Ichiban Kuji Lottery

 

April Fool's Day!

I am playing online kuji lottery as well as online claw catcher since I cannot go out. My first thoughts are its kinda expensive at around USD $10 a try, but then again, its the same price as the Japanese websites and toy stores. There are instant kuji lotteries or blind boxes and even complete sets of kuji lotteries for you to setup at your next house party / minimart. My online purchase of kuji lottery tickets is a live youtube streaming of the actual lucky draw.

I purchased 9 chances in the Sanrio Chara Attack lottery (that has picnic baskets), 6 chances in Quintessential Quintuplets (hoping to win figurines of all five girls), 6 chances in My Melody & Kuromi Goes Travelling (plushie bags as well as luggage!), 5 chances in Sailor Moon Happy Girls (I really want one of the scarf keychains), 3 chances in Sailor Moon Princess (I only want the Sailor Moon figurine), 2 Kantai Shoukaku Kai figurines (archer girl) and 1 Kotsubu Penguin Plushie.

My Sanrio Chara Attack order arrived as 1x pompompurin eating keychain, 2x My Melody plushies, 1x mini light-up acrylic globe stand, 5x Sanrio wood dolls. My Melody & Kuromi Goes Travelling order arrived as 2x plushie coin pouches in My Melody and Kuromi, 2x Kuromi vanity boxes with mirror, 1x Kuromi dustbin, 1x My Melody towel. My Sailor Moon Happy Girls order arrived as 2x hand towels, 3x bag charms and a few double chance tickets.

I found some of the Kuji Lottery items for sale on Shopee and Carousell. You can just buy the items you want without playing the lottery. Over at Bugis+ I found another kuji lottery store and bought out the last ticket for Pokemon Eievui & Floral Candy, you get to have the "last item" special prize if you do so. Trying out my luck with just 1 ticket for Natsume Cat Cinema and 1 ticket for Last Encore. Live YouTube drawing every friday afternoon.

There are a few more kuji lotteries around, this lucky plaza shop had some blind box keychain plushies (I bought 2 sea animals), Natsume Cat Flower Melody (I bought 11 chances), Natsume Cat Festival (I bought 18 chances plus last draw), My Melody & Kuromi Goes Travelling (I bought 11 chances). There are duplicates, like these canvas tote bags and I will be trading these with other people who also have duplicates. Just like that I spent over $1,000 on kuji lotteries in total.
