New Year's LUCKY BAGS in Japan!!! Worth the Hype?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- The Hype: Fukubukuro (福袋) or Lucky Bag is a Japanese New Year custom where stores assemble grab bags filled with unknown random contents & sell them at a substantial discount, usually 50% or more off the list price. Popular stores' fukubukuro are often sold out quickly & some stores have lines of people waiting to Get Some! Recently, orders can be made online & the goods delivered or picked up at your convenience.
----------
The Reality: Fukubukuro are an easy way for stores to unload excess & unwanted merchandise from the previous year, due to a Japanese superstition that one must not start the New Year with unwanted items from the previous year & start clean. Nowadays, some fukubukuro are pushed as a lavish New Year's event, where the contents are revealed beforehand, but this practice is criticized as just a renaming of selling things as sets.

Lucky bags are such a great idea! Wish they did similar in the UK!
That finger flick machine was awesome! Love the Japanglish!
Seen lucky/mystery bags sold at Comicons in the UK from different vender but that's about it. Regular shops should do them including food places... A subway lucky bag would be cool 😋
What a fun video to watch. The Dad-Son duo should become a routine. Mega is the best cohost ever. His cool and calm nature is a perfect match for Eric's more extroverted nature. Amazing chemistry. More, please. Thanks, Eric. You are a fun Dad.
だいぶ前から鉄ありましたよ😂

Nothing against mega but I like the videos with just Eric better I usually only hear mega say yeah ab 4000 times in a video an that’s it
Love the father son videos alot ❤️❤️❤️ please more videos
@@rickygrayson7070 guessing you don't have kids.
What a great comment I couldn't have said it better
Adorable to see them modeling the clothes and enjoying themselves. “This is nice!” ❤
hearing megabrain giggling at u both trying to get off the beanbags made me smile from ear to ear, hes a sweet kid, every video u do with him is my fave!!!
Hi rs cloe, may i ask? I got a message that I am a snack pack winner? Any way to confirm it is really Eric?
@Another Butt4Chair he will usually comment on your comment on here but im not sure if thats changed now, he will only really ask for your email if it is him:)
Eric's Drip Time !! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love it when your son joins you for the video. You both really enjoy each other company it's heart warming.
Thanks for sharing! This was so fun to watch! My mom passed away in 2017 and we had a close relationship like you and Mega🥰 It made my heart so happy watching you guys try on clothes together and laugh and just be yourselves!
Family time is precious! ✔💯😇
So Glad to c you an son 🇹🇹💕😍🙂 happy New Year 🎉
Wactching the opening of your Lucky bags was a lot of fun . You guys kept me laughing. And the finger flick game ,what a riot. Love it!
Thanks Sharon! Finger flick ftw! ✔💯😇
Lots of fun.Awesome things. Enjoy watching your content. Keep it coming in 2023. Blessed
I love this. I look forward to this every year. It’s so much fun. I wish they did it by us. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

