In general, most Hongkongers love two things: cheap steals and Japanese stuff. Beloved Japanese lifestyle store 3Coins has fulfilled both these categories by opening its first Hong Kong flagship store in the heart of our shopping district, Causeway Bay.
3Coins is well known for selling the majority of their lifestyle and household goods at just JPY330, which is under HKD $18, with products that are more well-made and stylish than dollar stores like Daiso. They offer over 2,500 Japan-designed products ranging from kitchenware and home organising goods, to beauty accessories and pet items.
The Yaichi group-operated store here in Hong Kong will also stock seven items exclusive to our city, such as reusable and tote bags (from $18), umbrella bags ($30), a hand-carry travel bag ($90) that can hold up to eight kg of belongings, and more. 3Coins’ products in the Hong Kong store will be priced the same as their home locations in Japan, with taxes included, so no more being annoyed that things are cheaper in Japan! It’s worth noting, though, that 3Coins’ prices will fluctuate with the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the Hong Kong dollar.
Some cute and handy items to look out for include a 3D jelly mould ($30) to make cute wobbly animals, a hairbrush ($30) with a removable layer under the bristles that makes hair much easier to remove, and an ice bag ($72) that can be worn around the neck during hot summers. Pet owners will be glad to know 3Coins also stocks plenty of adorable items for furry friends, including costumes like takoyaki balls or even yukata for animals.
As a launch promotion, customers who spend $300 between now and August 3 will also receive a Hong Kong-exclusive 3Coins reusable shopping bag, limited to 200 pieces each day. Check out 3Coins for yourself at B2/F, Hysan Place, Causeway Bay.
