Make the most of your Christmas with good deals and convenience at your fingertips

The minute the ber-months hit, a switch flips for us Filipinos. Christmas isn't just a single day—it's a four-month-long (maybe even five!) celebration that defines the last quarter of the year.

It’s the sweet scent of bibingka and puto bumbong warming the air after Simbang Gabi. It’s the streets glowing with vibrant lights, homes overflowing with Christmas cheers, and food becoming the non-negotiable, heartwarming center of every celebration. This is when our loved ones come home—OFWs, students, and workers returning—making every shared meal into a cherished, unforgettable family moment.

With the long list of expenses for gifts, gatherings, and decorations, Filipinos have mastered the art of the sulit celebration: maximum joy, minimum gastos. The Filipino Christmas has always been defined by diskarte (resourcefulness) and creativity: planning early, perfecting potlucks, and finding smart ways to make the season lighter on the wallet but just as full of joy. Because for us, the magic isn’t in how grand the feast is, but in how full the table feels—with laughter, love, and the people who matter most.

This Christmas, foodpanda helps Filipinos celebrate more while spending less through the PASKONA voucher, which gives up to ₱100 off on favorite dishes and essentials from beloved food spots such as KFC, Mang Inasal, Shakey’s, Pizza Hut, Popeyes, Angel’s Pizza, Kenny Rogers, Goldilocks, Pickup Coffee, and grocery partners on the app.

Beyond savings, foodpanda also brings ease and reliability to the busy holiday season—making food, gifts, and essentials just a few taps away. Whether it’s a last-minute handa, a potluck with friends, or a quick grocery run, foodpanda’s got every Filipino covered, so they can focus on what truly matters: celebrating the joy of Christmas.

Patricia Jacinto, Marketing Director of foodpanda Philippines shared that the campaign is about helping Filipinos find new ways to make the busy holiday season simpler, more affordable, and more enjoyable. “The holidays are a time for connection and celebration, but they can also be overwhelming. With foodpanda, we want to make it easier and more sulit for everyone to celebrate by bringing convenience, savings, and joy straight to their homes. We want everyone to be able to celebrate the holidays without stress,” she reflected.

It’s a simple treat that reminds everyone that Christmas magic doesn’t have to mean extravagance. Sometimes, it’s about good food, good company, and the little things that make life lighter. Because in the middle of the hustle and holiday rush, it’s nice to know that someone’s got your back when you need it most. This time, it’s foodpanda saying, “PASKONA, WE GOTCHU!”

The PASKONA voucher is valid for both new and existing customers until December 31, 2025. Check the foodpanda app for updates and make every celebration sarap-sulit this Christmas.

Getting your PSA certificate online has never been easier. Through PSAHelpline.ph, you can now order PSA birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates, CENOMAR, or CENODEATH online and choose how you want it delivered: straight to your home or ready for pick-up at one of 51 Robinsons Department Store branches nationwide.

PSAHelpline.ph is an authorized partner of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) that offers an online facility for requesting civil registry documents including PSA birth, marriage, death certificates, CENOMAR, and CENODEATH. Applicants may choose PSA delivery or pick-up at partner outlets such as Robinsons Department Store, ensuring safe and efficient access to PSA certificates nationwide.

This new PSA delivery option is perfect for individuals who cannot stay at home to receive their certificates or prefer to pick them up at a time that fits their schedule. With the Robinsons Department Store pick-up feature, you can collect your PSA documents at select department stores located in major cities and provinces across the country.

Why Choose the Robinsons Pick-Up Option?

For many Filipinos, waiting for courier delivery can be challenging especially for those with unpredictable work hours, frequent travel, or shared residences. The Robinsons Department Store pick-up option offers a practical solution:

• Flexible collection hours. Pick up your certificate at your convenience. Robinsons Department Store business centers are open during mall hours, typically from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., giving you ample time to drop by after work or errands.
• Convenient locations. With 51 branches across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, there is likely an RDS branch near your home or workplace.
• Same secure process. Just like home PSA delivery, each release requires valid ID verification to ensure the certificate goes only to the rightful owner.
• More practical and flexible. Picking up your certificate at Robinsons Department Store is also more economical than waiting for door-to-door delivery. Since PSAHelpline.ph only releases certificates directly to the owner or authorized requester, couriers cannot leave them with anyone else, not even with an authorization letter. With the pick-up option, you avoid the risk of missed deliveries and can simply claim your document when it’s convenient for you.

If you would rather not wait for a courier or risk a missed delivery, the Robinsons pick-up option lets you control when and where you receive your PSA certificate online order.

