I've been into these shops a couple of times when traveling in Japan, and while I mostly didn't end up buying much, they're definitely a lot of fun to browse.

I like Muji, I like Daiso (branded as Living Plaza here, and which I always describe to people as "what if Muji did a pound shop?") and I'm looking forward to the first Don Quijote store opening in Hong Kong later this year!
- eru 7y agoI find it somewhat amusing that it's mostly thanks to low inflation that Daiso can keep the 200 yen / 2 SGD price point for so long.
- CaptainZapp 7y agoMuji has fantastic socks. In their European branches, that is. Possibly they are also great in their Japanese shops. With a shoe size of 11 1/2, however, you don't really get a chance to test that, since you won't find anything for your feet in that size. Even sneakers are problematic.
