Household Support Project to Combat Rising Prices! Approximately 110,000 Discounted Food Items Gathered for 'Food Mottainai Sale / [Concurrently Held] Special Food Market'

Matsuzakaya Ueno Store will hold its semi-annual "Food Mottainai Sale" from Thursday, May 14th to Friday, May 22nd. After a large-scale revision of food prices in April, price hikes in May have taken a brief pause. However, in June, many daily food items are widely subject to price increases, and the wave of rising prices seems likely to continue. Therefore, we have gathered approximately 110,000 "mottainai" (waste not) food items of about 1,500 varieties, which are discounted for various reasons such as nearing expiration, excess inventory, or irregular shapes! We will support "daily food expenses" with discounted food items, focusing on essential foods whose prices continue to rise, such as rice, coffee, cooking oil, and nori seaweed. For the first time, we are also planning a daily service with different deals every day! The event period has also been extended to 9 days, responding to the growing demand for bulk purchases before the rush of price increases in June.
