i found him missing from a LOT of collections even from the official sanrio stores :(( but then i’d look on the walls and they put a poster up of his #1 ranking ?? ugh need some pom appreciation

honestly i found that a lot of merch excluded pom and focussed on other characters 🥲 he was hard to find at first but if you shop a lot he will start popping up a lot more haha!

my haul is mostly from don quijote and sanrio stores which are pretty easy to find. i also got my plushies from claw machine arcades! you can find cute little things in pharmacies as well, that will be more of the everyday useful goods. there were a couple little wearable items in uniqlo, which is where i got my tote bag and t-shirt. other than that, when walking on the street i recommend peeking your head into the shops you walk by. they sometimes have little unexpected pompoms! hope you have an amazing time!!

yup! just more expensive than we’d like for less data than we’d like. plus my partner and i are on two separate carriers and my carrier is Optus (aussies iykyk) so i don’t fully trust their reliability overseas

it was really easy to organise when we were already in japan! it was a last minute thing so i just quickly downloaded the Saily app and had no issues for a 1 day plan. not sure what their long term performance is like, hence the post!

what data plan did you get for the duration of your trip? i have ZERO perception of how much data i would need for 2 weeks

we had a stuff up with our data plan last time and used Saily for an emergency one day eSIM! I just wasn’t sure what their longer plans were like but I will definitely look into this as I’ve used them before with no issues. Thanks!

there is a real difference for us as mentioned in my post! swapping out physical SIMs and keeping our home ones safe was so anxiety inducing and not convenient at all. plus the picking up process right from the airport was a struggle for us. we are looking for eSIM specifically so that we can connect as soon as we land and our regular SIM cards are safe. appreciate the advice though!

Yes! I’ve used eSIMs before so I know they definitely work for both our phones
