Sanrio Small Gift Mobile Pop-up Shop at San Francisco's Pier 39

To celebrate their 50th anniversary, Sanrio is touring around the US with their mobile pop-up shops. They were at San Francisco's Pier 39 on Sunday. It was pouring in the early afternoon and luckily when I went their around 5PM, it was dry. I also found a parking space that was only steps away from the mobile shop!

If you're wondering why Hello Kitty is holding a gift box w/ Target's logo, this event was sponsored by them. After making my purchase, they will give you a coupon good for a free box of Hello Kitty bandages from Target plus a 20% off postcard at a local Sanrio store.

The Smart cars have also teamed up w/ Sanrio to create this Hello Kitty car wrap. I really like this. It's all over the car but it's not too overwhelming. The pics below are the 3 items I bought yesterday (2 coin purses and 1 wallet). From what I learned from the Sanrio staff, some many of the products are only available at the mobile pop-up store so they're pretty rare! The hamburger coin purse is my favorite and it's made by Loungefly!

Re-ment x Sanrio Candy & Snack Keychains

Just received my set of keychains. They're mostly candy charms with either Hello Kitty, My Melody, Little Twin Stars or Patty & James on the packages. What I didn't like about some of the charms is that the material is the same cellophane wrapper as real life candy wrappers. As you know, cellophane wrappers are smooth and glossy when new but once you fold or crumble it, the wrapper gets dull and wrinkly. So as keychains, I don't think the charms with the cellophane wrappers will not be able to withstand gentle use. I would rather hang them on my purse so my keys won't rip the delicate wrappers. The other candy packages are vinyl pouches so they will be slightly more durable than the cellophane wrappers.
