Ni Hyaku Yen Shop


I'm sure you've heard of the famous 100 Yen (Hyaku Yen) shops in Japan right? Well we went to the mall and saw another version: a 200 Yen shop~

Japan Home Centre might be expensive (doubled price) in comparison to the Hyaku Yen shops in Japan, but it's actually cheaper than the other shops here.

I dropped off my mom inside and she bought things like crazy, and crazier when she found the 150 Yen aisle. She picked up a new leash for our dog Brownie(awesome name huh), packs of tissue rolls, dozens of nail filers, non-stick pan, batteries, and a whole lot more of common household stuff. I'm proud to say that she didn't bought things randomly, and that the purchases were really thought out and the quantity adequate.

Not sure if I'd be able to do the same once placed inside a real 100 Yen shop. I'm quite a fan of trinkets and nonsense stuff, so I would really need a lot of restraint and a couple of external forces (Rose and Kai) to be able to pull myself away from going on a spending-splurge.

I'll leave myself in the care of these two~
