Hello Kitty Octopus

It’s too cute to resist I immediately picked up the one in red. But since it’s a little plush, I have to wrap it in plastic before putting it into use or Kitty will turn BLACK ^^””””
And this morning when I register my Octopus card for the Reward program to get some points from our daily grocery shopping for baby Ethan, I realize there is two new mini octopus cards design featuring Hello Kitty complete with a cute phone strap:

The fruits one is really cute and this one is not so prone to dirtiness but I can’t use two octopus at the same time (and I already have one unused regular card back home in Canada!) … I guess I have to pass on this one this time!

hihi~ where are you from?
i love using octopus everywhere in hong kong, but too bad this octopus technology is only widespread in hong kong (or on a less widespread level in the UK), wonder when will we get anything even close to this in Canada!