How to Order Your PSA Certificate for Robinsons Department Store Pick-Up Follow these simple steps to place your order through PSAHelpline.ph and have your document sent to your preferred Robinsons branch:

1. Visit PSAHelpline.ph.
Select the type of certificate you need: PSA birth certificate, marriage, death, CENOMAR, or CENODEATH.

2. Fill out your online application form.
Provide complete and accurate details to ensure smooth processing.

3. Choose “Pick up at Robinsons Department Store” as your delivery option.
When prompted to select a delivery method, click the RDS pick-up option.

4. Select your preferred branch.
Browse the list of 51 participating Robinsons Department Store locations and choose the one most convenient for you.

5. Pay for your order.
You can settle payment online (via credit card, GCash, Maya, or online banking) or over the counter (7-Eleven, Bayad Center, Palawan Pawnshop, Dragonpay, and more).

6. Wait for your notification.
PSAHelpline will send you an SMS and email once your certificate is ready for pick-up at your chosen Robinsons branch.

7. Claim your document.
Go to your selected Robinsons Department Store within 30 days from notification and present your valid ID and reference number.

Requirements When Claiming Your Certificate
To ensure smooth claiming, prepare the following:
• Valid government-issued ID (e.g., PhilID, passport, driver’s license) that matches the name used in your application.
• SMS or email notification from PSAHelpline confirming that your certificate is ready for pick-up.
• Order reference number from your transaction. Important reminders:
• Only the person named in the application can claim the certificate at Robinsons. Authorized representatives are not allowed for this option.
• If your name on the ID does not match the application details, you may be asked to provide supporting documents before release.
• You have 30 calendar days from the date of notification to claim your certificate before it is returned to storage.

Why This Option Works for You

The pick-up feature gives you the freedom to collect your documents on your own time whether that is during lunch break, after work, or while running errands at the mall. It is a convenient solution for employees, entrepreneurs, or anyone who prefers face-to-face claiming without the long lines at civil registry offices.

Imagine ordering your PSA birth certificate online on a Monday, getting notified midweek, and picking it up at your nearby Robinsons branch by Friday all without waiting for a courier or rearranging your schedule. That is the kind of flexibility PSAHelpline aims to provide.

By combining PSA online ordering with in-person pick-up at Robinsons Department Stores, PSAHelpline gives Filipinos a service that fits real-life routines. Whether you’re ordering for personal records, job applications, school enrollment, or travel requirements, you can get your PSA certificate online easily, securely, and on your own terms.

Skip the waiting and enjoy the convenience of mall pick-up. Order your PSA birth certificate or any PSA document through PSAHelpline.ph and choose Robinsons Department Store as your preferred pick-up point.

Bea Alonzo as the newest ambassador of Birch Tree Adult Boost.

Multi-awarded actress Bea Alonzo proudly shares how she keeps her tip-top health and shape in her strongest years with Birch Tree Adult Boost, the flagship milk brand of Century Pacific Food Inc., and the trusted adult milk brand in the Philippines.

Milk plays an important role at every stage of life as the body evolves over time. Children need it for growth and development, teens rely on it for bone health and cognition, while adults need it for bone strength and immunity. Adults, specifically, require extra vitamins and nutrients for sustenance, which is why Birch Tree Adult Boost is specially formulated to provide that support.

Birch Tree Adult Boost has the Active Tri-Boost formula that supports overall wellness in adults by providing support nutrients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D, B-vitamins, Iron, and Zinc. These nutrients help to strengthen immunity, sustain energy, and heighten brain function. Perfect for adults who want to remain healthy and energetic just like Bea. 

Bea Alonzo enjoyed a skiing adventure in her Andorra trip, showcasing her passion for active living.

“As I turn 38 this October, I become even more mindful of my health and my body, and I like challenging myself with different ways to maintain good health,” Bea shared. “I like doing workouts like push-ups, squats, planks, and other sporty activities, then I balance it with proper nutrition. Birch Tree Adult Boost gives me that extra support so I can keep up with my busy lifestyle,” she added.

As an award-winning actress and entrepreneur, Bea has built a strong reputation both in entertainment and in business. With her passion for travel and discovering new experiences, she proves that life gets better as we reach our peak years. “We wanted to highlight how milk isn’t just for kids, it’s just as important for adults who want to stay strong, energized, and overall healthy. That’s why we partnered with Bea Alonzo for Birch Tree Adult Boost. She embodies the idea that age is not a limit, you can be at your best at every stage of your life,” shared Greg Banzon, Executive Vice President & Chief Operations Officer of Century Pacific Food, Inc.
