Cheap character 'pochibukuro'

Yesterday I wrote about shopping for decorative envelopes, known as 'pochibukuro' for the Japanese custom.  'otoshidama' You can read that post, which includes more detail about both 'pochibukuro' and 'otoshidama' here. 

The prices in the mall yesterday were quite expensive, so I'm still on the look out for 'pochibukuro'. Luckily for me, when I was doing the food shopping this morning, I saw the stand pictured in this post. This is at a Beisia supermarket. 

The character 'pochibukuro' pictured are only 99 yen (108 yen with tax) for a pack of four. As you can see, they have many of the popular characters in Japan, such as Pikachu, Doraemon, Detective Conan, Thomas the Tank Engine and Snoopy. They are the best value ones I've seen yet.
