Tokyu Hands

The logo of this company.
As Halloween is around the corner, they were pitching pumpkin goods.
Imported army knives.
They were selling unique toys as well.
Some Japanese people like to try many kinds of bath additives. There were cherry, milk, soy milk and other flavors available.


Yesterday I went to Tokyu Hands where lots of useful goods are sold. There are many shops in Japan that sell such merchandises but this Tokyu Hands sells ones that people usually don't see in an ordinary shop. I take advantage of this store in order to buy stationery, as I'm particular about it, and there is really a variety of pens, mechanical pencils, pencil cases and so on.

There is a very big Tokyu Hands outlet at Ikebukuro station, Tokyo, and it is its flagship outlet in Japan. But as this Kashiwa outlet opened in Chiba prefecture a couple of years ago, now it is the store that I frequent the most these days.

And Tokyu Hands also sells some unique goods that are only sold on TV infomercials, so if you spotted on TV some you actually want to see and touch, pay a visit.
