The place is pretty big, lots of Japanese merchandise. I had to get some toys for the Christmas gift exchange so I went looking for some toys. Gotten some cheap items for 6-10 year olds. I also bought 2 soup plates on sale made in Japan. I went around 7pm so not much people there. Service was quick and they ask me to confirm if the plates are good before leaving as they are not refundable when on sale. read more

So much smaller than the Markham location! A lot of shelves was missing stock, but the store was really clean and organized. Service was good, quick checkout process. read more

Oh, how I miss Japan--the cleanliness, the unique products, and the attention to detail! This location brings a little piece of that experience back. They have an incredible variety of everything, from beauty products to stationery, all in one place and for a great price. Whether you're looking for skincare, cute office supplies, or a unique gift, there's something useful for everyone here. It's a great spot to browse and discover something new! read more

Oomomo - Discount Store Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I'm honestly very disappointed with this Oomomo location. I commuted nearly two hours to get here, only to find out that most of the store was closed off because they were "counting" The staff said it only happens once a year, but the last time I came, they were doing the same thing, closing sections and blocking access to products. It's really unacceptable for a retail store to disrupt customers like this without any notice. If they need to do inventory, they should plan it properly or at least announce it ahead of time. A complete waste of time and effort. I won't be coming back. read more

Good selection of skin treatment products from Japan. No English labels. Some interesting packaged goods to ponder Lots of everyday items at good prices. Helpful checkout staff but not any staff on the floor to help customers read more

Very nice store with a variety of Japanese goods! Clean and great service. Reasonably priced. read more

Fun to browse and I love checking out their household items and kitchen gadgets. A lot more varieties than the usual dollar store. $2 or more and much more. Price check with cashier before paying as there is no refund or exchange. Ended up buying 10 items or so. Quite a few Made in Japan items but not all. read more

This is my first time at a big-box Japanese discount store. It has so many little things. I would say it is better than Dollarama but prices are also more expensive. Aisles are clean. There are very interesting items. For example, sticky notes come in many different shapes and themes. There are little plastic clear cubes where you can display little items. There are colourful 4 inch tall tripods (actually it has 5 legs) for ... I don't know what. They make announcements in English and Japanese. There are two gender-neutral washrooms. read more

My sweetie and I decided to venture out today to a Japanese version of dollarama. Excitement filled the air upon entering Oomomo for the first time! Before I realized, someone had already grabbed a shopping cart and was well on her way bargain hunting. Anything you can think of as gadget, you're likely to find it here. Many products sourced from Japan or China were in the $2-$3 range which was so disarming as a shopper. Low and behold at checkout time, it wasn't surprising to exceed $50 even though I though we were just browsing. Something tells me that my sweetie just found another Fav store. Happy wife, happy life! read more

I came here with a friend after having lunch in the area, and wasn't sure what to expect. I heard it was a high-end dollar store ... Even though the parking lot is large, it can get very busy. This store is ginormous. I didn't know where to begin. Most of their products are imported from Japan, with a lot of them from the well-known brand, Daiso. You can easily spend over one hour, if not more in here. We were going through each aisle, and it felt like we were watching a tennis match ... left, right, left, right. My head started to spin! There are all kinds of beauty products, beauty tools, towels, scarves, gloves, kitchen and housewares, containers galore, art/office/school supplies, Japanese snacks, etc. I noticed they had matcha green tea powder, but not sure of the quality. There were entire aisles dedicated to facial masks and eyelashes! After going through the entire right side of the store, time was passing by so I upped my game. I gave the rest of the store a quick once over, picked up a few items and checked out. If there is no sticker on a product, the price is $2.00. Some items are costly, such as the snacks aisle, and you can find it for a lower price elsewhere. I came back a second time with my husband, and had more time to look at the entire store. He was quite impressed and liked the packaging and presentation of everything. I was surprised they did not have a larger stock of Washi tape, given that it is a Japanese product (a.k.a. masking tape). A few of the staff members did not know what it was. I managed to find one roll of it when I checked the aisles a third time! The Markham location (First Markham Place) will be a lot closer. An employee said it would be open in June ... read more

