MANILA – Summer may be winding down, but there’s still time to squeeze in a few more moments of fun with your barkada. Whether you’re finally booking that long- overdue barkada staycation, finally pushing through with your workout plans, or organizing a potluck at home, the key to making the most of summer is spending smart.
One way to do that is by using GCash to unlock exclusive deals and perks, so you can still check off your summer bucket list while getting the most out of every purchase! Just in case you need that extra nudge to finally make those plans happen, here are a few ideas on how you can spend smarter and bring the whole barkada together for the last few weeks of summer.
Host one last barkada feast before everyone gets busy again – What truly makes summer memorable isn’t who you’re spending it with – and one of the best ways to enjoy the company of your favorite people is when you share a meal! So why not organize one final food trip, merienda run, or potluck before summer ends?
- Jamba Juice is offering a summer exclusive worth sharing – just buy 2 12oz smoothies for only PHP 245 and pay with GCash. This saves you PHP 145 on selected flavors. For pizza lovers, Angel’s Pizza is giving one way free Saba Con Yelo for every minimum single-receipt purchase of PHP 800 for dine-in and takeout orders. And if your group loves trying out new spots, Tien Ma’s is offering a free dessert with a minimum spend of PHP 500 – because no shared meal is complete without something sweet at the end.
Refresh your summer essentials while sales are still on
Before the season wraps up, now is the perfect time to stock up on the essentials you’re still missing. Whether that’s a new pair of sandals, travel organizers, or last-minute beauty finds, you may want to check out your cart while sales are still on. Here’s why: when you check out your Lazada carts on May 4-7 and June 5-8, you instantly get PHP 100 off when you pay with GCash – just make sure you reach a minimum spend of PHP 2,500.
On TikTok Shop, you can also enjoy an additional PHP 50 off on purchases worth at least PHP 1,500 when selecting GCash as your payment method from May 18-24.
- Turn your fitness plans into a barkada activity
Summer is also prime time for movement. If you’ve been trying to lure your friends out for more active weekends – like running together or trying a new studio class – maybe a few deals along the way could help make your invitation more enticing.
You and your friends can upgrade your activewear at Nike and get 10% off for a minimum purchase of PHP 12,000 when you use GCash to pay in-store. For everyday active basics, Bench is offering PHP 150 off with a minimum spend of PHP 2,000.

Purchases worth Php20,000 at The Loop with the same GCash minimum spend also unlock free Belkin earphones.
- Plan a quick city escape
Not every barkada summer hangout needs a plane ticket abroad. Sometimes, all you need is a staycation in the city to make it feel like an escape.
If you love checking for hotels out on Klook, you can score 10% off on hotel bookings with a minimum spend of PHP 8,000 when you pay with GCash. Meanwhile, new users on Trip.com can also get up to PHP 400 off on eligible outlet bookings for a minimum spend of PHP 5,000 when using GCash.These savings make barkada plans a whole lot easier to lock in, because everybody is guaranteed to save more!
