Does anybody know anywhere i can get some good merchandise? | Mell Mell Post Count: 13894 Msg: #2 203 days ago, May 1st 2009 | Hello Kelly | Hello Kitty items are even available here in Gemany and probably where you live too. Is there something special about buying them in Japan? Mel Jo Trouble Jo McCarthy Post Count: 2969 Msg: #3 203 days ago, May 2nd 2009 | Hi Kelly, | Welcome to TravelBlog. Even general toy stores/department stores here have Hello Kitty merchandise - you'll have no trouble finding some.