Highly reccomend if you love going to nice quality japanese store that holds a variety of products from kitchen-beauty! I went to this place for the first time, i believe it was 2019 on my birthday. Let me tell you, the place is hugeeee! I love this location since i walked in. The recent experience i came to Oomomo was for my birthday of last year, 2020 during the pandemic. They were open with limited amount of people to shop inside and less hours. I fell in love with their beauty section and it was cheaper than most places i get products for. Their face masks and fake lashes are heavenly made! I get a bunch while i'm there since it's very affordable and i don't run out. My parents love their kitchen-dining products so we buy them as well. My sister loves their snack-food area. When we went to the cashier, we were greeted by a fellow filipino which was surprising! He said happy birthday to me while checking out our stuff to go haha! Nothing but appreciation for this place, i wish they can open one in mississauga (cries)! Again try this location when you read more

Oomomo - Discount Store Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This location is not as good as the one in Markham, but it usually does the job. I usually go here for the snacks/food section. They also have a decent stationary/office supplies section. If you're more specific about what you're looking for, the Markham location is MUCH better stocked for home storage, crafts, and beauty/skincare. read more

Ohmygoshhhhh my wish come trueeeee. Finally! Someone brought Daiso and Seria over! ^^ I've frequented Japan's ¥100 varsity stores quite a bit in recent years, so I've become very familiar with their inventory. Oomomo stocks most of the exact items you would find there. All non-labeled items go for $2 unless priced otherwise. Why this store will strive is because they sell practicality. You wonder why the Japanese are so creative and innovative, it's b/c they have shops like these that enable them; they're blessed with variety, quality, and most of all, affordability. Now rather than rave about my ingenious finds from overseas, my friends can see for themselves the awesome inventions of the Japanese! In a way, I'm sad b/c it lowers the uniqueness of my Tokyo ¥100 store hauls, but on the other hand I'm glad b/c I can buy them locally now. Practical items, just to name a few... - Kitchen: glassware, cooking ware, cleaning, bento goods, garnish, cute liquid bottles, wall decoration, shelf liners - tons of designs to choose from - Art: woodworking, scrapbooking, gardening, baking, painting, sewing, journaling, stationary, literature, paperwork, origami - Storage: tons of boxes in various sizes - Bathroom: smart organization, hangers & hooks, various towel designs, first aid, health & beauty products - Electronics: screen protectors ($2!), phone cases, CD/DVD needs, basic cables, audio, tools I don't want to go into too much detail b/c really you gotta see and discover for yourself the practicality of these items. When I was in Japan, part of the enjoyment was looking at diagrams (no English!) and figuring out the purpose of each item, then reaching that "OH!" moment, followed by a "I can't believe someone actually invented this but it's about time b/c it's ingenious and where was this last week when I actually needed something like this??" ...or something like that xD (an example of this in my pic caption) Go check it out! Uptown people: not to worry! There's one due to open at FMP soon, yay! read more

Oomomo - Cigarette attachment for nicotine & tar filter... great for anyone who's trying to quit or taper down! Wow!! - Discount Store Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

And much much more! Reasonably priced. Fun for an afternoon-browse even if you don't plan to buy... but you might pick up and item or two you didn't know you wanted! read more

I love Daiso (a 100 yen store) and I go whenever I'm in Vancouver and San Fran. It's more of a Toonie store than a dollar store, but now a days it's closer to a 5 buck store. Oomomo is definitely nicer than the Daiso in San Fran, but not quite the aberdeen location in Vancouver. But I'll take it! And a bonus that it's close to me. There's also a Seria store down at thornecliff plaza not too far, but that location is tiny. Grand opening day was nuts here and I bailed, so I'll have to go back when it's a little less busy. read more

