Welcome to the Lady Barons Fukubukuro
“Lucky Bag” Virtual event!
Fukubukuro are essentially surprise bags that vendors make which are filled with unknown random contents and are sold to the customer for a substantial discount, usually 50% or more off the list price of the items contained within. The low prices are usually done to attract customers to shop during the new year. The term is formed from Japanese fuku (福, meaning “good fortune” or “luck”) and fukuro (袋, meaning “bag”). The change of fukuro to bukuro is the phenomenon known as rendaku. The fuku comes from the Japanese saying that “there is fortune in leftovers” (残り物には福がある).
