I’m planning to buy the 2 Pwede Na! books authored by Mr. Efren Ll. Cruz but they were already out-of-stock, or are no longer in circulation, in all National Bookstore branches that I visited. Any suugestion or idea where I could still buy them? And by the way, what’s the price for each book? Thanks!
Good day Jordan probably the best way is to contact them in their contact link http://www.personalfinance.ph/page2.html. Check out their upcoming Encash events they might probably have some books on sale. If you have a friend attending their event ask if they can buy you one when it is available during the seminar.
Thanks Louis! Actually before your reply, I stumbled upon their website. I submitted the same query. According to Mr. Efren Ll. Cruz himself, not only the 2 Pwede Na books out-of-stock, they are also out-of-print! Also, he said that revisions are added on the 2 books and they will release them soon. He advised me to visit their website from time to time for the update on when the revised copies will be released. Good day and more power to you and your great website!
that is good Jordan
