Weird & Wonderful: Shopping with KG!

I've seen some crazy things in the stores (non-food related, of course), and here are a few of my favorites!!

Head covers for golf clubs... These things are enormous (in a land where everything is small!), and Stitch looks so insane!! It cracks me up!

Miniature golf bags to go with your giant head cover. I'm still not sure if these are just for display only, or maybe marketed for midgets. There is no way a normal person could use this thing! (Look at the Stitch head cover on the far left... it's half the size of the bag!) Here's some coin-operated machines for kids. The kicker is that they cost between $2-$4!!! For a random toy from a vending machine!! I wonder what this top left one is with the fish display?!
Now if you want to make your house safe, just buy these outlet safety plugs shaped as fun-colored animals!! Nothing will draw Junior's attention better than having a toy plugged into a something that could possibly electrocute you!! (No worries, I'm a good aunt... Rylan won't be finding these in her Christmas stocking this year!)
Cute kids shoes called "Dino-soles"! But they come with a pretty price tag, too, over $60.
The Japanese love English, but some times they just don't "get" it. Exhibit A: This shirt reads "I love happy smile dearwish: the wonderful girl of the smile." I think the best part was that as I was taking the picture, I noticed a woman near me who was carrying it over to the check-out register!! Priceless :)
I must get my "eyelashes" done before I come home for the holidays!!
Some bikes have built-in mittens on the handle bars to keep your fingers toasty warm!!
All baby clothes comes wrapped in plastic. It's kinda a bummer because I really like to feel the fabric on most things before I buy. Other clothes aren't like that, so it's puzzling to me.
Some dressers with pretty cool knobs. This place has IKEA beat for sure!!
Foreign food store! I was so excited to find 7-Up, Cherry Coke, and A&W!! Too bad it's $1.50 a can! Still nice to know I have options!
These things are the cool version of Crocs: "Polliwalks". (Complete with even a tail!) Too bad they only come in kids sizes because I'd be all about those pink snakeskin ones ;)
