What’s ThreePpy by Daiso All About?
If you’re still picturing your colleague asking you to “Wanna ThreePpy with me?” over lunch, pause a sec. ThreePpy isn’t a playful twist on romance— it’s a brand-new store from Daiso that opened its doors last week at Funan Mall.
Why the name “ThreePpy”?
- It’s a short drop for “300 yen and happy.”
- Think of it as the “middle child” of Daiso: not the ultra‑budget 100‑yen shop, but also not a full‑price department store.
- Imagine a hybrid of a gift shop and a miniscule lifestyle store—think Miniso meets The Green Party.
What can you actually buy?
- Body‑of‑the‑store goods: pretty mugs, plushies, desk accessories.
- No “DIY” staples like cable ties or hardware.
- Prices vary more than at Daiso: most items hover around S$5.80, but you’ll also find goodies tagged at S$8.80 or even S$15.80—just in case you’re feeling a bit fancy.
Is it worth a trip?
In a world where platforms like Lazada or Qoo10 let you snag “cheap” stuff from anywhere in a swipe, the real question is: What vibes does ThreePpy bring? It’s more about the experience than the price.
A Quick Snapshot of What’s Inside
- Jewellery & hair accessories (S$5.80)
- And so on… (the full stack is tiny, so the list is short)
All in all, ThreePpy offers a splash of charm that’s a little way off the usual shopfloor, making Funan Mall a fun stop for a quick budget‑friendly “gift” or simply a feel‑good indulgence. If you’re either into quirky mugs, cuddly toys, or just love the buzz of a new shop, it’s worth a peek—without breaking the bank.
ThreePpy: The Budget Bae for Girly Glam
If you’re eyeing ThreePpy from the outside, you’ll notice it’s a vibe‑filled shop that offers a smorgasbord of chic, sweet‑tooth accessories—think earrings, necklaces, and those glitter‑pop hair bobbles—all at a wallet‑friendly price tag of about S$5.80 each.
Price Point: Sweet Enough to Make Your Wallet Smile
- Most items hover around S$5.80, which pretty much screams “costume jewellery at the perfect deal.”
- Compared to the big brands (like Chameleon or Montip), the price range feels just right for those looking to add sparkle without breaking the bank.
Style: Kinda “Sofia, but Cheaper”
- The aesthetic tilts heavily toward delicate and feminine—think small, pretty gold hoops and pastel necklaces that look like they’re straight from a Japanese kawaii catalog.
- It’s a bit plain if you’re after something extravagant—nothing too bold or edgy, just sweet and classic.
Bottom Line
There’s no crystal ball for quality vs. price, but the low cost—paired with a distinctly girly style—makes ThreePpy a solid quick‑stop for anyone looking to flare up their everyday look with a little sparkle without paying a premium.
Watches That Won Memories
I was all set to be amazed, but the only thing that left a grin on my face were the understated watches.
- Price Check: They’re a tad pricier at $8.80, but hey, “quality is priceless,” right?
- Strap Talk: The faux leather looks like it might peel after a few wears—think of it as a “bananas‑peel” style for the adventurous.
Storage Boxes: A Missed Opportunity
Daiso always sells me so ’bout that killer collection of organizers, so I felt a little let‑down when ThreePpy’s lineup was basically a zip‑code on “mini‑compact” scale.
- Price Tag: S$5.80—romance of small prices for big clutter.
- Expectation vs Reality: It’s like ordering a full-size pizza and ending up with just one slice.
Why I’m Not Rushing to Buy 25 White Storage Boxes
Picture those slick, all‑white boxes staring back at you, full of promise. They’re pretty minimalist, but that’s not the only thing catching my eye.
The Design Vibe
- Clean lines that look like they belong in a high‑end design catalog.
- Bright, simple color that can sneak into any décor without screaming.
The Price Tag Drama
At $5.80 a piece, they’re almost twice the price of IKEA’s Samla boxes. That’s a hefty jump for something that feels like just a fancy shoebox. In my brain, the cost curve looks a bit like a steep hill you don’t want to climb.
My Practical Playbook
- Cost efficiency: 25 boxes of a $5.80 item quickly add up. Is the extra ¥1.80 per box worth the extra storage?
- Shopping convenience: I’ve already spotted these at a “regular” Daiso in JB, so I can grab a few without breaking out a spreadsheet.
- Lifestyle balance: The whole house could be stocked with these, but maybe I should spread my spend more wisely.
Endgame: A Thoughtful Decision
Instead of going full-on 25‑box mode, I’ll opt for a couple of these quiet storage heroes. That way, I keep my budget intact, add a splash of design, and leave room for the next big purchase.
Crystal‑Clear Sneaker Stash: A Low‑Cost Alternative to Muji
Ever wanted that sleek, minimalist look from Muji’s acrylic storage line but without the price tag? These fully transparent boxes deliver the same vibe with a wallet‑friendly price. They’re perfect for those who love seeing their kicks but don’t want to break the bank.
