Hihyo~

As I got to go to Japan again in December, I used that opportunity to do a bit more shopping.
Yes, I've just been to Japan in November and was shopping like crazy, but ... as I was only staying in Japan for a few days this December, I had a lot of space in my luggage and I just couldn't let this chance slip!

Unfortunately, I only had a very short time for shopping, like only a few hours, but that was still enough to get all of the stuff below. (^___^;;) .....


Considering that I'd only have like 1-2 hours for shopping in the evening, I decided to go to Ikebukuro.
I needed to go to Tokyu Hands anyway and I already saw last time that they didn't have what I wanted in the smaller stores. The one in Ikebukuro is much bigger.


( Mandarake - Tokyu Hands - Book Off - Donki )



Last but not least I went to Donki to grab a few snacks for my co-workers and some for my family and friends (although I think they're already sick of it *g*).
I had to give up the tax free counter as the line was way too long and I was worried that I would miss my last train. ^^;

Other random stuff I bought were those cute cat items.
The postcards I found near the Tsukiji fish market. The artist also includes famous regions e.g. Kotohira (Shikoku) or Yamaguchi (blow fish).
There were others as well, but I decided to go with these.

The clear files I got at a little store in a side street near Sensoji Temple in Asakusa. :)

I really spend too much money on stuff during those past 2 trips but as I never know when I get to go to Japan again, can you really blame me? ;)
I'm just glad I got another chance to do a little bit of shopping. I'm really thankful for that.

At least I'm almost done with Christmas present shopping now.
How about you?


Bye~chuu!~
