Circle-Cross Plate
Sometimes you set aside a little recreation time at a party, right? That’s when O/X (true/false) paddles can come in handy.
Like on TV variety shows, you can hold an O in your right hand and an X in your left and try an O/X quiz! At a wedding party, for example, you could set up a Q&A corner and use these paddles for questions that might be a bit hard for the couple to answer and that guests don’t usually get to ask—like how they first met or memories from their first date.
It could be fun! (lol)
echo mic
You may not always have a full-fledged emcee at a party, but sometimes you’ll appoint someone to keep things moving.
That’s when a toy microphone can really liven things up.
Just holding a mic can make the host look sharper and more official, right? (Haha.) A kids’ toy mic or one that looks just like a real microphone works fine, but these days you can even find microphones with simple gimmicks at 100-yen shops.
There are colorful plastic mics that add an echo effect.
They’re not only handy for the host—you might even use them if the party turns into a karaoke contest.
candle
People often gather to celebrate something and throw a party.
It’s also common to surprise everyone by bringing out a cake for the occasion.
In those moments when the cake is ordinary and you want a bit more impact or flair, candles really shine.
The old idea of putting on as many candles as the person’s age is a thing of the past; these days you can find cute number-shaped candles and message candles, with a wide variety available at 100-yen shops.
Lately, they even sell candles whose flames burn in different colors!

cosplay costume
These days, Halloween costumes have really taken root, and lots of families host parties.
And over the past few years, the Halloween buzz at 100-yen shops has been amazing—the effort they put into costumes and other related items is impressive! It’s great to be able to buy things for 100 yen when you’ll only use them once a year for a party.
Some items cost more than 100 yen, but they’re still cheaper than buying them elsewhere, right? Not just for Halloween, being able to pick up cosplay goods is a real lifesaver—I hope people who want to go for laughs make full use of them!
katusha hat
Not a regular hair accessory headband, but a fun, party-style headband—just putting one on instantly amps up the party vibe! From cute designs and animal ears to quirky ones with eyeballs or text, and even spooky styles perfect for Halloween, you’ll be amazed they’re only 100 yen.
Above all, they’re fun to look at and fun to wear—party items that make everyone happy! Maybe you could even require every partygoer to wear one?
pointer (telescoping pointer / pointing stick)
Pointer sticks, which you often see in meetings and on TV news programs—did you know that 100-yen shops not only sell the extendable kind used in meetings, but also fun, unique versions? How about livening up a party or a quiz contest by using a pointer stick—the kind that, for some reason, makes you want to wave it around or smack it against posters as you point? Even if you don’t have a particular use for it, just having one somehow seems to boost the party mood, doesn’t it? (lol)
wig
Wigs are practically indispensable for cosplay.
These days, you can even find wigs in various colors and lengths at 100-yen shops, right? They’re a must-have for cosplayers, and it’s great that you can pick them up at a 100-yen shop, but they’re also perfect for people who only wear them to parties or don’t use them often—especially since they’re cheap.
From blonde to long black hair, colorful afros, and princess styles, there’s a wide variety available!
