On my previous year my Christmas gift wasn't full-filled. I already moved on to that scenario. Christmas Party comes once again. I make it more easier to search for. This 2011 I requested that my gift would be New Philippine Peso Bill worth 500.00 It came true my gift was grant. And the bill is flawless never been in the hand of others. No scratch, no bends or fold on it. I will kept this gift as in.

I've been collecting the new bills as well and my collection is almost finished. The only issue I have with the new bills is that most people also collects it so its hard to get hold of any of those nowadays.

I don't have the high denomination (P1000 and P500) yet in my possession. I don't spend these new bills because I just like to see them in my wallet. I don't have a Christmas wish list this year because I will be spending Christmas just with my hubby and it will be just the two of us. I also don't have any parties to attend to since my siblings live abroad. I do hope to get a hold of the new bills before the end of the year though.

hi syoti20!
glad that christmas came early for you.
not really a big fan of the new philippine peso bills. i'm happy with the older bills. that's just me though. anyway, the new bills look like play money in my opinion so i'll most probably deal with these when the old ones are out of circulation already. lol!
anyway, my mom collects bills as well. she collects bills from other countries but her most extensive collection is that of philippine peso bills. she collects old bills mostly but had her hand on the complete set of the new peso bills. honestly, i'm not that impressed with the new set of bills. her 'prized' possession is a Php2,000 bill featuring the former president joseph estrada. that bill was never circulated so it is a collector's item. i got one as well but i let her keep mine since she's the knowledgeable one about keeping these bills in mint condition.
again, good for you that you got the gift that you wanted for this christmas. i haven't really thought about what i want for myself... nothing really pops to mind. anyway, i still have a week or so to think about it.
cheers syoti!

What I only have right now are the 20s, 100s and 200s. Good that you are collecting them because they will also serve as your savings. The only downside that I can think is that you'll have a hard time parting from them once you need the extra cash. Have duplicates. I am planning to have my new bills in a frame once I complete them and have them displayed :)
