Give yourself the gift of more! Home Credit shares five reasons to reward yourself this Holiday season

Tweet

The Christmas season is here! For Filipinos, it's not just another holiday—it's the most anticipated time of the year. The start of the “-ber” months marks the beginning of festive lights, holiday music, and an unshakeable excitement in the air. It's a season of giving, love, and celebration; and a time to show appreciation to the people who mean the most to us: our family, friends, and loved ones.

But this year, let’s not forget someone who deserves a little extra love too—YOU.

As the country’s leading consumer finance company, Home Credit Philippines believes in the importance of rewarding yourself during this special time of year.

Here are five reasons why you should prioritize yourself too this holiday season:

You've worked hard all year. Let's face it, the daily grind can sometimes take a toll. From enduring long hours, navigating work challenges, to managing household responsibilities, you've given it your all. The holiday season is the perfect time to pause and recognize your hard work. It's not just about giving to others but also rewarding yourself for the countless challenges you've overcome this year.

It’s the season for joy, and you deserve some of it too. The holidays are meant to bring happiness, and while it’s wonderful to see your loved ones smile, your joy matters just as much. Whether it's that gadget you've had your eye on or a much-needed home upgrade, now is the time to treat yourself to something that will bring lasting happiness.

You’ve earned a break from the “pwede na” mindset. Throughout the year, it’s easy to settle for “good enough”—whether it's delaying a purchase or opting for more affordable but less satisfying options. But Christmas isn’t the time for compromise. This season, go beyond “pwede na” and indulge in what you truly want. You’ve earned it!

It’s an investment for a better year ahead. Rewarding yourself doesn’t just bring immediate satisfaction; it sets the tone for the year to come. By investing in something that enhances your life—whether it's a new appliance, a fitness gadget, or something to elevate your home—you’re setting yourself up for a more productive and enjoyable new year.

Because Christmas comes but once a year! The magic of Christmas doesn’t come around every day, so why not make the most of it? Filipinos go all out during the holiday season because we know how special it is. Let this be the year you get everything you need to create memories, enjoy comfort, and live life to the fullest.

For Home Credit, the holiday season is the best time to give yourself the gift of more—because you deserve it! That is why with its commitment to empowering Filipinos achieve a more rewarding life, the country’s leading finance company is about to make your holiday shopping experience easier and more exciting with its upcoming 0% Installment Festival.

Stay tuned for special 0% interest installment deals that will make this year’s Christmas more TODO than ever. Because with Home Credit, getting the best gifts for yourself and your loved ones is just around the corner!

Bring in the holiday cheer with a wide selection of Christmas décor for every design inspiration

As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisper, you know the season of joy and splendor has begun. There’s no better time to spruce up your home than now to avoid the Christmas rush.

This year, Robinsons Department Store (RDS) is pulling out all the stops to make your Christmas shopping magical and stress-free with the opening of its Celebrate Christmas Shop—in stores and online.

Robinsons Department Store is letting shoppers choose how they want to shop for their holiday décor with different Christmas themes. Browse the e-catalog and add to your cart if you’re pressed for time to go to the mall but want to start with your home decoration right now, or visit the Christmas Shop for additional inspiration as the department stores are decorated for the holidays.

Here’s a guide on how to achieve a cohesive theme for your home this holiday season.

Choosing a Christmas Tree

The first step in choosing a Christmas tree is determining the size that will best fit your space. Where will you put the tree? In the living room, dining room, or foyer? Measure the height and width of the area and ensure that there’s enough clearance for the tree—and the tree topper—to stand upright without touching the ceiling.

Robinsons Department Store’s Christmas Shop offers a variety of trees in different colors (white, silver, and green), materials (tinsel, vinyl balsam, and royal Dakota), and shapes (slim and full). Price and size also come in a wide range to suit your space and budget.

Classic Christmas

Nothing says enchanting Christmas more than the timeless colors of red and green. For those who cherish the holiday traditions they grew up with, the Christmas Shop offers delightful décor in these classic colors. Think red and green Christmas balls, Nutcracker soldiers, twinkling fairy lights, poinsettias, green and red leaves on slim branches, wreaths, tabletop trees, garlands, and other ornaments like plush toys. Classic Christmas embodies the warmth of nostalgia and holiday traditions.

Splendor Christmas

On the other end of the color spectrum are the rich, jewel colors that bring a touch of luxury to your home. The ornaments sparkle and shine in deep blue, maroon, fuchsia, gold, and even black and translucent — and are mostly embellished with silver or gold trims. Gold fillers and ribbons are strategically wound throughout the tree for that extra touch of luxury. Gold wreaths, stylized nativity figurines, reindeer, and brush-like tabletop trees complete the look.

Christmas with Santa

One of the most beloved symbols of Christmas is Santa Claus. With his never-ending supply of gifts from his sack and his jolly laughter, Father Christmas has caught the hearts of generations of children and adults. What better way to celebrate the happy spirit of the season than with a Santa theme? Mini Santa, Rudolph, and the Snow Man can decorate your tree for that festive spirit, while tabletop Santa on his sleigh, and Christmas socks and throw pillows create a cheerful atmosphere all around your space.

Christmas tablescape

Entertaining is a huge part of the holidays and you can flex your cooking as well as your decorating skills in one go. Create a truly unforgettable holiday dining experience with dinnerware and cutlery from the Christmas Shop. They range from minimalist white plates with just a hint of holiday print to colorful ones. Your table can be as opulent or as simple as you want. Pick a couple of tree ornaments or slim tabletop trees to scatter around the table. You can also create an intimate ambiance with Christmas lights bunched up in glass containers or just winding around on the table like a garland.

Robinsons Department Store’s Christmas Shop is your one-stop shop for all your Christmas decorating essentials. Browse the e-catalog here and add it to your cart on GoCart, LazMall, and Shopee Mall. Or visit any Robinsons Department Store near you for more holiday inspiration.