さとみくんまた噛んじゃってるの…🤦🏻♀💞
Another extra video. Thank you... looks like your living off ice cream and burgers for the next few days 😄 🤣 sounds like heaven! X
I love it when mega smiles, you have a great family you guys look like you have so much fun together
I sent an email with all my info
Hey guys good morning and hello from New Hampshire USA!!! Thank you for all your great content and keeping us entertained. I hope you and yours have a fantabulous year. God bless! 🙏❤️👍
Your Japanese New Year vids are a New Years watching tradition now for me. Thank you and happy New Year.
Same for me too
Y’all got some awesome deal!! Especially the puma bag, this was a fun video, mega is really coming into his own 💗
That was a lot of fun to watch.
Great lucky bags if your favourite colour is black 😂
I love the idea of lucky bags to celebrate the New Year, although most lucky bags or mystery bags over here are usually just full of rubbish they can't sell.
Japanese stores seem to have better morals when filling their luck bags :)
Great video!
The end of the video is hilarious where you asked what the pillow says and the game immediately says: Today's a good day for challenge 😄 🤣
I loved watching you open all the bags, especially the housewares. That wooden bowl is lovely. Happy New Year‼️😊
The houseware stuff is nice! ✔💯😇
Some nice lucky bags, and nice to see Mega feeling a bit more comfortable. Best of wishes to you both!
Mega became way more comfortable in front of the camera. It is nice to see your adventures throughout years Eric :)
is he his boyfriend?
@@galinag.8386 Mega is his son!
Love the surprise bags, I agree the ones that are open and visible just seem pointless...it would be like giving everybody Christmas gifts but unwrapped !
Mega brain is so grown up now! I remember when he was just a little kid. Awww, great video!
Thank you for watching for so long 🤗
Mega looks so confident on the camera now! cheers get some!
Absoluutly loved this video laught so much. I love that kitchen bag its so beautiful.
Oh the china is beautiful! Thank you for the video Eric!
Fun video. Mr. Donut wow. Brings back memories. We had these in the United States but all are gone except 1. Mister Donut was my favorite growing up. Happy New Year.
Wow you guys got a lot of nice thing from that shopping store 👍 what I good way to start off 2023 save those two fish 🥃 for a good beer or a ice coffee on your day off. The puma brand I seen it once on a commercial but the DC & armor brand is new to me the high quality clothing look great 😃✌️❤️
Eric you are spoiling us with all these awesome videos in the last three days.
That intro was awesome lmao, I love how he was trying to stay in the camera and kept looking at you 😂
Damn I love the Japanese people. These last 5 years have been an honor making battery cells with Panasonic and the Japanese.
Happy New Year to everyone. I have to say I love the lucky bags every year
These New Years videos are so great. All the best to you and your family in 2023.
Always fun to watch you guys opening gifts. Such a good feel good video.
Wow what a beautiful blue day! I'm glad to see the Eric meal time intro again haha ha
Crazy knowning i have been watching this channel for over a decade. Kind of forgot about it (as always :P such is life) But i saw the video pop up in my feed and it reminded me. Great content as always. Love the energy. The kids are all grown up now haha
A bonus today! Lots of great stuff; my favourite was the kitchenware, but you can never go wrong with Under Armour. The Baskin Robbins ice cream looked so dense & delicious & was thoughtfully served in a cone, with a spoon; that's brilliant. The Village Vanguard bag didn't seem as exciting as they usually are, but I got a chuckle when the game said "today is a good day for challenge" as you were showing the pillow during the outro 😅
Jeezus! I haven't seen a Mister Donut... in ages!😳
Neat explanation Eric.✨👍
When Eric put the beenie on I thought "Bringing down the house" with Steve Martin! 🤣
this was lovely, these are pretty cool concepts for purchasing. i'm always amazed seeing how different things are in different places.
So happy to see you still look great Eric!! Don't know how I accidentally unfollowrd ur channel! Great deals! Ur son is so handsome!
Thanks for re-following! ✔💯😇
Eric, Happy New Year to you and your family from NY. First, seeing Mt Fuji was a treat, have enjoyed traveling to Japan 3 times and loved it! The Lucky Bag custom was fun to watch, great surprises! I have a love of all things Japanese so enjoy your videos. Had the best cold coffee from a vending machine while there.
That was great fun! As everyone says, I really wish my country had New Year's Lucky Bags. They look like super fun!
happy new year Eric! Awsome to see another video with MegaBrain again, been awhile. I will enjoy your videos untill the day I die! And i am young lol. What a treasure this channel is.
Your videos are always fun and entertaining. Thank you for sharing.
Another wonderful video Eric. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing you with your son.
These are awesome videos Eric thank you, I've never heard of lucky bags!
You guys made out pretty well. A bunch of new clothes that look good on both of you. Some free food, etc. I think the dishes were my favorite, though. I wish they had these lucky bags in the US.
Loved the video!! I would have liked to go shopping with you, especially to the cooking store and ice-cream place. You always have great videos, please do more with your son. Have a wonderful day, LeAnn 🦋🦋🦋
The icecream bag was so cool lots of great stuff in it and the fish cups amazing stuff always amazingand fantastic videos you put out all the time ::))

