Christmas popcorn tin

does anyone know where I could possibly buy the tri-flavored popcorn tins I used to get as a kid? I know walmart has them available even still but only around christmas time. Seeing as I can't just stop in at walmart, would anyone know where I might find them. I don't even know where to look online.

    For online, maybe Amazon has it. I usually order overseas products there. For stores, costco, yamaya, kaldi, or jupiter.

    I had a quick look on the Costco website but it doesn't look like the Japan stores sell them - that was my initial thought. Amazon US does have it but naturally the shipping costs here are exorbitant, so I wouldn't personally go down that route unless it's an absolute must-have.

    I just saw a popcorn place in a mall that smelled amazing. Super expensive but more fresh than Walmart? It's called ギャレットポップコーンショップス - Garrett Popcorn. The closest one to you might be in Kitasenju, but they have an online store too: https://garrettjapan.official.ec/

What do you MOST associate with Ibaraki?

Just for fun - what is the very first thing that comes to mind when I say Ibaraki prefecture? Today, is Ibaraki prefecture day and when I was choosing what photo to use for the feature photo, one place came to mind instantly. I don't want to influence your answer so I won't mention it here, but you can check it out in the article: https://ww2.city-cost.com/blogs/BigfamJapan/GReVv-living_ibaraki_ushiku_shi_ibaraki

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!

How often do you use chopsticks?

I have just written about "Chopstick Day". The second "Chopstick day" of the year! I am curious; how often do you use chopsticks? For every meal? Once a day? With certain meals only? Occasionally? Never!?

Fears in Japan that you didn't have in your home country?

I've written a number of blogs here on City-Cost about how bears are a real worry in my area these days, and it's something that I didn't have to concern myself with in my home country. I know people talk about snakes and spiders in Australia being deadly (and yes, there are some types that are), but they're not typically going to come and attack you unprovoked. Also, it's a lot easier to outrun a snake or a spider than a bear ;) I'm curious about the rest of you, if you have fears here that maybe weren't present in your country of origin. Let me know in the comments!
