OAP Contest Winners

Thanks to all who responded to the OAP Readers Survey. We got 500+ responses to date and I had to significantly change some of my blog strategy based on your responses. I'll keep the survey open until end of June. Salamat po ng marami!

As part of cleaning up, I would like to close out the past contests conducted in OAP. Sorry for not announcing the winners properly, and I would like to announce them in this post. Moving forward, I plan to do monthly contests on food and travel related topics. Let me know if you have any contest ideas or suggestions.

Congratulations to the winners! :) Thank you Anton for setting up this cool contest!

To jeckay: National Bookstore and Ministop branches only carry a limited number of genki umbrella stocks. If you can visit Cinderella outlets in SM Megamall, Glorietta, and Alabang Town Center, they carry lots of genki umbrellas in all available colors :)
