Reasonable travel to 100yen shops!

Hello , I'm chacky.
Today, it's 35 degrees C outside in Japan.

Today I will give you a precious information about 100yen shops!

Budget-travelers should check it!!!

100yen shops are so popular among all walks of life.
We cannot live without them

100 Yen Shops (Japanese: hyaku en shop) sell a wide range of products for 105yen per item
(100 Yen plus 5 percent consumption tax). This corresponds to roughly one US dollar per item.

There are thousands of 100 Yen Shops across Japan, ranging in size from multi-storey "department stores" to small corners in shopping malls.

By purchasing products in huge quantities and at big discounts from countries with low production and labor costs, 100 Yen Shops are able to offer an amazing range of products at a price that is often below the product's actual value.

Below is a selection of products typically found at 100 Yen Shops:

1、Tableware
Plates, rice and miso soup bowls, tea cups, sake sets, forks, etc.
2、Kitchenware
Kitchen knives, dippers, microwave containers, coffee filters, detergent, aluminum foil, etc.


3、Tools
Hammers, measuring tapes, pliers, screwdriver sets, cutter knives, etc.

4、Gardenware
Watering pots, mini rakes, containers, etc.


5、Stationary
Boxes, report pads, memo pads, pens, pins, calligraphy brushes, etc.

6、Household Goods
Sewing threads, towels, socks, slippers, etc.

7、Leisure Goods
Ping pong sets, swimming goggles, English-Japanese dictionaries, etc.

You should take enough time looking for your good souvenirs!
