      Yeah, true, lets hope they include the price list also. Do they even wrap the books with stickers and name tags these days? I remember doing it when I was in school....

                  I have just received the booklist and orientation program today…Went to Popular online store wanting to compare the price…can’t find the books for the English subject…seems like prices stated in website slightly lower than in booklist…but on the safe side will have to check if other titles available. Based on the list, guess spending will range between $230-250 if getting all in the list…

                      I understand that Popular offering a 5% off textbooks though not sure if it covers all the textbooks...anyway I'll be making a trip to Popular to check it out since I've the booklist... The books sold at Beacon is handle by Pacific bookstore

                        I still have not got the booklist, checked my letterbox yesterday. Did you also get the class your son will be in? Do let us know which is cheaper? School or Popular. When will you be going to get the uniform and books?
