Cecil is so excited to see her picture posted here(See 'COKE HAPPY PLATE) and she gave me these Coke pork & spoon set and a Coke Time Magazine article.
Both James (from Canada) and Rico (from the US) brought me these cute ROUND Cokes as their Christmas gift for me when they came here for a visit this Christmas. Thanks guys!
I asked this group of youngsters if I can pay for their coke "upgrades"(P12 each), in exchange for their receipts. I filled up my happy stamp card with 7 required "upgrades"and got my very 1st Jollibee Happy Bottle!

Meet Jorge. He gladly gave me his Happy Plate Poster in their store..!
Neighbors know I collect Coke Items. Rikki and Michelle gave their santa caps to contribute in my quest to collect 35 caps for the complete set of 5 COKE Happy Plates...
I saw this regine Velaquez Coke poster in an old market in Bacolod. The owner is willing to give me this poster but is nailed on the wall and may be totally destroyed if I insist of getting it... So I let it go with a heavy heart.
I did not expect that the ‘RAISE THE ROOF' Blog Entree will have a second part.
Last Wednesday (10/28/09), as I passed by Mercado Subdivision along Tagaytay-Balibago Highway in Sta Rosa Laguna, I was shocked to see the building with the red roof is now tinted with blue color! The big Coca cola that was beautifully painted on the red roof is now gone.
The up side of this story is I was able to record it before they change the color. If I postponed my picture-taking for couple of weeks more, I would have missed it forever. Truly, the Quick beats the Diligent.
