October at Daiso is mostly about autumn outing and travel goods, plus accessories with traditional Korean patterns. Daiso’s official season page now lists the ‘2026 Autumn Is Here’ and ‘2026 Traditional Beauty’ series, and the recommended keywords on Daiso Mall include between-season clothing like bed socks, anoraks and windbreakers. As of September 26, the official season page doesn’t list this year’s Halloween items yet.

Autumn Season Arrivals — ‘2026 Autumn Is Here’
This is this autumn’s lineup from the season/series section of Daiso’s official website. Most of it is bags and small goods for picnics, camping and trips, so it’s handy for outings with kids. Prices are as listed on the official page.
| Category | Items | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Outing bags | Acorn pouch / Duffel bag (black, khaki) / Two-pocket crossbody bag (black, khaki) / Foldable backpack (black, khaki) | 2,000 won / 3,000 won / 5,000 won / 5,000 won |
| Eco bags & pouches | Eco bag / Mini eco bag / Water bottle eco bag / Pouches (large, medium, flat) | 3,000 won / 2,000 won / 2,000 won / 3,000, 2,000, 1,000 won |
| Crafts with kids | Shape punches (maple leaf, leaf) / Knitting DIY kit / Felt stickers (2 sheets) / Photo-frame stickers (2 sheets) | 1,000 won each |
| Picnics & camping | Foldable cushion mat / Button-up reversible blanket / Lightweight hats (ball cap, bucket hat) / Fashion bandana (blue, khaki) | 3,000 won / 5,000 won / 3,000 won / 2,000 won |
| Travel | Neck pillow / Luggage belt / Luggage name tag / Luggage decoration stickers (2 sheets) / Slide zipper bags (S, M, L) | 5,000 won / 2,000 won / 1,000 won / 1,000 won / 1,000 won |

👶 Kid Tip: The maple-leaf and leaf punches are great for making autumn cards out of fallen leaves from the park or colored paper. At 1,000 won, there’s no reason not to try. The foldable cushion mat and reversible blanket are worth packing instead of a picnic mat for autumn outings.

- Prelude Dinto Woncho Radiance Cushion — best at a soft, glowy skin look.
- Daiso Tag Skin Fit Cover Balm — a clinging melting balm that seems to melt into the skin.
👶 Kid Tip: On busy mornings getting kids ready for daycare, one 5,000-won cushion is all you need. It covers well and the price is easy on the wallet, so it works for everyday use.

Word of mouth on social media keeps these items selling out at store after store. Restocks go fast, so it helps to check store inventory in the Daiso app too.
- Large handle tumbler “Datanley” (900ml, 1,200ml, 5,000 won) — a large-capacity tumbler that went viral for costing about 1/10 of a popular brand-name tumbler.

This year’s release date and lineup need to be confirmed through official announcements, and we’ll add them to this post as soon as they’re up.

🔍 Recommended Product Details — If You’re Wondering What the Fuss Is About
VT Reedle Shot 100 Facial Boosting First Ampoule
An essence with micro-needles in it. The idea is that it delivers active ingredients deep into the skin without damaging it. At Daiso it works out to 250 won per ml, about 1/3 the price of the full-size Olive Young version (860 won per ml).
🔥 Daiso beauty’s undisputed No. 1 sellout — even with restock alerts, people often miss it.
🎬 Same ingredients as the Olive Young version? → comparison videos (Korean)
Stock updates get shared in real time in social media communities.
Son & Park Arty Spread Color Balm
A multi-use balm for lips and cheeks, known as the “budget Chanel Lip & Cheek Balm.” It comes in three shades: 01 Sunset (warm peach coral), 02 Peony (cool pink) and 03 Mellow (neutral fig pink). 3,000 won at Daiso.
💄 Sold out at stores nationwide right after launch
🎬 03 Mellow vs 01 Sunset — which should cool tones buy? (Korean videos)
— 03 Mellow is popular with both warm and cool tones. A single swipe gives a soft, delicate look.
VT PDRN Glow Sheet Mask
The jelly sheet sticks closely to your skin and adds moisture and glow at the same time. It’s good for skin that’s gone dull and dry with the change of seasons, and leaves a soft dewy glow when you peel it off. 1,000 won per sheet.
✨ The “1,000-won glow mask” — if you’re buying 10 or more, ordering online is easier.

😱 Sold Out at Daiso? Check Stock on Coupang
VT Reedle Shot and the Son & Park Color Balm are classic sellouts that disappear as soon as they’re restocked. Many people still can’t find them after trying three or four stores.
⚡ Tip for Buying Sold-Out Items
Coupang is a bit pricier than the in-store price (1,000–5,000 won). Still, once you count the transport and time spent on three or four wasted store trips, online can be the better option. Going from store to store with kids in tow, only to find empty shelves, is more tiring than you’d think.
| Product | Why Sold Out? | Check Stock |
|---|---|---|
| VT Reedle Shot Ampoule | Daiso beauty’s undisputed No. 1 sellout — even restock alerts can be too late | Check Stock on Coupang |
| Son & Park Color Balm | Went viral as a “budget Chanel” → sold out nationwide at the same time | Check Stock on Coupang |
| VT PDRN Sheet Mask | The 1,000-won glow mask — online is easier for bulk buys (10+) | Check Stock on Coupang |
※ Daiso in-store prices and Coupang prices may differ. Check the price before you buy.
