    Dont know about being a member but i know duty free shops in phill are basically huge hypermarkets, foods, clothes and elctrical goods. Booze and fags are just small sections in comprasion.

    When we land in Manila we go up the road to the duty free place (others will know where it is exactly) and mostly buy choclate by huge bags (you normally get some naff free gifts like a water dispenser or a scooter if you buy so much. Also tins of corned beef, coffe and other bits and bobs. You need to show your passport and plane ticket to enter but can bring as many guests as you like.

    Thinking of doing the smart thing, Jet and me, did visit the one at the Waterfront Hotel in Cebu City.
    Nothing really to write home about.
    Loads of bagged chocs, naff giveaways.
    We mainly shopped for the kids and to get a few bottles of decent bubbly for our wedding reception.

    Some things looked rather interesting, no doubt we will go there again, for white appliances and aircon units for our future house . They are a lot cheaper there.
