Fukubukuro on Oʻahu
Fukubukuro in Hawaiʻi takes place on Thursday, 1 January 2026.
Fukubukuro — from the Japanese words fuku (luck) and bukuro (bag) — are “Lucky Bags” filled with mystery items sold at a fixed price, often at 50% off or more. The catch? You won’t know what’s inside until after you buy it!
This Japanese New Year tradition has grown in popularity in Hawaiʻi. Select retailers on Oʻahu — from local boutiques to shopping centers — take part in Fukubukuro, offering surprise deals to kick off the year with fun and good fortune.
