In the May edition of the magazine “Sugar” (young women’s fashion) there is a product that features strawberry flavored items from a store called “Boots.” Does anyone have any idea where this store is? I’d really like to buy the products in the magazine for my strawberry-obsessed friend. Anyway, thank you so much if you know.
Oh, and if anyone knows of any store that just sells strawberry themed items, that would be very much appreciated.

I don’t know if there are any actual Boots stores in Taiwan but some Watsons stores have little sections with Boots stuff. I was in Watsons (Chongde / Wenxin in Taichung) the other day and I’m pretty sure I saw the Boots strawberry products.
It’s funny; Boots is very common in the UK and although their own-brand stuff is good quality, it has a rather everyday image. In Taiwan, however, Boots has a luxury image and I don’t think I’m exaggerating that things are at least twice their UK prices. Last time I went to the UK I brought back a big bottle of Boots body lotion for a friend here.
Yes Watson’s has them and I’m pretty sure I saw a Boots stand at Breeze Center.
There’s one near Sogo on Chungshaio E Rd.
Address: No. 221, Chung Hsiao E. Rd., Sec. 4, Taipei 106, Taiwan
Thank you so much! My strawberry obsessed friend is going to be VERY HAPPY…!!! Thanks so much!!!
I am not totally sure, but I think that Watsons is owned by Boots. Just the Asian version of the chain.
