If you clicked on this blog post, you're probably just interested in the discount, and if that's the case just scroll down to the bottom of the post to get the link to sign up. But before you do, let me share my experience shopping with the Honestbee service for the first time.
So it's currently monsoon season in Manila, and it's raining almost every day. I absolutely hate going outside when it's raining. But sometimes you have to. We have to buy food and groceries so we can just stay home and cook food and survive for a week before having to go out again. But what if you don't need to go out and buy groceries yourself? What if you can get someone else to do it while you're just sitting at home and watching Kdrama (I'm watching Pinnochio right now and I'm in love with Lee Jong Suk)? Well now you can (depending on your location of course) wahaha
Honestbee is Asia's leading online concierge and delivery service. They've been around since 2015 and launched in Singapore. They're now available in 8 cities including Manila. In Layman's terms. The Honestbee service can get your groceries (and even food) delivered right at your house.

So I've heard of "personal shopper" services before similar to Honestbee but I never tried one before. When I tried this out, it was simple and was pretty straight forward. Here's how to do it:
1. Sign up to Honestbee using this link https://honestbee.ph/r/ANAP4150
2. Search for the items on the Honestbee app/site like you would on Lazada and add items to your cart.
3. Fill your cart and select check out. The site will ask you for your phone number and preferred delivery time. The phone number is required so that the shopper can confirm if you want any substitute for out of stock items. And if the delivery slots are already full, you might need to wait until the next day to get your groceries.
4. Payment method can be via credit/debit card or cash on delivery. The 500 promo coupon will only work when your cart total is equal to or greater than the required amount. Then click on place order.
5. Once you place the order, it's just a matter of waiting for your groceries to show up at your doorstep. :)
My order took roughly 3 hours from the time I checked out until I received it.
The delivery guy was soaking coz it was raining crazy hard when I tried this. The Rainy season is the perfect season to use this service!
Oh another interesting thing that wasn't mentioned anywhere. YOU GET FREE HONESTBEE ECOBAGS!!
The price of the items may vary a little bit by 1 peso from the usual price at the mall but to have to skip the lines, and skip the effort of looking for the items at the grocery yourself is well worth the price bump. My total bill was around 1600 and with the discount, I still paid for 1100. Remember that you still have to pay P99 for the concierge fee but since that's technically the same price as a one-way Uber to the mall then we're good.
So that's my first try of Honestbee and to be honest it was pretty good. It was convenient, simple and easy. Definitely recommend you to try it. But don't just take my word for it. Try it out for yourself with a P500 discount. Click on my referral link below and sign up! :D
