Japanese Homeware Giant Lands in PJ

Hooray! Great news for fans of Japanese livingware who live in West Malaysia: Daiso, the 100 yen store chain, is opening a branch in - The Curve (on Level 2, next to Nichii) pretty soon. This will be their second outlet in Malaysia, after their successful first opening in KK.







Daiso, originated from Japan, is a unique combination of dollar and convenient store, carrying over 100,000 types of high-quality stylish household and lifestyle products at unbeatable prices. There are three Daiso stores in Singapore, where everything is going for $2. In Bangkok, Daiso stores are ubiquitous, popping up on corners and in malls, and even within department stores, where everything sells at 60Baht.



Now in Malaysia, all goods are going at a uniform price of RM5, hence the tagline 'Always RM5".



Before I heard this piece of news, I was planning to pop into Daiso during my upcoming Bangkok trip, to 'sapu' some cutie pastry cutters, silicon moulds, food picks etc. Now that with the opening of Daiso in PJ, I won't mind waiting a little longer, since the price, when converted, will be cheaper in Malaysia as opposed to 60Baht.



I'm so excited, can't wait!
