Promo Alert: 50% off On Your Next 7 Uber Rides

Gone are the days of Friday Traffic Mayhem as it is now happening daily. It’s getting worse and worse. And when you finally reach your destination… SURPRISE, party in the parking lot! But I am so thankful for cab apps like Uber and GrabTaxi for making it more bearable living in the city.
Lately, I noticed that Uber’s fare is cheaper than GrabTaxi’s (or even a normal cab’s). And to make things even better, I got an email from Uber that they are slashing 50% off my next 7 rides until July 26! Yes, SEVEN rides!
I was thrilled and the first thing that came to mind was, “Where should I go?”
But nope… too busy. Then again, it did help me save the company some money when I went out for a meeting.

My fares from Taguig to Makait and back were just PHP55 and PHP51 versus the usual PHP120! Oh yeaaaaah!
I also went to SM Aura to buy some bed sheets (duvet covers are 50% at Living Well!) and with surcharge, I just paid PHP50.

At first, I thought that all Uber users get the same deal but M just got 20% off and K doesn’t even have any discount. So you better check your email first before booking.

P.S. You might also want to try GrabCar. You get PHP100 off your fare when you use the promo code umbrella.

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!
