Tiffany 5% discount from 20th November



tiffanyAll the items of Tiffany sold in Japan seems to be  discounted 5% from 20th of November.  Tiffany is especially popular among Japanese teenager to 20′s, and they often present Tiffany jewelry to their girlfriend on Xmas Eve. 

I don’t know when this CUSTOM started among young counples in Japan, but I’ve always seen a lot of couples in Tiffany stores in Tokyo.  Actually once my wife asked me the same thing when she was my girlfriend.  I was lucky I could ignore it although I paid more later for that.

For the couples, it’s a nice news.  Maybe they can buy Tiffany a little reasonable price thanks to recent Japanese stronger currency rate. 

As a lament of a man of the past, why do the couple need Christmas so much ? In Japan, they just party all night. Because we are not Christian, why do you all like Xmas so much ?  Let’s party over the new year’s day for Buddha !

Anyway, Xmas is not Japanese related culture at all, it’s for party only.  I don’t think its a good idea for Jesus either.
