Lucky Day: Free Ride c/o GrabTaxi

Going to places in Manila can be tough. Having a car helps but traffic will always be another issue. If you commute, it’s even harder. And since I’m a little paranoid, especially at night, safety has always been a concern of mine hence I do not mind paying a bit more as long as I’m sure that I’ll get home safe. This is why I am so in love with the apps GrabTaxi and Uber.

Okay, I have to admit; I used to hate GrabTaxi.  There were instances when I finally got a cab and then the driver does not show up. And when I try to get in touch with the driver, he would reason out that he got another passenger or what-have-you. WHAT THE?!

This is the reason why I started using Uber and I was pretty happy with it. The surcharge though was a turnoff. I once paid around PHP400 for a usual PHP120 ride. Anyway, I’m still happy with Uber.

But today, GrabTaxi made me really happy. I got to ride its Sexy Fox cab.

The best part was it was a FREE RIDE!

Yes, it’s free. GrabTaxi deploys 30 Sexy Fox cabs daily and they randomly pick passengers for a free ride to wherever! Woohoo!

Thank you, GrabTaxi.

(Oh, in case you’re wondering, this is not a sponsored post. I’m just happy to score a free ride today.)
