Where are dollar stores in the Yatap area in Bundang? I need glasses, dishes, silverware and pots. Also, where does one buy one of those backpack carts on wheels that folks use when they go to the grocery store? Sure beats carrying the bags.

I haven't seen a W1000 store as such, but if you go into the Thermopolis building (that's where Homever is) you'll find a large Dollar-type store on the ground floor to the left. As you walk in through the main doors you'll see shops selling scarves and clothes on the right. Go to the left and it's the last shop just beside the escalator. So much stuff in there (kitchen stuff, cleaning stuff, cheap jewellery, cheap basic appliances). You should be able to get all the pots and pans you need plus lots more. Have a blast - and take lots of W1000 bills with you. Smile

PS Haven't seen the shopping trolleys you're talking about but if you find one let me know - lots of us would like to know where to find them.

Gangbyeon had a kiosk next to the bus terminal and they had them there. Some dollar stores have them but they are junk.
