Hi to all Filipinos out there.

I just want to ask something about carrying Electronic gadgets with me.
It's my first time to go for a vacation and I plan to buy 2 ipads one for my mother and for my sister as a gift and hand carry it.
I will bring my laptop with me and the 2 ipads.
I just want to know your opinions and experience about this if you encounter to ask to pay tax for carrying this items.

Walang tax ang mga gadgets. Kung mabubulsa mo nga lang ang 50" LCD eh

Sorry, just now I saw your answer there, I appreciate.

I just want to save money for that, and instead to pay for that tax ( that maybe will just put in their pockets )I can still buy some stuffs and sweets for my family..

We already pay for that and again pay another ( We are not rich OFW here. ) =(
