Liz Lisa made an initial announcement about 2018 fukubukuro on Nov 17 but didn't offer any specific details at that time. Interested customers were encouraged to follow Liz Lisa on social media to find out more!

On Nov 22 (Twitter, TKL email, official website), Liz Lisa announced that they're offering 2 different fukubukuro options this year! Information released at that time were the fukubukuro descriptions/categories, pricing and a single photo showing the bag and coat modeled by one of the LL Siennes. The TKL preorder release date was also announced as being about 1.5 weeks away.

On Nov 29 (TKL email), the TKL listings for the pre-order were set up on the webstore (as coming soon for the Dec 1 release). Sample content photos were also revealed at the same time. (See images below)

Both fukubukuro will be released for pre-order through Tokyo Kawaii Life (Liz Lisa's official online webstore) on December 1 at 19:00 Japan time.
If you're unfamiliar with the time zone, it's just a simple google search away to figure out how to convert Japan time to *insert-your-time-zone-here*. If you don't want to miss out on a Liz Lisa lucky pack this year, be sure to have your account set up and all your information ready for the pre-order release!
TKL does not ship directly to international customers, so you'll need a forwarding or shopping service to help you get this item if you aren't located in Japan. If you need some extra help ordering from Tokyo Kawaii Life or are unfamiliar with ordering from Japanese webstores that don't ship internationally, consider checking out my "How to order from Liz Lisa and Tokyo Kawaii Life" blog post. (It needs some updates for the most recent check out process but the set up is majority the same!)

UPDATE - According to the Liz Lisa official Facebook page (Nov 29 post), the official Liz Lisa eBay store will also be doing a pre-order for the fukubukuro to be released on December 1 at 19:00 Japan time. 

Please also remember that I don't have any extraordinary knowledge about lucky pack contents. What I've written here that isn't explicitly stated by TKL/Liz Lisa in the listings is pure speculation and just based on what information I've gathered from previous years. However, there's never any guarantee that what's happened in the past is necessarily what will occur this year!
