Daiso

i had a bad experience when i went down to daiso. When i first entered the store, there were a lot of people that were conjested at the cashier area, and this gives me a hard time as the products I’m looking for are located beside the cashier and i would have to squeeze through the queue just to get my stuff. Not only that, when i tried to look for travel stuff, i took a long time looking for it although there were signboards. However those signboards and the shelves were painted in the same colour and thus making it hard to spot it. The aisle space is also way too small, it could barely even fit 2 people together. Lastly the payment queue is horrible, there were no order and people could just cut into the queue which makes people life more difficult. please do something about it

Before Daiso came to Tampines One, I had to travel all the way to Harbourfront or ION Orchard for my dose of cheap and cute everything. Daiso’s unique selling point is that everything in the store costs only $ 2. What I really adore about Daiso is its limitless range of products from enduring make-​up and adorable Hello Kitty lanyards to toothbrushes. This T1 Daiso outlet is crowded most of the time but it doesn’t matter to me because great deals should always be shared!
When you enter the store, remember to grab a basket because you just never know what you’ll find in there. Every corner I turn reveals something new. The cosmetics section here is wonderful. Since I don’t read Japanese, I sometimes feel a little apprehensive about getting the make-​up here. My skin is unpredictable and I don’t want to risk it so I won’t usually get full face powders or foundations here. However, I’ve tried two types of blushers here, which have lasted me quite a long time. The blushers here are really significant in colour and can stay in tact for most of the day. Some strong stuff! Really love the current blusher that I’m using now which is of a light pink shade and even comes with shimmer. Another thing I like most about the gigantic store is its range of pet toys and accessories! Even flea combs are available here for the usual $ 2, while elsewhere it costs about $ 3.90 onwards.

Daiso has come to Tampines!
I think there’s no need to blabber what Daiso has. There’s a reason why they are doing so well and now have so many outlets around the island! This store is pretty huge as it takes up the corner space at the mall. But no thanks to Tampines for being constantly crowded, the Daiso here is exceptionally filled with shoppers. Also, because of the crowd, a lot of things are left in a mess.
However, there is still a great deal of good finds if you’re willing to brave the crowd. You can find many MIJ products and unavoidably some MIC (C for China) products as well. With every item going at $ 2, you’re not going to burst your pocket even if you have one basket full!

The much-​loved Japanese value store is now open in Tampines with a more sophisticated, modern look.
I love coming here for cheap, quaint finds. Furthermore, as someone who’s into DIY stuff, I also like the fact that I can get cute ribbons, gift boxes and gift envelopes at a fraction of the prices elsewhere!
Just like in all the other stores, the newest Daiso outlet is huge and always jam-​packed.
Daiso sells just about anything under the sun, I found endearing tulip compact mirrors, trash bins in bright sunny colours, candles, snacks, charming craft items, gardening tools… all going at just $ 2 each for quality Japanese-​made products. Most people find this hard to resist, hence the constant crowd in all of their stores.
While the Japanese are known for their impeccable service, I once had an unpleasant experience at one Daiso store last month. I asked a sales assistant whether they had eyebrow stencils. She waved me off and told me to go search for it myself. I was appalled. How can any service staff say that to a customer?
Nevertheless, the staff at Tampines 1 were polite, helpful and all smiles when I visited the store.