Another video I can't wait for each year from you, the lucky bags! Great to see Mega getting more involved all the time
My family and I just got back from a Japan vacation two days ago. Im wide awake now at 4am and watching this video! (Normally wake up at 630! Jet lag in effect!)
Thanks for the video EricSurf6!
Happy New Year from Down Under. Our household totally look forward to 2023 with Eric and Mega. Cheers.
Yay, I was hoping you would do the Lucky bags. Always love it when you do them. 👜
Those bags are awesome 💜
And so much fun!! I have never seen anything of such here in the united states.
Love the video 😊
The lucky bags were loads of fun and worth the effort. My eyes are still watering after the thought of the nasel hair remover. The lucky bags put the fun into Christmas time. 🎁☃️🎄🎅👍🙂
Cheers Duncan! ✔💯😇
A lot of fun! You two have a great New Year.
It's June 2024 but I loved watching your shopping haul! I'm grinning ear to ear. Great ending! I'm itching to finger flick the machine to try and beat your top score! LOL 🤣🤣🤣
That was fun, thanks, guys. Now you will have a LUCKY Happy New Year!

What a fun video! You got quite a haul. I think you got a really good deal on all the clothes and I loved the BR Washi tape. Those dishes were very nice. Oh and No Carl's or Hardees here in Upstate NY ... sadly. And All Hail Finger Flicking King! 🤣🤣
Love the video! I would go crazy buying them.
🎉Happy New Year! 🎉 You'all got a lot of gifts for New Years!
i just love Japan's Lucky Bags! So many different types of bags. love the vids!!!
Thanks Kel. Always fun to open them up!
These are so awesome I wish we had this year! I wish you luck and prosperity my friend 🎉😊
I wish for more adventures. Not just vending or food reviews. Like father and son travel vlog to show what japan has that we havent discovered yet. Happy new year to you both!
Yeah! Bring back Eric Vlog Time!
I tried that before and nobody watched. Time to try again? 🤔
Thanks! I'm interested in doing other types of content. ✔💯😇
@@ericsurf6 let's do it! I'd love to see more different kinds of content from you Eric!
I loved this video, so fun
35:47 I love the ice cream washi tape
Best Video this year. 😁 I love the idea of the lucky bags. DO NOT, DO NOT use that nose hair wax not only will it hurt like heck but you may start a bad nosebleed. Just toss it.
That was a fun video it be fun doing that on New Years all the time
Really enjoying Eric and mega together here’s to an epic 23 and more cool content from you guys
Cheers and beers from Ireland 🇮🇪
Loved this video! You guys are awesome ❤❤
Thanks for this vlog. Happy 2023!
Awesome video :) I love the clothes you got , very nice .
I guess that I would only go to the electronic shops.....
Thank you very much, Eric and Mega, for sharing your wonderful documentary with us.
Never!!! Fake!!!
Look forward to these videos
The US should do mystery grab bags. You two Really racked up on some super cool clothing. Almost all of my athletic wear is Under Armor. Under Armor are big supporters for law enforcement and Military which is why I love them❤️ Where I live the under armor gives law enforcement 15-30% off all purchases when I show them my police ID and badge. It means so much to me💙
One of my fav videos every year
Thanks Jamie! ✔💯😇
Great video, as always. Good price for all those clothes. Canada needs to do this instead of Boxing day deals. The gift bags for food is also a great idea. That finger flicking game was funny. Thanks for the laughs and entertaining my husband and I. 😊
I use washi tape for artwork. That looked like pretty cute washi tape. Thanks for checking out so many different bags.
Great video guys the mystery bags look like alot of fun. Happy new year!
