Are you moving to Japan and setting up an apartment, or just looking for inexpensive gifts? The Japanese Hyaku-en (100-yen) shops is your answer.  The quality of the Japanese dollar shops is superb. You can find stationary to kitchenware to snacks at the Hyake-en shops…and all of your gifts for everyone back home!

Preferred Shops

DAISO: you probably can find a few in each prefecture. The largest DAISO shop in Tokyo is located in Harajuku (JR Station) near Meiji Shrine on Takeshita Dori (the famous fashion street in Harajuku, and extremely crowded during the weekend with youngsters!)

Seria: another good-quality dollar shop with everting from gardening items to kitchenware to Japan-related knick-knack.

CanDo: another 100 yen high-quality store, with many products made in Japan!
