To celebrate new years. In Japan, stores offer lucky bags. Lucky bags are sealed bags with merchandise from the store for sale at a discounted price. Usually the minimum you get is 3-4x the value of the bag inside. So if the bag costs 1000Y, then you will likely get 3-4000Y of stuff inside. If it costs 10000Y, then you can expect 30-40000Y of products inside, often more! Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →

This is how they celebrate new years in Japan. Note a distinct lack of fireworks – but quite a lot of balloons!
People tie a bit of paper to the balloon with their wishes for the year (prosperous, wealth, health, etc)

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all my readers! I hope you have a good one and would like to thank you for your support over the year. I’ve included a photo from near my workplace to celebrate today and show you all a taste of where I’m living in Japan over the next year.