Why These Boxes Rock
- Transparent Design – Keeps your sneakers on display while maintaining that clean aesthetic.
- Budget‑Friendly – A fraction of what Muji charges; you’ll be glad you didn’t splurge.
- Versatile Size – Fits most sneaker models without the bulk of larger cases.
- Easy Assembly – Snap it together and you’re set. No extra tools required.
Pro Tip for Sneaker Lovers
Stack them in your closet or on a shelf to let your collection shine. The clear panels let every inspiration step out, and you’ll swear you’ve upgraded your entire sneaker setup.
Bottom line: If you’re chasing that coordinated look, these boxes are a budget‑smart choice that still delivers that coveted Muji‑style flair.
ThreePpy’s Soft Storage Boxes: Affordable, Functional, and (Well…) Not On‑Point
Looking for a budget‑friendly way to keep your closet tidy? ThreePpy offers a line of soft storage boxes that are a blast from the past—in the sense that they work just fine but don’t exactly make your wardrobe look chic.
What’s in it for you?
- Price: They’re priced way below Muji’s polyester/cotton/linen soft boxes, so you won’t empty your wallet.
- Functionality: Move those sweaters, jackets, and pajamas around without the bulk or the frills.
- No Fancy Finish: No matte chic, no designer vibe—just plain soft fabric that keeps your clothes safe.
Why it’s a Good Choice (And Why It Might Not Be)
When you need to shuffle that Sunday wardrobe or stash a rainy season’s blankets, these boxes are a practical solution. However, if you’re dreaming of a Marie Kondo‑approved closet that glows with wholesome design, you might find these boxes a little… underwhelming.
Bonus Section: The Plush Toy Shortcut
Feeling crafty or just in the mood for a wholesome addition? Check out the PLUSH TOYS—they’re only S$8.80 each. Use them for decorative purposes or as a quirky storage charm. They’re fun, inexpensive, and definitely a better visual lift than the boxes alone.
Singapore’s Plush Toy Frenzy at ThreePpy
Ever notice how Singaporeans seem to have a 24/7 appetite for cuddly companions? It’s no secret—every alley, mall, and even the back corner of ThreePpy is lined with plush toys that just shout “huggable!”
Why The Stuffed Vibe is So Irresistible
- They’re soft as clouds—perfect for a quick squeeze after a long day.
- They’re portable—carry a bounce of joy wherever you roam.
- They’re talkative—just look at the smiling faces, they never cease to brighten your mood.
The Price Tag—A Cozy Bargain
Thanks to mass production in China and the wonders of globalization, the cost of ultra-soft plushies has plummeted. The market rate is comfortably under S$10, and ThreePpy’s S$8.80 price tag feels like a steal—imagine getting a furry best friend for the price of a fancy coffee.
Bottom Line
So if you’re walking past ThreePpy’s plushy wall, don’t just glance—get in line. You’ll leave with an apple‑sized cuddle that will make your Monday feel a lot more bearable. And hey, if you ever need a talk‑ear, that plush thing’s got your back—literally!
ThreePpy: A Budget‑Friendly Kitchen Fix
In short, the shop doesn’t offer much beyond its low prices. The designs are essentially the same as any other mass‑market brand—think cute cats and bears—so you’ll find nothing that screams “original” compared to places like Miniso or The Green Party.
Who’s This For?
ThreePpy’s main audience turns out to be the trusty aunties. With kitchen gadgets available at just S$5.80 each, you can stock up on everything you need to keep the kitchen humming without breaking the bank.

Microwaveable Rice Mug: Your One‑Person Kitchen Hero
Ever feel like your dinner routine has become a daily struggle? Men, women, children, couples— you’re not alone. But if you’re flying solo, the Daiso microwaveable rice mug might just be the side‑kick you never knew you needed.
Why It Rocks
- One‑Serve Magic: No more wrestling with big pots or paying for a whole pot of rice you’ll never finish.
- Zero Cleanup: Toss the mug after use. No more dish‑washing wars.
- Instant Gratification: Pop it in the microwave, watch the rice bloom, and eat—no waiting for the kettle to boil.
- Portability: Perfect for dorms, apartments, or even that tiny kitchen in your tiny dog’s kennel.
- Brand Trust: Daiso isn’t shy about sending you a quality product that’s affordable and fun.
How It Solves the Single Life Puzzle
Picture this: You’re at the end of a long day, hungry, with the urge to “just toss something in the microwave.” That’s where this mug swoops in like a superhero in a flannel shirt.
“I’ve finally killed the whole rice‑over-fifty‑minutes‑long‑on-a-planet-that-might-not-even-need-a-bathroom-issue.” — Anonymous single
What’s Next? Take It to the Next Level
Pair the mug with a hand‑held spice pack, drizzle some soy sauce, or toss in an egg for a ticket to Flavor Town. The only thing you’ll regret is not buying one sooner.
