Powerbooks is having a warehouse sale in Brixton St. in Barrio Kapitolyo in Pasig. The selection is fairly good but it was as hot as hell in that warehouse (the common complaint). The books are at least 20% off (even more for stickered copies, up to 70% or a specific price). For example, their Harry Potter 6 hardbound sells for P499.00. Yesterday, I got a copy of Frank Miller's Sin City: Family Values for 400-something pesos, but it was as hot as hell in that warehouse. If you have a book in mind that you want to buy at a discounted price, there's not really a good chance that you may find it. But you might as well take a look. Did I mention that it was as hot as hell in that warehouse? At least the children's section and the cashiers are in airconditioned rooms.
You can try to park inside the warehouse itself if there's space available or you can park outside in the streets. They say that new bargains are coming in everyday so for book lovers, it's time to get lucky. You can pay in cash or credit card.

there's a place here similar to that - Strand Bookstore. they finally renovated the place and fixed the air-conditioning.
but before, it was a sauna with books all over during the summer.
This one's really a warehouse. Couldn't they just distribute the books to their airconditioned stores?
hahaha! oo nga. im sure the conditions really dont help maintain the quality of the books.
