Free Delivery Box to the Philippines!!

Yahooo!!! I just won a Free Delivery of a Regular Box to the Philippines from Wow 107 FM Dubai courtesy of Sky Freight Cargo U.A.E. I am not sure when they started the competition but yeah I got lucky so hooray!!! 

Anyway, I joined the competition when I accompanied my husband to Ajman. While we're listening to the radio (WOW 107), the lady presenter asked a question and if your are the lucky one you'll get a chance to win a Free Delivery Balikabayan box to the Philippines by Sky Freight. The question was "Bakit ka nagpapadala ng balikbayan box sa Pilipinas?", then you have to send it to 6467 by this format <WOW_NAME_YOURANSWER>. Since we are really planning to send cargo before we go for a vacation on November, I texted my answer right away which was "Nagpapadala ako ng balikbayan box para sa aking pamilya lalo na ngayon at kasama nila ang aming anak". But then, I am not so lucky. I guess it is not yet the time for me to win. When we got home I actually forget about it.

The next day in the office, the radio station that I always listening too suddenly lost a signal or (I don't know what to call it)so I look for another station and found WOW 107 FM. Yes, the competition from yesterday was still on-going.The question was the same though the radio presenter was different. I decided to try once again, texted my answer just like yesterday, and continue what I am doing that time, and for the second time I didn't get lucky. SAD!

But it didn't end there. On the next morning, with the same radio presenter I joined AGAIN! That time he has a different question, same price, same mechanics. It was "Ilang beses ka magpadala ng balikbayan box sa Pilipinas?" My answer was, "Once a year". Then after 10 or 15 minutes, my phone rang and I just stare at it for at least 5-10 seconds thinking who might be calling me. When I answered it, the guy on the other line said that he's Raz (actually I thought it's Rob hahaha! Just found out it was Raz when I checked their website hihihi) from WOW 107. OH BOY!! I just won a free balikbayan box! Then he told me that he will put me on hold and will speak to me after the song. So yeah, when we're ON-Air he asked me the question and blah-blah-blah. He said that someone will call me from their office on how I will claim my prize. When a lady called me she asked my complete name and gave the Sky Freight's phone number in case I haven't receive a call from them in 2-3 days. 

By the way, I upgraded my balikbayan box from Regular (53x51x51 cm) to Jumbo (53x51x76 cm). Since I only have the free delivery of a regular box worth Dhs129.00 to Luzon, I have to add Dhs70.00 for the jumbo box that is worth Dhs199.00. Below is the picture of the voucher and the box.

I am thankful that I won a free delivery box to the Philippines by just texting. Though I didn't got it on my first and second try, at least I got lucky on the third. Lesson learned, don't give up easily on the things that you really want and as they say "Try and try until you Succeed".

Thank you for your time!
