    Tunji, I saw a nice one at Handyman Hardware that also had a barometer and a relative humidity. Didn't notice the price.
    Sorry, but I work on a "need to know" basis. I don't wear a watch because I don't care what time it is. It is only daytime or night time to me. I don't have a thermometer because the temp is what it is. The only thing I carry is my iPhone and that tells me much more than I need to know.
    Try a large Handyman.

    I too had much trouble getting thermometers. Dozens of store clerks referred me to baby departments; apparently their only experiences with thermometers was for assessing babys' health! :smile: Remembering outdoor municipal thermometer sightings in Cebu, I was optimistic about shopping in that metropolis; but I failed to find any.

    So it seems that there is only the one store where I finally found outdoor thermometer, and it is not in Cebu but in Dumaguete.

    Look in Matiao Trading at the junction of two walls near the information desk which is near the cashiers. P35 if I remember correctly.

    Lucky for me i had my neighbors cousin coming from hawaii to dumaguete airport then off to cebu island near sumilon just off dumaguete shores...He brought me 2 cheap thermometers from Wal-mart in hawaii and wouldn't take my money in repay and then he handed me free hawaiian made chocolate macadamia nut....I guess i get a chance to help him in the future?
