Over 2000 items are going at this affordable price, such as cleaning supplies, food and snacks, stationery, kitchen utensils, socks, towels, toiletries and even toilet paper. Time to stock up on their colourful pens ? Interestingly, the store also has a water refill station where you can bring your empty water bottles to fill up for free! A truly sustainable option ?
You can't miss the store - it's conveniently located inside the JR ticketing gates at Mitaka Station in the Atré Vie Mitaka shopping centre. If you want to explore the area nearby, why not pop by Ghibli Museum and surround yourself with all sorts of characters from Hayao Miyazaki’s works of art in this beautiful, whimsically designed museum? ? It's only a 15-min walk away from the station!
