Daiso Opens in Chatswood!

I was lucky enough to check out the new Chatswood Daiso store today for its pre-opening. the Store opened its doors from 12pm-2pm offering shoppers the chance to win a $1000 voucher and a goodie bag with each purchase.

I absolutely loved 100yen shops when i was in Japan, they sold everything! and all so cheap. I was super excited to check out the Australian store. The Australian version sells everything for $2.80, because of exchange rate shipping, Australian wages/rent and so on.
But still $2.80 is pretty cheap!

The shop itself is nothing special, cheap plastic racks and fittings, narrow aisles, but it is huge and stocks just as much stuff as the 100yen shops in Japan. I was disappointed about one thing though, no food! I was looking forward to getting some cheap yummy Japanese lollies or chips. I'm not sure if this was because they hadn't put this stock out yet, as some of the shelves were empty, or their just not planning on selling the food here.

Daiso Chatswood

As some of you may know Daiso is a Japanese 100yen shop (or as it will be in Aus $2.80 shop).
They sell a whole bunch of products from food, stationary to cosmetics.

I am so excited for the opening of their Chatswood store later this month! It should open in the mandarin centre  on the ground floor. It looks a pretty decent size ( not as large as some of the store in Japan) and hopefully carries a good range of products. They already have two stores in Melbourne but i haven't heard much about them yet.

The Daiso brand lashes which come individually with glue, are some of the best quality lashes you can get. Granted their not natural fibres like Dolly Wink, but they are super easy to apply and i actually prefer the Daiso glue to the dolly wink glue.

I have just had so many problems with the dolly wink glue coming off after a few hours, where the Daiso glue stays on all day and all night! They both dry clear but the Daiso one dries a lot faster, which means less chance of the corners coming unstuck.