Very Disappointing Experience I have just bought three bag clips of the same made and they are made in Japan. It is of such poor quality which is absolutely rubbish as it does not clip on any bags. A complete waste of money!! The store has a no refund and no exchange policy which I find rather unacceptable. I have also noticed other items have gone down in quality. The china tea pots are now made in China instead of in Japan. So it is not Japan Living as the company would like you to believe. Personally I will not shop there again unless I can have an exchange of the items I bought that are unsatisfactory and substandard. read more

This just opened on December 8th, 2018 on the west side of Don Mills Rd. just north of Wynford Dr. in North York. The store is the size of a BEST BUY store with a lot of Japanese 'dollar store' items, specializing in the DAISO brand straight from Japan. You'll find anything from kitchen usage, to garden usage, to exclusive imported Japanese snacks and drinks with brands such as CALBEE or MITSUYA. The store is very clean with their employees either constantly stocking the shelves or keeping them in tidy order. With fairly priced items, this place is certainly worth the visit! read more

It's so cool that we've got one of those $2-4 Japanese stores here in the GTA. It's a great place to find cheap little organizational products, dishes, craft supplies and beauty supplies. Many items I find are more for just for fun than anything. Just remember that everything here is under pretty much $2-4 and cheaply made, so most things are made with light plastic and such. That being said, I do wish companies were thinking about the long lasting environmental effects of the products they are offering. Not only are many of the physical products made of a cheap and toxic plastic, but also then wrapped again in more plastic packaging. It's extremely wasteful and very sad to see. While it's a fun place to go and see what weird knick knacks there are, I can't help but just see a sea of pollution as they put almost no thought into being a eco responsible company. For that, I don't see myself returning to support the business and urge others to think before they buy. If you get something here, please make as much use if it as possible read more

Oomomo (which I will nickname as Momo) recently opened in Toronto and is situated within a plaza very close from Shops at Don Mills. If you've heard of Daiso, a 100 yen store in Japan, then this store is super similar in concept. Everything sold within Momo is budget-friendly. Majority of items and which does not have a price tag, is $2. Otherwise it'll be labelled generally at the back of packaging. Momo store space is HUGE! Comparatively, I think it's as big as the Eaton Center Best Buy location. They divide their store into several sections including: makeup and cosmetic items (right hand side when from the entrance), bowls/plates and cups (middle section from entrance), kitchen utensils, laundry and bathroom items, TONS of bins and baskets, stationary, art supplies, and snacks (left most side from entrance). Caution for customers: Having visit Momo for the first time and it being so new in Toronto, I would suggest carving at least 2-3 hours of your day. I went during the weekend. The lineup to get in Momo took about 10 minutes, but after all the exciting shopping and browsing, the wait to cash out purchases actually took us 50 minutes! We started from the far left corner of Momo and weaved around to arrive at the cashiers. I think it's more so the hype and cheap/cute goods they sell. If you can, definitely go on a week day instead. I definitely enjoyed my visit. Although I spent quite a bit of time overall, everything was fascinating (for a girl like myself). I was little disappointed as their snack section was looted out and most items were all sold, not restocked. Nevertheless, I bought myself a lot of baking and cooking utensils which I should put to good use during this holiday! :) Their cashier service was good and fairly quick. The lady who cashed me out was Japanese and explained how the $2 pricing was similar to Daiso but just includes the shipping costs to compensate. read more

It's like the Japanese version of One's. Or P-Mall's Dollar store in their basement near the underground parking/washrooms. Some of the prices were a bit out there, but most of the items had some appeal to them - lots of celebration decoration that isn't your standard banner from Dollarama, interesting diy jewelry tidbits, a snack aisle, bin storage, cleaning/household products, and the list goes on. This place still has quite a bit of hype surrounding it, considering the longer line up upon entering this past week, but it eventually died down after 20 mins. For the most part, the employees keep to themselves, no one's asking if you need help, expect long line ups and that each aisle is not an easy skim - you're thoroughly investigating every knick-knack - things you thought you didn't need, and now suddenly do lol. But definitely check it out - there's lots to see. read more

