Dumaguete

AAC Tech

Computers, Apple products from laptops to i-Pods, other gadgets.

Cang's Department Store

Moderate prices with UnionPay, Visa, JCB and MasterCards accepted, this is a good option for a weekly grocery shop on the ground floor since the basement car park is both free and underutilised. There is a food court on the top floor and the Filomena Cafe 2 (of Bethel Guest House fame) accepts cards too. Purified and cooled water is available free of charge from a self-service drinking fountain with glasses. On the first floor above the ground, small Philippines flags at PHP 6 each make good value and lightweight souvenirs if you are flying from nearby Dumaguete airport.

YanYan Baking and Culinary

Primarily supplies bakers with all imaginable and unimaginable ingredients, but also carries an interesting selection of other hard-to-find groceries.

Lighters Galore

A wide selection of lighters and cigarette cases.They have a range of electric lighters from around PHP 250 up to PHP 1800. These are not supposed to be disposable and do not burn a fossil fuel (recharged via a USB port), so arguably they are rather green. Also convenient, completely windproof and unlikely to set hair or beard afire. However, they are generally not a good buy, except perhaps for a cheap one treated as disposable. They often fail after a few months use; the vendor knows this and gives only a two week warranty.
