Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina have never been to Iloilo . Tita Edna suggested using her Philippine Airlines mileage to deduct 9,000 miles for a round trip to Iloilo and pay taxes of about 3,000 pesos ($50.85). Mom Violy and Carmina decided to do the same. Two weeks later, we learned Bacolod was recently hit by a typhoon, leaving fewer places to visit, so we changed our plans to stay in Iloilo, paying an additional 2,057 pesos ($34.86) for January 6–9, with Tita Edna leaving one day earlier on January 8, 2026.  Tita Edna told us that she has a friend Beth who can pick us up from the airport. Uniparentally plans had changed since her friend Beth and son could no longer tour us around, we decided to find ways to get around hire someone else. Jerson had picked us from One Madison Place where we had stayed during our vacation with the hours Mom Violy had requested.

Self Service or With Assistance at New York Laundry

 


Not many of us have a big washing machine to wash our comforters. 

Carmina decided to bring it to a laundry place and found New York Laundry.

Entering inside wearing a face mask Carmina approaches the employee on duty asking whether she can leave her comforter to be washed with assistance. I was told there is an additional charge of PHP 100.00 ($1.72) to have it done.

The employee from New York Laundry asked if I had any detergent with me and said yes. Letting them know I didn't want any softener because I am allergic to it.

They will look at the size of the laundry to see which washing machine it will fit with different price range. Since my comforter was a king size it had it inside a bigger washing machine for PHP 220.00 ($3.79) and the dryer will cost additional PHP 168.00 ($2.90).


Carmina was told it will be ready at 3:00 PM. 

Upon picking it up is when you'll be asked to make a payment in cash best to pay full amount because they don't have change for large bills.

NOTE:

Carmina is not selling or advertising for New York Laundry just something I need to have washed.
