Before I went to the Rainbow Country, I read a lot of travel notes and strategies, and found that I wrote more about tourism, accommodation and transportation, and few people specially compiled strategies to write about what to buy in Japan. There are many guidebooks in Japan, so I won't join in the fun. This time I specially wrote a Japanese shopping guide. The principle that Japan is different from many other countries is cheap and good quality. Many brands, even if they are made in Japan, are not necessarily the lowest in the world, but the best quality goods are all made in Japan and only sold to their own countries, from cosmetics to electrical appliances. No matter how big brands deny it, at least the time of listing in Japan is undeniable. I brought two 26-inch suitcases on this trip and bought a 26-inch suitcase in Ginza, Tokyo, before I brought all my luggage back, so my parents who are going to Japan should go into battle lightly.

The following are the problems that should be paid attention to when shopping, and I have compiled some experiences myself:

1. The pharmacies in Osaka are cheaper than those in Tokyo. It's best to purchase in Osaka first, and then replenish in Tokyo.

2. The open-shelf products placed at the entrance of Japanese drugstores are all hot-selling and easy-to-use products, which are different from those in China. You can pay more attention to them.

Almost shopping malls and drugstores are equipped with Chinese shopping guides, so don't worry about language problems. In the absence of China clerk, look directly at the signboard, which says the most popular, the number one sales or the Cosme ranking is generally good.

It is not cost-effective to buy European and American cosmetics in Japan. If you want to buy European and American cosmetics, you can go directly to the airport duty-free shop.

5. The voltage in Japan is 100V, which is different from China's 220V. When buying electrical appliances, you must buy 220V, and it doesn't matter if you buy it wrong. You can buy 100V and equip it with a transformer.

6. White lovers are only available at airport duty-free shops except Hokkaido. You can't find these word-of-mouth gifts in Honshu, Japan. If you want to buy it, just buy it at the airport when you finally leave.

7. Unlike Europe, Japanese airports do not apply for tax refund. You can enjoy the tax refund directly in shopping malls, department stores and pharmacies. You must use your passport when you refund the tax. Be sure to bring your passport when you check out, and don't forget the tax refund!

8. All Nippon Airways is limited to two pieces of luggage per person, each of which is no more than 23kg. My experience is that as long as the suitcase can be lifted with both hands, it will not be overweight.

9. All invoices for duty-free shopping must be kept well, and someone will check them when you finally leave customs. Don't lose him!

10. Consumables, especially cosmetics, are best not to be unpacked and used directly in Japan. If it is found, it will pay 8% consumption tax, so cosmetics should be sealed when buying duty-free goods.

1 1. During business hours, most Japanese department stores and shops close at around 7 pm, so we should pay attention to the reasonable arrangement of itinerary and time.

Come to the family portrait town building:

Travel time is really limited. I suggest you do a good job in advance and list the things you want to buy, saving time and effort. Because I went with my mother this time, the things I bought are basically daily necessities, which are divided into six categories: skin care products, cosmetics, daily necessities, medicines, food and electrical appliances. There are still some things I want to buy, so I won't write them down, just for your reference. If you really don't have the patience to read the whole article, you can directly click on the travel catalogue on the left. I make the classification very detailed, just click on the part of interest to browse. Ps: Brand cosmetics were purchased from Mitsukoshi Department Store in Ginza, Tokyo, with gifts from airport duty-free shops, and others were purchased from major drugstores. I have to say that the pharmacies in neon country are really powerful! Only unexpected, no can't buy. The following is my shopping list:
