The "Alyas Pogi Birthday Giveaway" staged during the entire month of September to celebrate the 56th birth anniversary of Senator Ramon Bong Revilla Jr. was a phenomenal success and was enjoyed by many Filipinos, especially those who won prizes.
After the games, netizens stormed the social media accounts of the long-time lawmaker and celebrity and requested the repeat of the program dubbed "Relax ka lang, Grocery mo sagot ko."
Participants were randomly selected to join the grocery shopping spree. Sen. Revilla, together with Congresswoman Lani Mercado-Revilla and their family, personally hosted the game at Robinsons Main Square in Bacoor City.
Initially, each player was given three minutes to get everything they could. But Revilla generously gave an additional minute to all that allowed them to take groceries worth P30,000 to P100,000 each.
The Revillas also gifted all participants with P5,000 to cover their transportation expenses, since many of them came from far provinces.
The game brought happiness to many people, and they requested another round of fun games that helped many Filipinos.