This store is big, bright and spacious! They have a good selection of items in all different categories; from makeup & skincare, to home organization, to stationary and kitchenware. They definitely carry a lot. I was especially excited to see that they carried a lot of Daiso products. When it comes to makeup and skincare, I found some well-priced makeup tools, sheet masks, and skincare essentials. However, when it comes to stationary and snacks, I think in both sections there just wasn't a good variety. In terms of stationary, there were only a select few pen sets. And in the snack aisles, there weren't many flavor options for candies and salty snacks. I think you can actually find a wider selection of snacks from some Asian supermarkets in the GTA. Overall, Oomomo is pretty decent. It was definitely worth checking out read more

It's not Daiso, but it's close enough. In fact they're opening one soon in Winnipeg, and I can't wait! For those who don't know why many of us crave Daiso so much...it's literally a dollar store on steroids. So many items you wouldn't normally find in a typical Dollarama/Dollar Tree, coupled with household items also at low costs. Daiso's still better though as there were some items that I can probably get cheaper in Dollar Tree, but for the most part this place should satisfy everyone's desires. The store is huge, almost like One's. You're guaranteed to find something that you'd purchase if you're into the Asian twist of households or dollar store items. Employees are helpful, though a bit hard to find at times. Either way one shouldn't have problems finding items as the store's quite well laid out. read more

Soooo many Diaso products, large and lots of cutesie things and variety. From towels, to travel products, toys, cookingware. So many varieties. Love it. I have been waiting for Daiso products to come to Toronto for the longest time. Loving this place, except day 1, grand opening day, line up to get in. And long, long line up to pay. The girl at the front of the line waited 1 hour 20 mins to pay. But I will be back to shop and buy things during a weeknight! Amazing new addition to Toronto. Welcome! read more

I finally got a chance to go to this high end "dollar store" today and it was worth the visit! Upon arriving in the parking lot, my husband and I noted how large the exterior of the building looked and we wondered what was inside that could possibly require that much space for dollar store type items. There were endless rows of different kinds of every possible item you would find at a dollar store but better quality and selection since they are Japanese or Asian brands. One area had different kinds of cosmetic and toiletry needs such as cotton pads, false eyelashes, make up sponges, soap, brushes, toothbrushes, etc. Another area had different kinds of slippers, towels, aprons, reusable grocery bags, etc. Another section had seasonal decor, shelves on shelves of organization baskets, an area for stationary and school supplies, another area for kitchen supplies like utensils and dishes, and the list goes on. Surprisingly, the candy area already needed replenishing! The line was long but the staff were efficient with trying to get through each transaction as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, other staff members were busy restocking items all around the store. Prices by the way for items are $2 each unless priced otherwise. Worth the visit and will go back when I'm in the area! read more

So my first attempt to check out this store was last week, but when I was looking for a parking spot, I saw a lineup out the door. Since I have a very strong aversion to lining up for anything that's not free, I left. I figured I would just go back when the hype died down a little. I was in the neighborhood this afternoon, so I decided to swing by and have a look. No lineup! I found a parking spot and went in. It was incredibly busy, but not ridiculous, so I grabbed a basket and weaved through the crowd checking things out. The aisles are kind of narrow, so it was difficult to navigate at times. I would have liked to look at everything, but since I had a few things to get, I made that my priority. I was surprised to see a few items that were marked at $6 that I know I could find at Dollarama for cheaper, so I don't know how they decide on the price point for their inventory. Some items are priced reasonably, others not at all. I managed to find what I was looking for, and spent an extra ten minutes or so looking at other stuff. I really expected to find a lot more "cutesy" things, considering. I did see a few cool/unique items, that you definitely wouldn't find at most other dollar stores, but I think they also might have been low on stock for other items. After struggling to get through a couple areas, I got deterred from further exploration due to people with shopping carts blocking aisles, or children in the way. Lord knows why anyone would bring small kids to a store like this, but there they were. I gave up browsing and headed to the checkout. The line was pretty long and I did consider ditching my stuff to come back another day, but I stuck with it. The line moved fairly quickly, though, so it was only about a ten minute wait until I was at the cashier. Staff are very friendly and efficient with getting everyone through as quickly as possible. I'll wait a few months and go back to see what else they've got. read more

