I cannot lie, since ITZY entered the scene, I have been a bit obsessed. They have so much charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent that oozes out of their pores. It makes them irresistible. So, when it was announced that they would be coming out with the ITZY IT’z Me 1st Mini Album, I needed to get a copy. Also, per usual, I have to share it with you all.
I do also post reactions over on my YouTube Channel. I have also posted one for ITZY Wannabe, which you can watch below:
Since this post is actually an unboxing of the album, let’s actually talk about that. I picked up my copy of this album Music Plaza LA. You can get a copy using this link for $18.99, plus shipping. Additionally, if you have never used Music Plaza before, this link will get you an extra 5% off of your first purchase!
You can also order a copy of the album from an eBay, as they typically have good prices. This link here will get you a copy for $23.99, plus free shipping. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the Rakuten extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
What is Rakuten?
Rakuten is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Rakuten, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over 80$ back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used Rakuten before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using Rakuten. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Ulta typically has 3%. These are just some of the companies on the website, but there are other major retailers are on there as well!
Can I get it on Amazon?
Yes! You can pick up a copy using this link for about 25 dollars (not as good of a deal), with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can get a 30-day free trial using this link here. I will not lie, the free 2-day shipping, plus all of the free music and videos are totally worth it. I also now use it for books for my Kindle Paper White too, and it is honestly a lifesaver. They have a program called Kindle Unlimited where you can check out 10 books at a time, read them, and put them back in the Kindle library. The program costs $7.99 a month, and you get the first 30 days for free with this link.

I must say, ITZY’s mini-album slayed. I’m obsessed with every single track on the album, and the physical album is no exception. The photos in it are absolutely beautiful and fierce. The photo cards and the pre-order benefits add the personality. Plus, the cover postcard was an awesome surprise that I wasn’t expecting when taking the album apart.
So should you get yourself a copy of this album? I definitely think this mini-album is worth it. It is one of my favorite albums to listen to while driving, and the photo book just shows so much feminine power and strength, echoing the music. That being said, I know albums are expensive, so if you cannot afford it, which I know is always possible, I do highly recommend that you stream it. It gives the girls the royalties, and you can jam out to some great music.
What track on ITZY’s mini-album is your favorite, K-Nuggets? Let me know in the comments below!
