DAISO - the $2 store!

I guess most of you would have know DAISO by now eh?

It wasn't so well-known in the past where there is only one branch at IMM, Jurong East. Now that they have several branches - Plaza Singapura, Vivocitiy.. most people would have known about it.

I personally prefer IMM and Vivocity's DAISO. They stuff are more wide range and so much well-organized than the one in Plaza Singapura!

But well, the fact that I love shopping in DAISO because there's really a wide variety of stuff you can find as well as it is SUPER inexpensive! Only $2! Most stuff are Made In Japan/Korea too!

I love to buy the stationery stuff, cushion, bowls, snacks, files (it used to be my fav when I was schooling, tsk!), etc etc etc. I don't dare to try to cosmetics though! Geez.

What about you? Do you love shopping in DAISO and what are the essentials that you will buy?

Hey, actually Daiso's stuff arent considered cheap.
I bought some stuffs over there, and realised Giant has them too!
What's worse, Giant was selling it at only $1.50

Haha, most DAISO's stuff are really at a reasonable price of only S$2.
It got to depend on what you buy though.
For ie, getting a drink at S$2 is definitely not worth it.

Have been supporting DAISO since the first branch at IMM, Jurong East!

i buy the make up kit
.. lolx


i see other shop sell $8

i wan cry le..
but i that time shop until plazza
then saw daiso..then kpo go in..then saw it sell $2

hahaha! my mummy loves daiso.
she goes there to buy her gardening stuff
i buy their stationeries and food! muahaha...
my fav. is their ziplock bag for flip phones.
well, it's really useful for me cos my mum's a germ-freak. [ie. i cannot touch anything @ home before showering]
and i cant bring the "dirty" stuff around the house.. like.. my mp3/hp unless i WASH em! hahah
so with these hp ziplocks, i can use my phone @ home..
n it's very good for swimming and going into the steam-room
muahaha! dont have to worry about not being contactable or spoiling ur hp. =D
confession: sometimes i message in the shower! hoho...

no no... i mean i went to c the website on e.l.f. and saw some stuff tt i like but not sure how to go abt ordering it...

can anione guide me?

tyty!!

Hi Voghky,

U mentioned abt most stuffs in Daiso are made in Japan/Korea...However, from wat I know...There are even far MORE items which are made in CHINA!

Having said so, I usually went to Daiso to buy their plastic containers 'cos theirs are for sure MADE IN JAPAN (usually stated somewhere in the containers). Also, most of their plastic tubberware are cheaper than what sold outside & are comparable to those sold in Muji.

Besides, I also go for their ankle socks...quite cheap la for the price of S$2/pair.

Out of all the branches, I still prefer the 1 @ IMM...lesser crowds & spacious+more organised.

Daiso sells super cute crayon shin's biscuits. LOL.

Ok, then this is offtopic here.

When Daiso first opened, the stuffs that they sold are really mainly from Japan.

But well, there are still many stuff worth buying lah!

Now I have the urge to go there again, lol!
