A must-see for travelers! Homeplus Supermarket offers a buy-one-get-one-free deal, so you can get souvenirs and snacks all in one place.
This time in Korea, we were pleasantly surprised by the supermarket's own brand, #Simplus. Firstly, the space is incredibly spacious, with larger aisles than typical convenience stores or mini-marts. It's completely stress-free, allowing you to leisurely browse with a cart, making it incredibly convenient for tourists or those shopping in bulk.
What really captivated me was the buy-one-get-one-free promotion. Essentials like yogurt, seaweed, snacks, and even toothpaste were all covered in 1+1 labels, offering a wide selection and excellent prices. This promotion not only feels like a good deal, but it also makes you want to buy more to bring back to Taiwan as souvenirs. Besides the 1+1 deals, the supermarket also offers numerous discounts on expired items, often with discounts of 30% to 50%. While the quality remains excellent, you can get them at a much lower price – a truly fantastic value.
Also, I was particularly impressed by the famous Korean toothpaste, which is perfect for gifts or personal use. For those who love shopping for daily necessities back home, this is a true paradise.
As for food, you can buy everything from ready-to-eat snacks like nori sheets, chocolate, and cookies to prepared dishes like fish cakes, rice roll ingredients, kimchi, and instant meal kits. This thoughtful display is perfect for travelers, allowing them to satisfy their shopping needs in one place without having to go from store to store.
In short, Homeplus Supermarket impressed me with its spaciousness, ease of browsing, and excellent value. Whether you're looking for daily necessities, souvenirs, or snacks to stock up on during your trip, it's a truly worthwhile place to spend time. Compared to typical convenience stores, the selection is more diverse and the deals are better, creating a sense of treasure hunting. If I ever visit Korea again, I'll definitely put this place on my must-see list.
