Apple Lucky Bag in Japan

Lucky Bags happen everywhere in Japan on January 2nd. Just a few years ago I made the trip and saw Lucky Bags even in a Baskin Robbins Ice Cream shop. Yes, you can get a Lucky Bag of ice cream. People line up for almost every shop, Uniqlo, Muji, and more, and in the end, you don’t know exactly what you’re getting. January 2nd is as hectic as any crowded mall Christmas shopping day in the US. People are everywhere trying to land that special bag of goodies. It’s true that some bags are better than others. When I heard that there’s an Apple Store bag, I was curious and found a blog who reported what they got. Yes, long lines formed for a chance to buy a bag that might have a MacBook Air or an iPad 2, but if you don’t get those special items, you do get a Touch, cases, a Porter bag, t-shirt, headphones, buttons, remote, but is all this worth the $400+? Perhaps, dollars and sense wise, but really, no unless you land the special bag. Either way, the curiosity of what’s in that Apple Lucky Bag is solved and getting in line for one is just a game of “wallet roulette.” (penn-olson – Apple Bag)
