i remember this store because i live just a few blocks away. i used to go there to buy small gifts for my mom, sometimes for myself. there were a few dozen occassions when i walked with my little sister to this store to buy stationaries because, she was collecting them during those times. although i didn’t study at J. Zamora elementary, i still frequent this little store because it’ s the easiest access to school supplies for me. after school, i sometimes go to this famous Bonacruz store just to see what new toys they were selling. if i see a toy that i like, i get the price & immediately start saving my lunch money to be able to buy the toy. given that i never studied at JZES & Mrs. Bonacruz never got to be my teacher, being inside her store & being able to meet her even if it was just a buyer-seller relationship, i saw that the little old lady minding that store was a good person. although Mrs. Bonacruz sometimes look “masungit” i can tell that she has a good heart. i haven’t seen Mrs. Bonacruz in ages but i hope she is well & no matter what the name of that store is now… the little “Bonacruz Store” will forever be a part of my life

dati pa kc yan kinuha, pero kung pipicturan nyo ulit yan, ngayon as in ngayong year na to, okay na ang apang store but they didnt rent the whole house but the store only, and after one house beside them, theres a new paharmacy shop at yung nagmamanage ngayon dun sa apang store sila rin ang nagmamanage dun sa pharmacy. isipin nyo nlang ngayon kung anong itsura ng apang store( syempre maganda na)!!! (bongga) !!!…………………………..

just to clear things out, bona cruz changed it’s name bcoz it is under new management right now. also,the prices are not higher than before.and it lost it’s glamour bcoz the house is still owned by the bonacruz’s but the store is just being rented,take note, the store only,not the whole house…

Wow! Memories. This was my lola’s store/house where I spent most of my childhood weekends in. Nice to see it getting featured in this site with fond comments from people who grew up there too. I remember the banana-que, isaw and bibinka (only during Christmas) at opposite corners as well as the kalamay store beside.
