Christmas Crackers

Does anyone know where I can buy Christmas crackers in the greater Tokyo area? I mean the type of Christmas game where two people pull on either end of the cracker and whomever gets the larger part of the cracker gets whatevers inside. Thank you

    Your best bet is to buy it online from Amazon Japan or Don Quijote. http://goo.gl/tTrRfc

    Can you not get them in Costco? A mate sent some over to me this year from back home. I'm surprised they made it through customs/security! Don't tell anyone! Ooops! Anyway, I'll be out and about in Tokyo this weekend, so I'll keep an eye out for some.

    Thanks Kevin and Tomuu. I used to get them in Costco, but they stopped doing them 3 years ago. ;-( They were lovely ones too. Last year, a friend organised a load and gave her foreign friends them as Christmas presents. Great idea. Swore I'd do it this year as she's moved home, but... well you know yourself. So here I am, cracker-less!!!!!

Moving house process

I've been in my apartment for nearly 7 years. I've got my eye on an apartment one station closer to work. But I forgot what it was like to move in here! It was all a bit traumatic... Have you got some packing tips, suggestions for how to move your household goods, and what to save for last?

Golden Week 2025 plans?

This year's Golden Week gives us Tuesday, April 29th, and then potentially a four-day weekend from May 3rd to 6th. How are you intending to spend the break? Will you travel, "staycation", or dare I ask, work through it?