Price Range: $2 unless otherwise marked (between $2-13) Pros: - Environment: Like a higher end dollar store crossed with the kitchen section of an Asian grocery store. - I came here to look for small household items and secret Santa gifts. They have lots of great gift options such as small Japanese bowls, sauce platters and utensils. As well, there are some random stuff like a rubber chicken. - There was also a good section to buy cards and gift wrap, it's more on the cutesy end but has an expensive appearance to them. - Snack section: this place tends to be sold out but most of the good Asian snacks can be found here - Organizers: similar to muji they also have clear plastic containers and folders that have the style of clean lines and simplicity. - Kids section: with clothes and toys - Overall, I would come here for the snacks, gifts, and organizer tools. However for basic kitchen utensils, bathroom and cleaning tools, I would go to Dollarama. Cons: - Since I'm using Dollarama as a comparison, there are some thing that are still more expensive comparatively. Kitchen, Pet, and Cleaning tools are still better to purchase at Dollarama. - Makeup: I think their makeup section can still be expanded since there's a lot of potential there. They have some face masks and basic grooming items but since face creams and eyeliner are such popular items people buy in Asia, it would be nice to have more selection here. read more

Was super excited to check Oomomo out and was not disappointed! The store is massive and has a few different sections - I mostly looked at the food aisles and the front of the store that had all the cute plates and cups. Since it opened recently, maybe that's why it's fairly busy and the lines are quite long, and the chips aisle seemed to have been completed cleaned out. Everything in the store is $2 unless marked otherwise and everything is cute so be careful or before you know it, you'll have half the store in your shopping basket! The cashiers are super friendly and do an efficient and exceptional job at wrapping the plates and cups with paper. Will definitely come back another day to thoroughly scope out the place (and see if they restocked the chips because I was really looking forward to them!) Hope they open a store downtown Toronto soon??!! read more

Oomomo - Cute food erasers! - Discount Store Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Neat place with a lot of $2 goods (unless otherwise stated on the price tag). Went here during their second or third week of opening and it was incredibly packed with people. They have a bunch of Daiso products in stock and the store itself was a lot bigger than I thought. The location might be far for some, but it's comparable to Ichiban Living in the basement of Pacific Mall (though they've raised their prices to $2.25 a piece). read more

Best Japanese dollar store in T.O l. thus far. $2.00 for unmarked items - cheaper than other chains that popped up. The place is huge. Line up is also huge for the first few days of opening!! Lots of household stuff, crafts, organizational items, and to my surprise, baking boxes and gift bags! Highly recommended! read more

I wanted to see what the hype was all about (as portrayed on Instagram stories). When we got to Oomomo (we visited within the first few weeks that they opened), there was a lineup outside (which I was not expecting because it was almost closing time). The store offers an extensive range of items from Japan. From toys to stationery to snacks to kitchen items to basically almost any item you can find in a dollar store, except the quality of the items looked better. On previous trips to Japan, I did get some awesome products from Daiso (equivalent of a Japanese dollar store) so I was happy to see that Oomomo had these same products to offer. I love how spacious the store is and how much variety they have for the products. It's an ok from me, but not a place that I am dying to go back to (or one where I would drive over half an hour just to purchase something) read more

Stopped by today and found heaven . It has A LOT of Japanese goods you could find in stores in Japan and the prices were very good. If you need anything from home organization, cleaning, baking, stationary, toiletries, it has everything! We ended up buying some china (cups and bowls) and when we checked out, the cashier went through each one and showed us as she inspected each one for damage. Even if you're just stopping by the area, if you like Japanese goods, I recommend stopping by and taking a look. read more

My experience at Oomomo was very positive. Yes I get it, the place is packed, and I was having a hard time walking through in the store. But, the positive outweighs the all negative! I had lots of fun just browsing the store and see what kind of items they offer. It's interesting to see so many things which can be useful for day to day setting. I bought 20+ small items, each of them are $2, expect couple of snacks that were more than $2. Over all, the bill was affordable. I'd definitely return again to explore more. P.s: they have really good selection for crafting. read more

