassle-free and convenient online shopping experience. Shop now experience the convenience of shopping yourself. Do not forget to avail of their products on sale for up to 50% off. Happy online shopping!
