We can find a tremendous amount of things online in terms of information and entertainment. One thing that is offered on the internet is a variety of products for you the end user to buy. However, many of us do not believe in online shopping for a multitude of reasons. Some prefer the human touch while others presume a better variety of things in the market. For this purpose I will help you identify some places in Japan where you would be able to buy good quality goods at a reasonable price. More particularly we are talking about cheap stores in Tokyo. Here are some of the 100-yen stores in Tokyo:
Treasure Factory:
Let's talk about a store which is a unique idea in itself. This place is extremely cheap and helps you find hidden treasures that you would find at a more expensive price elsewhere. How do they do this you ask? Well your guess is as good as mine at this stage as it is difficult to tell.
It is difficult to associate this cheap store in Tokyo with any niche because it does not have one. You could get well made handicraft material and also a great deal of furniture from this store.
CouCou Jiyugaoka:
Some of you might be surprised by Jigugaoka in this list because it is an expensive place. So one would think that this would not be one of those 100-yen stores. However, one would be wrong to presume that because it is indeed amongst the cheapest stores in Tokyo.You ask how? Well the answer is simple to cater to those with a more budget friendly clientele, they have CouCou.
When it comes to the variety this place offers you could get stuff for home decor and even wooden made items. Hence, I would suggest you find the budget to go out shopping.
Sofmap:
Located in Akihabara it is a great place to buy second hand electronics. Now there might be other such stores all around Japan that could offer second hand electronics at the price Sofmap is offering but truth be told none are better than Sofmap.They are able to lead the way in being the most honest store in the whole of Tokyo when it comes to second hand material. You will not be conned into buying something second hand with a defect at this place. Rather you would be told of the status of the appliance you are buying upfront.
Gyomu Supermarket:
How could I have gone through the whole list without mentioning even a single supermarket. So let's talk about this one and why it is special. Simply put, this store is among some of the cheapest stores in Tokyo. Gyomu is a true blue 100-yen store in Tokyo, the heart of Japan.
Traditionally, they are accustomed to selling goods in bulk, or a large quantity at once and this is what allows their individual item to be extremely low. Hence, when you want to buy fruit, vegetables and meat for a lower price make sure that you visit this supermarket.
Jumble Store:
The odds are if you prefer a good bargain you already know of the Jumble Store. Unlike others in the list this store deals in the selling of branded items. However, to keep the prices on the lower side, they sell mostly second hand versions of these items. Hence, you would be able to get the original thing without any defect for sometimes less than half the price of the original. The store makes sure that the quality of the product is not compromised before putting it on display. Therefore, you are able to get good value for your money.