Was soooooo excited to come to Oomomo after the media blitz about this 13000 sq ft Japanese store. What a let down. FIRST, their hours of operation clearly say they close at 9pm on Thursday on both yelp and their holiday hours photos. Using this information, I wanted to arrive just over an hour before closing to avoid the crazy line ups I've been hearing about. Upon arriving, the same holiday hours were posted up in the entrance. There were 10+ other customers in the store. 10 mins browsing the shelves and they start an announcement to go to the cash register and that they are closing in another 10 mins. WHATTTT?! It was only 7:50pm. Let me save you all some time. I was able to browse the store for 20 mins. The store did have SOME daiso products, but oomomo doesn't come close to the real daiso. I didn't feel like there were any daiso products that gave you that premium made/designed in Japan feel with the inexpensive price tag. With dollarama, mini-so and ones better living all over the gta, this store is a hard pass if you have to drive over 10 mins to get to it. The food items, you can get at any high end Asian supermarket or mini-so. The stoneware/cutlery, origami paper, housewares, travel accessories can be found at ones or any dollar store. Toys were Chinatown like. The skin care didn't seem out of this world/sugoiiii. Again you can find most of this stuff at mini-so or p mall. Nothing in the store was seriously kawaii or original. When leaving the store, we asked the employee why they were closing early as all the hours posted said 9pm. He said "it's just today that we are closing at 8" me ".............. ?" Pass pass pass this store unless if you're from the neighborhood. I hope the location opening at FMP can get their ish together better than don mills. read more

3.5 stars This is the Japanese dollar store meets IKEA - well, the kitchen area of IKEA - but with stuff you wouldn't find at either. Or think the home accessories version of Uniqlo. Big airy space and lots of good stuff to outfit the home if you're on a budget. Not crazy about the name though. read more

The store is bright and spacious. They offer a wide selection of items and they do carry a lot of items from Daiso. In regards to pricing, I thought some of the items were reasonable while some were overpriced. Depending on what you're looking for, I don't think Oomomo offers the best value. For example, their snacks are a lot more expensive than similar snacks you can get from bigger chain supermarkets that carries Asian snacks. If you are looking for arts supplies and you need them in small quantities, they offer a lot of items in small packages. So in general I think Oomomo is good for stuff that you need in small quantity. They have lots of stationary that are reasonably priced as well. Oomomo is a decent place depending on what you need. I think it is worth a visit to see what they carry. read more

The hype was real when the store first opened. My friends and I made the drive from the other west end to the east end just to be disappointed. A very large store with nothing to show. Oomomo was very underwhelming and certain items are overly priced versus market value or the quality is too cheap to even bother. It was definitely not worth the drive. Save yourself and go to PMall instead. read more

I haven't been back (yet) but just an update on the quality of the items I purchased. Everything has held up beautifully. The cutting mat I bought is a daily-use item and it looks like new. The hand towels I bought have worn in and washed well. I even bought a frying pan ($5, seriously?) and it's honestly comparable to anything you'd pay $40 for at Canadian Tire. I'm so, so satisfied with my purchases and I would recommend Oomomo to anyone. read more

When I went, lots of items were sold out and being restocked. Seems like a great variety of items, read more

Loved it!!!!! Ever since I've come back from my trip to Australia, I've been in Daiso withdrawal. Now with Oomomo in Toronto, I've gotten my fix. For all of you that are expecting a Japanese dollar store, it's not. Heck, there's no more actual dollar stores in the GTA anyways. Anything that's not labelled at Oomomo, the items are $2. Otherwise they are labelled with a price tag. The store is pretty big, filled with higher quality (in my opinion anyways), selfcare, houseware, organization, arts and crafts, and snack items. Snack shelves were a bit empty with only items that you can pretty much find at any Asian grocery store. But I didn't go for that so I'm not complaining. I could have spent WAY more time there but I had just didn't have the time today. My husband said, "Good thing it's not on your way home from work!" read more
