MUJI / 无印良品

MUJI / 无印良品 appears in 142.日本消费者为何如此痴迷“季节限定”？| 串台跨海电波 as a New Year lucky-bag case inside Japanese Seasonal Limited Consumption / 日本季节限定消费. The source says MUJI’s lucky bags can combine zodiac themes, Japanese regional craft, reservation or lottery access, and a gift-card mechanism that makes the craft object feel like a seasonal bonus.

The example matters less as discounting than as annual brand memory. A buyer who receives local craft plus future store credit is nudged to remember MUJI again at the next New Year, turning a retail campaign into a recurring ritual.
