What do you usually put in a Balikbayan Box?

setzamorasetzamora Posts: 2Member
I'm planning to send one this month. I'm wondering if there's a list of common / recurring Balikbayan Box goods that has become a "standard"?

In other words, what do you usually send to your loved ones in the Philippines that puts a smile on their faces every single time?

    Following this thread... am planning on sending a balikbayan box by october as well and we're starting to collect the contents :)

    For now we have been buying chocolates whenever theres a half price from woolies/coles. Cadbury, timtams mostly..

    And Cotton On is currently having a $1-$5 sale so we also got some stuff.

    Curious to know what other products people usually send home :)
