Want to buy a good present for someone? Here some tips for you..
- Think about the person you are buying for. Consider their interests, personality, hobbies etc. Think about what they would appreciate most. Don't just buy something that you think will be convenient; really spend time thinking about their ideal gift.
- Ask their family if they have mentioned anything that they would really like.
- If not, it's time to trawl the shops!
- Go into quality shops, look around and look closely at everything that catches your eye. Imagine you are the person you are buying for. Imagine how much you would use this thing, what you would use it for, how good it would be to them... if it seems like an ideal present, consider it.
- The best thing to do is remember where you see certain things and go and check out some of the other shops! You could find something a lot better, and then you would regret buying the first thing you saw!
- After you have checked what's on offer, decide which item your friend would most like. Check the price, check that it is not too ridiculous! Then buy it!
- Either go to a department store with a gift wrap service or carefully wrap it yourself to get the best results!
- If you can't find anything that catches your eye, get a cute card and put some cash in it.

When is the Good Time to Shop Noritake items???
From my personal experience, New Year Sale (3-4 Jan @ Noritake Garden) is a good time to buy Noritake items because you can get approximately 20 pcs items with 10 000 yen (they call it Lucky Bag). Normally the price will be 20 000 yen for 20 pcs. But it depend on selected items.
Or
They also have some discount on main celebrations such as Christmas, mother's Day, early April (starting Year for Japanese People) etc.
The Noritake Box Outlet Store open ( 10 am - 6 pm).
