Welcome to Tsukasa's Tour in BIQLO!
Let's get cracking from the basement floors.
B3F to B1F are mainly BIG CAMERA's territory, selling home electronics, PCs, groceries, medicine, beauty cosmetics, and home goods are assembled here.
Pharmacy in B1 floor has huge area. It is as big as quite huge drug store in Tokyo.
A lot of customers from Asian countries purchase a lot here, as they put signs in their languages, and also the price is very reasonable compared to other shops.
I found "Super food" Asai and Chia seed♡
They are so popular among young girls as famous models are putting pictures on Instagram!
These diet supplements are so in demand these days, especially ferment supplements are sold in convenience stores too!
I saw a lot of Chinese customers putting heaps of facial packs into their basket!
Most of the products are tax-free and discounted in these floors.
It's better to shop at once in BIQLO with the cheapest prices.
You can get popular items, such as eye drops, mediQtto and hot eye mask too.
Rice cookers are sold under ¥10,000!
Hitachi, Zojirushi, and Tigar are the three most popular Japanese brand.
The basement floors are designed for tourist from overseas.
I saw more customers from China, Korea and Taiwan rather than Japanese local customers.
Many signs in different languages, discounts, tax-free...
That's why BIQLO is packed by customers continiously.
Shopped too much? Don't worry, here is another suits case for you♡haha
1F Women’s&Men’s clothing, hair dryer, hair iron, facial care goods
2F Women’s clothing, Kids&baby
3F Men’s clothing
First to Third floors are mainly UNIQLO clothing floors.
There are Japanese Yukata (Traditional Japanese wear), collaborated items, underwear, as well as usual clothing.
Inside of the building is full of people on the weekends. And there are stuffs who can manage 4 different languages (English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese) all the time.
4F TV, video camera, recorder, ipod, music audio, headphone, earphone, car navigator, CD/DVD/Blueray, alcohol
A lot of products are discounted for people from overseas.
Of course, they are tax-free too!
It was unbelievable that I am in Japanese store.
Most of the signs are written in Chinese, Korean and English.
BIQLO is a considering shopping store for customers from overseas♡
Of course, I can confidently say that the amount, variety and quality of products BIQLO has are prominent on every count.
GU is also popular as UNIQLO in Japan, especially college students, office workers, and young mothers loves GU because of their special prices!
GU has fashion-forward items and most importantly, they don't look cheap at all!
Their items are simple with trend colors and shapes.
It's very easy to coordinate with GU.
Can you believe that it's only ¥3,000 for total coordinate?!
If you shop in Ginza or Omotesando to get similar items, it would cost more than ¥20,000!
Interior design is also sophisticated. Easy to explore, try them on, and buy♡
And again, GU also has multilingual support too!
How did you like tour in BIQLO?
It's fun and full of convenient support in BIQLO.
Especially, if you have looooooong shopping list, this is the best place to blow them down in short time!