Final Verdict
Yes, the microwaveable rice mug is a triumph for single folks. It saves time, cuts waste, and promises that your last bite of rice is actually the first bite of your monthly dinner plan. Grab one from Daiso and start your single‑person kitchen revolution!
Why Your Kitchen is Basically a Fancy Spa
Those salt, sugar and tea canisters look slick enough that you almost feel guilty for treating your kitchen like a boutique hotel. Sure, you’re paying a little extra than you’d at Daiso, but hey—your countertops deserve a touch of glam.
Cleaning Gear That Looks Like It Just Walked Out of a Fashion Magazine
- Neon‑green toilet scrapers that scream “Summer Vibes” every time you use them.
- Lavish scrubbing pads that look more like a spa treatment than a quick clean‑up.
- Designer microfiber cloths that make you wonder if you need any cleaning at all.
People often ask, “Are you really upset with the designer cleaning tools?” I’m not here to hate on them. In fact, I think personalization is key.
Cleaning Is Already a Pain in the A—
We’re all tired of the dreaded chore. Adding extra stress with a ball‑punched, neon‑green scrubber? No thanks. Let’s keep the cleaning experience as smooth and look‑good as possible.
A Lighter Look at Everyday Tools
Without the obvious “chio factor” (that instant charm that makes something seem cooler than it is), these brushes, dusters, and squeegees feel more like a joke than a practical helper.
Brushing? Not Really Needed
Honestly, they’re about as useful as a kazoo in a library. Keep them on the shelf for a rainy day or an extra‑wide rug.
ThreePpy & That Nordic Broom Dream
Unless you bring in a fresh batch of Nordic‑style brooms and mops, I’ll be back, eyeing another look that actually sweeps the room clean!
Home Fragrances
- Price range: S$5.80 – S$8.80
- Light scents that transform your digs from “just a living space” to “home, feel good.”
Freshening Up Your Bathroom Without Breaking the Bank
Ever step into your bathroom and feel like you’ve walked into a small sauna? Before you whip out an Aesop candle and start pretending you’re a scented‑oil connoisseur, take a look at ThreePpy’s reed diffusers.
What Makes ThreePpy Diffusers a Smart Choice
Price: $5.80. Packaging vibes: compact and cute—just the right size for any countertop. A diffuser works better with your décor than a pricey flamethrower, and it’s way cheaper.
Key Perks
- Limited scent options—perfect if you only want a single fragrance for a simple vibe.
- Gift‑ready appearance—great for a small token of appreciation or a door gift for your neighbor.
Bottom Line
ThreePpy’s reed diffusers give you a quick scent fix without draining your wallet. Give them a shot before you dive into high‑end candles. Your bathroom (and your bank account) will thank you.
Why the ThreePpy Sneak‑Peek Might Miss the Mark
ThreePpy’s new Singapore spot is a tiny pop‑up that’s harder to find than a good sushi roll in a sushi chain. It has fewer shelves than Daiso and its vibe feels more like a thrift‑store test‑market than a full‑fledged haven of quirky goods.
Room Sprays That Keep It Fresh (Literally)
- S$8.80 for one of two calming blends: geranium & lavender or lemongrass & tea tree. These scents are a clean, quality trade‑off for anyone tired of the candy‑flavored, faux‑fruity fragrances.
- Hand‑crafted in Japan, so the “Made in Japan” label carries a promise of reliable craftsmanship.
Testing: The Hardest Part of the Experience
No testers means you can’t do the classic “sniff before you buy” run. If you’re adventurous, ask a clerk if you can open a spray and give it a whiff. It might save you from buying a scent that ends up smelling like your laundry room.
ThreePpy’s Reality Check
I’m a total Daiso devotee—my bookshelf is practically a shrine—to cute sakura‑scented giftware. I’d jump on a trip to my favourite S$2 store for a thrill‑seeker’s inventory.
But the Singapore branch? Think tiny, jumbled, and frankly a bit sad. Its sales floor has the feel of a miniature version of Chinatown’s flea market, not the glorious labyrinth of wonders that Daiso offers. The shelves are mere inches—they’re not the treasure trove you’d expect.
Timing and Price Perception Matter
- Opening in 2019, when shoppers had already over‑exposed themselves to plush toys and adorable décor on every mall and online portal, made the effort feel redundant.
- Prices between S$5.80 and S$15.80 no longer look like a bargain; we are used to Taobao discounts that make a $15 toy seem pricey.
Final Word
By all means, if you’re strolling through Funan Mall, stop by ThreePpy (B1‑17) for a quick glance. It may be worth a short detour for the sake of curiosity, but a full‑on pilgrimage is probably overkill.
