What's a good souvenir or pasalubong?


Hey guys I'm going back to the US in a few days, What do you think is a good souvenir or pasalubong from the Philippines to give away for my co-workers, 5 female . My budget is about $20 or about P800 per person. Thanks!

house decorations (such as those Capiz shells-made, wood carvings, pots, metal recycled-made materials, paintings, and others)....

food if they like any... such as ube, Filipino canned-foods, cornicks, peanut brittle, Filipino junk foods, dried mangoes, and others that can go in your baggage or box...

clothings... such as t-shirts that promote Philippine tourism, or t-shirts that are based in Filipino culture, such as those spoofs one, or that ridicule or make fun of something, mostly Filipino jokes... you can also but them bonets that are made from Baguio City, or caps, or other clothing materials...

entertainment... you can buy them local or foreign Cd's or DVDs much cheaper there, not the pirated ones though... you may also want to but them magazines or books, or other reading materials that can be bought there cheaper...

if they are pinoy too
get that what they missed a lot in the Philippines. Food/ maybe handicraft. Think of what province they came from, thats the key
if not pinoy,
any thing Pinoy made will do

Wood carvings, if bulk wouldn't be a problem (not the barrel man, though).

Some of my friends loved the snacks from Goldilocks. Those sweet candy or whatever it is. Or keychains that say Philippines I guess.. Haha..

A gift made from seashells, broom, A calander, Windchimes.

A six pack of Red Horse

i'd say food... chicharon and stuff

How about some T-shirts with logo of The Philippines,wood figurines like carabao,necklaces is made of shells,fans or abaca bags

bring them Pinoy food..some shirts, necklaces..whatever that is made in the philippines..

Dried Mangoes. Visit the SM malls and go to the Filipiniana Section where you can get tonz of Pinoy pasalubong for your friends. They have great Capiz Jewelries there too. Enjoy shopping and have a safe trip back to the US!! :)

the pinoys just ask for boy bawang or bagoong

Go to Quiapo underpass - lots of souveneir items to choose from - household stuffs -table cloth,etc. Or you can go to Balikbayan in Diosdado Macapagal - nice key chain, nice t-shirts, native bags, door chimes, capiz shell trays or jewelry boxes, etc.
