(SPOT.ph) Anyone who travels to Japan likely has a ramen spot in their itinerary. Though nothing beats the freshly prepared stuff of course, boxed instant versions are also available—perfect for packing away in your their luggage to bring home as pasalubong. But in case a trip to Japan isn't booked yet, we know where you can get a box of instant Ippudo Ramen at a discounted price. And when we mean discounted, we mean that it's even cheaper than buying it from Japan directly.

Here's where you can get a discounted box of Ippudo Ramen:

If you're not yet or you don't know anyone who is an S&R Membership Shopping cardholder, now is the best time to apply as a member because they're selling boxes of Ippudo ramen like hotcakes. Instead of its regular price of P1,299, the warehouse supermarket is selling it at P799. It's waaay cheaper than buying it directly from Japan because you're not paying for airfare, and it's still even cheaper than directly buying it from Ippudo's website.

This box of Ippudo ramen is actually a gift set that contains four servings of ramen: Two each of the ramen chain's Akamaru ramen (pork-based broth) and Shiromaru ramen (tonkotsu-based broth). Do the simple math and you're only paying less than P200 for a bowl of Ippudo ramen.

Not that bad, yes? Just remember to check the expiration date to gauge how many more days you have left to consume the ramen in its best and preferred quality. But also remember the general rule of thumb that it's okay to eat food past its expiration date as long as it doesn't smell funky.

According to S&R Membership Shopping's post, this promo is available until August 31 in all S&R Membership Shopping clubs nationwide.
