Hauls from Taiwan

1) Chemical warmer packs or heat packs 暖暖包 (10 packs for NT$118/SGD5.50)

Each pack can lasts 18 hours. Shake the pack a few times (at least 5 times) gently and the pack will gradually warm up. Put it in your jacket pocket to warm your hands. This heat pack is a must buy when in cold countries.
It is still warm when I got back to my hotel so, I put in under my blanket to warm my bed!




2)  Baby Bear Fragrance Spray 熊寶貝清新噴霧

There was a promotion at a few drugstores that sells this fragrance spray, 1 for 1, each bottle costs NT$99/SGD$4.61 (I bought these at Tomod's). It's the same as the Downy Fabric Refresher. Spray on fabric to get rid of smells and your fabric will have light, refreshing and floral (pink bottle) smell! Spray on it, wait for it to dry and you can wear your clothes as per normal. Moreover, the bottle is compact, about 15cm. Slide
One tip, you can bring maybe just 2-3 sets of clothes for a week trip, cuz you can always spray this fragrance spray on your clothes. And save up more luggage space for other stuff!
