Tokyo (Thread 4)

[khriseeee]

^Really?? I always thought Japan was expensive! Though I was considering checking out the uniqlo stores there. Mmm may need to reconsider then!

[vhanya]

Before yes, now hindi na. it's because of the strong peso. Happy shopping!

We bought yen na for our trip next week. .36 lang bili namin last feb .37 bili namin

[minnie99]

.37 two weeks ago sa HSBC. Huhu.

Yeah, I'm amazed, mura ang Uniqlo and Kpalette. AND. ROYCE sa airport! I regret I did not buy much. KitKat matcha cheapest that I got is 298 in Akihabara. Couldn't find anywhere else na mura. 400 sa Mt. Fuji visitor center. Lol.

It's true na masarap magshopping sa tokyo! I had 2 large luggages and yung 1 luggage napuno ko ng puro pasalubong lang. Happiness! Super yummy din ng food and not so expensive.  Ang dami din mapapAsyalan kulang yung 7 days namin dun last april. Can't wait to go back to tokyo! 

[shygirlme]

^^where in Akihabara sis? Dyan kami magstay. True sa royce ngayon maghohoard na ko!

[glamorous_aisha]

sis khrisee mura magshopping sa tokyo ng medyo kilalang mga brands dahil kapag sale, sale talaga. parang hong kong. bili ka na ng tickets for studio ghibli through a travel agency. dapat a month before kasi purchase. ang tagal ko na gusto pumunta dun hindi sumasakto sa schedule ko. hirap kumuha ng ticket.

less touristy stuff siguro go around interesting neighborhoods na lang like shimo-kitazawa, koenji, nakano area, jiyugaoka. or go to yokohama area as well.

Hi! May nakapunta na ba dito sa Edo Wonderland? Worth it ba?

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ i enjoyed Edo Wonderland, aliw yung mga shows and exhibits. Pwede din mag-rent ng kimono/yukata. Sinabay namin when we went to Nikko. Morning sa Nikko, hapon sa Edo.

@shygirlme, sis, I don't recall the name of the store... But it's near the JR station. If you exit away from the Gundam Cafe, turn right, and the store should be somewhere on the left. I think it's a multi-level Otaku store (that's what caught my attention, yung anime stuff LOL). The KitKats are in the first level, to the left.

Anyone purchased online tickets to Tokyo Disneyland? Nagtry kami magbook ng husband ko kasi ayaw eh. Hindi yata pwede?

[glamorous_aisha]

^sis i don't think you book online for disney resorts. kung ayaw niyo pumila the day na pupunta kayo pwede yata kayo bumili sa mga convenience stores.

[shygirlme]

^thanks sis wala nga daw. Buy nalang kami sa disney store sa shibuya

[Lheenjai]

mura lang kitkat sa donki at Matsumoto Kiyoshi tsaka dito 5000 yen lang makakaavail na  tax free yung iba kasi 10k minimum

[glamorous_aisha]
