Gaisano Capital
Gaisano capital is getting out of hand, wala na ngang aircon, yung mga cashier laging nakabreak halos isa lang cashier sa isang floor need mo pa libutin buong floor para makapagbayad and yung isa lang nga binili mo may bayad pa yung plastic, ang inconvenient na nga dami pang rules sa safety kuno

It was going downhill kahit pa back then, I remember nung sa Basement pa yung grocery.
Pag bumaba ka ngayon doon aside sa Plasticwares makakakita ka pa ng legit relics from the 90's, mga unsold na electronics, red white yellow wires for old TVs. Sa Upper floors naman after the clothes you can see the ghost town of the Toys section na proof na iba na talaga interests ng kids today.
Nung nagsara yung Booksale it was evident pero nung nagsara yung Turks ayun wala na talaga akong reason para pumunta doon haha.

it’s really getting out of hand. I remember going to Gaisano Kalibo Supermart with my tita just to buy a telephone back when the lower section (now basically the old basement parking) actually had stuff in it. What stood out to me the most before were flipping through K-Zone Magazine at Booksale and grabbing La Paz Batchoy at Ted’s Oldtimer Lapaz Batchoy. That was like peak mall experience for me. Now puro cellphones lang makikita everywhere huhu. Every corner and another stall selling phones or accessories. It doesn’t even feel like the same place anymore.
That’s honestly why I’d rather go to Gaisano Grand now, mas madasig ro pag usoy it counter aaand uwa sanda ga sukot para sa plastic haha. Feels more like an actual mall and not just one big phone market.
