Early X'mas shopping in Japan





It is still early for Christmas but the shops have started selling goods at discount rate. I was at the above shopping center and was quite surprise to have found a Daiso discount shop selling most items at 100 Yen which is equivalent to S$1.20.
I got a pair of shoes at 1,990 Yen ($24) from a shop selling sports items. The original price was 4,990 Yen (a discount of almost 3,000 Yen or $36).
Shopping in Japan is fun because the malls are huge and not as crowded with people as in Singapore. Besides, there are ample car parking lots and are free of charge.

Spending time in shopping mall





It has been very hot with the temperature topping the 38c mark. We decided to take "shelter" at a shopping mall. It's more comfortable and besides our car has a sheltered car parking lot. Unlike in SG,we do not have to pay for parking and so we could just take our time and window shop.
The toy poodle cost a lot more than in SG. My wife wanted to buy the above toy poodle but it's too dear. She is a cute 2 month old puppy and cost S$4,000. It's out of our budget and besides, we still feel the pain of losing our toy poodle in SG about 2 1/2 years ago. Therefore, we decided not to own another pet.
The mall is a nice place to while away our time. The only problem is there are many irresistible restaurants selling not only Japanese food but KFC and Mister Donut. I managed to resist eating these food as I have just lost 4 kg and do not want to put back the 4 kg that I've lost in the last 2 weeks.
