So this weekend I thought I would take care of my bargain shopping. For those not in the know, the beginning of July is usually when Japanese stores launch into their summer clearance sales, despite the fact we still have 3 solid months of the heat here in Osaka.It began with meeting Max for lunch break on Friday near the office. His shirt reminded me it was shopping time.

Then I decided to hit up Diesel on Friday after work, and I stopped by Den Den and Namba Parks today.

Here is my haul:

The two top center shirts are Diesel (Psychotronic shirt and a Pink quarter zip camo shirt), left side is French Connection (Ultra-Violence Clockwork Orange shirt and Transformers Optimus Prime slim cut FCUK shirt), and the right side is a random shop in Namba Parks that had those shirts for 525 yen each.The Clockwork Orange shirt is really cool:

I also picked up a pair of FCUK jeans and some Diesel pants.

But no shopping trip would be complete without a trip to Den Den. I picked up Suda 51′s first Grasshopper Manufacture game, The Silver Case.

I also picked up the 360 version of Vegas to replace my PS3 version. The PS3 version is excellent, but it was the Japanese release and I couldn’t get my head around hearing US Spec Ops guys speaking Japanese to Japanese-speaking Mexican leaders but still having the terrorists scream in Spanish. Kudos to Ubi for doing such a thorough job of localizing, but I’m gonna stick with the US English release.

I finished up the day with a burger at Kua’aina, again with Max. On the train back home, I noticed a neat note inside my French Connection bag.

I’m sure many have felt that way.
