How can I save money on souvenirs?

Save on Japanese Souvenirs

Many people will want you to bring them a Japanese souvenir. If you buy them in the traditional tourist areas, you'll quickly deplete your spending money. 100 yen stores (similar to a Dollar Store) offer a great alternative for buying your Japanese souvenirs. There, you'll find many of the things that people traditionally associate with Japan—fancy chopsticks, fans, even Hello Kitty goods—all for only 100 yen. You can buy many Japanese souvenirs there and nobody has to know how much they cost.
