3 Smart Shopping Tips for Souvenirs
Look for '2+1' Deals: Convenience stores always have "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" deals. Use these to get more gifts while staying within your budget.
Consider Size and Weight: Choose boxed or individually wrapped items over bulky air-filled bags to save space in your suitcase.
Check Expiration Dates: Traditional rice cakes or certain snacks may have short shelf lives. Always double-check before purchasing.
