How to save money in Tokyo

You may not believe it.

The blogger actually bought it in Tokyo.

50 yuan doesn't go to Topshop.

Dior for less than 500 dollars.

There is less than 1000 YSL.

But it's all true.

After reading this strategy

You can do it too.

Part 1

"The medieval shops I must visit"

The so-called antique shop

This shop specializes in sales.

Baby with a history of more than ten years, classic design and market value.

in Japan

The definitions of retro and secondhand are not so obvious.

Some styles are only a few years old.

It will also be sold as "ancient"

But the second-hand market in Japan is very systematic.

So don't worry about buying fakes in these stores.

Other raiders recommend many second-hand shops in Daiguo Valley.

It is said that it is super hard to stroll inside.

There are many places.

I won't introduce it separately.

Therefore, in this guide, we have selected some antique/second-hand shops that are easy to visit.

People with the lowest social status

Ragtag belongs to a famous second-hand chain store in Japan.

Many places have branches.

Because all sales are second-hand.

So every store has different things.

Official website: www.ragtag.jp

The blogger went to two places.

This one on Mount Omotesando Hills is the largest.

There are three floors in all.

Women's wear on the first floor, men's wear on the second floor and luxury goods on the third floor.

Basically, they are classified by brand, which is very easy to find.

Big names like fendi Chloe

Japan has both trendy brands and local brands.

Most of the prices are below 50% discount.

A Phillip Lim coat of 3. 1, 1000 yuan can be bought.

Regret not buying it!

I bought these:

traffic route

6- 14-2 in front of Shibuya Shrine in Tokyo

Ginza line subway station, after exit A2.

It's in the Apple Store on the right. Go straight ahead.

Go to the place where there is an overpass and cross the road.

Go in by the path next to Cox's store in Delvaux.

You can see it in about 3 minutes.

Bloggers also went to rt in Ginza.

This is a high-end brand owned by the mob.

More luxury brands such as Chanel LV Gucci

Suitable for people with high brand requirements.

The blogger found a Dior cowboy pocket.

It's only over 300 RMB!

traffic route

Ginza subway station, diagonally opposite Maxmara.

Komehyo

Many large second-hand shops introduced in the raiders.

diversification

From perfume to jewelry, from Furla to Fendi.

Chanel and Hermes are so many!

A limited edition antique edition is available.

You don't have to fight SA anymore.

No longer have to buy a bunch of cups and plates just to buy a bag.

traffic route

Shinjuku Sandingmu subway station, as soon as E3 comes out.

Opposite is the famous Shinjuku Isetan Department Store.

You can come over.

Qoo retro

The online celebrity store is in Tokyo Medieval Store.

Mysterious Places of Japanese Stars in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan

Unlike others,

Only wine is sold here.

That is to say, everything in the store has a history of more than ten years.

You will see many special styles.

Qoo has the most complete Chanel

From bags to brooches, from earrings to clothes.

This is a paradise for Chanel fans.

Besides accessories and clothes, there are many good treasures.

The blogger bought a super retro suit.

Add up to no more than 500 yuan RMB.

And this pair of YSL sunglasses

It is still the most popular color lens model.

A little over 600 was accepted by me.

traffic route

4-3- 15 in front of Shibuya Shrine in Tokyo

Subway station, exit A2, and the Apple Store is on the right.

Go ahead for about 1 minute and get on the path next to Mike Goldstein.

The building next to the yellow hut

Take the elevator to room 5 15.

Just ring the doorbell.

2 nd steet

It used to be called the old grocery store, but now it's renamed.

Here are the main cheap clothes.

First floor women's dress second floor men's wear

There are many local brands in Japan.

You can find a good baby by scouring with your heart.

The blogger bought a Topshop here in 45 yuan.

Fred Perry bid $65,438,000.

Pick up a pair of jeans. Yes 100.

traffic route

4-26-4 inches

Go straight along this road and you will see it.

There are many small shops along the road.

design

Weeding shop

Stores I've seen in other strategies

It took a long time to find it.

It feels like a buyer's shop, not an antique shop.

There are not many styles and the price is expensive.

Not recommended

There is no need to go, because time is running out.

Matters needing attention

Remember to take your passport with you when you go shopping.

Most second-hand/middle-aged shops can be directly tax-free.

You don't have to go to the airport for tax refund.

This is much more convenient than Korea.

All the above stores can use UnionPay cards.

If you can't find your way.

You can find it by entering the store name in the map that comes with the iPhone.

Suggested route:

Omotesando Hills Mountain: Qoo Retro-Mob-Second Street

(Business hours are also arranged from morning till night)

Business?Hours?

The lesson of tears: be sure to see the business hours clearly!

The blogger came for the first time after eight o'clock in the evening, so he was turned away.

Shops in Tokyo usually close early.

Most shops near Mount Omotesando Hills are closed on 19.

So is the mall.

So how should Tokyo people spend their nightlife?

the second part

"online celebrity shop that has to eat"

Because bloggers work every day.

Basically, there are not many food shops that you can go to, but they are all good.

Give you three special recommendations.

Blue Lamian Noodles

Be sure to go ah ah ah ah!

It's totally different from Hong Kong!

I can't stop eating Lamian Noodles!

Because this is a chain store.

You can choose a store according to your area.

I ate it twice, both at Shanshan store in Omotesando Hills.

You can come here to fill your stomach after visiting the antique shop just recommended.

There is a meal ticket vending machine at the door.

Classic preserved eggs with laba noodles 10 10 yen.

You can choose to add ingredients such as onions and meat.

Tea almond tofu is also a must.

Have a cool dessert after a hot meal with spicy noodles.

Perfect match!

The layout of the store is also very interesting.

It's like an internet cafe apart.

All the waiters are hiding behind the curtains and can't see clearly.

After sitting down, you need to choose your own taste.

For example, the concentration of soup, the taste and the elasticity of noodles.

If it's a Japanese list for you

You can go to the public comment in the public comment.

There is a Chinese comparison picture (great netizen power! )

traffic route

Subway meiji jingu front station

Rice with Grilled Eel

It is said to be the best eel rice in Shinjuku.

There are three ways to eat a set meal.

The first is the normal way to eat.

The second is to mix onions, seaweed, mustard and so on. Eat in eel rice.

Step three, pour the raw materials and tea leaves into a small bowl.

Mix mustard, seaweed and other side dishes

Turn eel rice into soup rice.

You can try all three methods.

Just choose the size.

Bloggers who usually don't eat much order the smallest portion.

More than 200 RMB.

This means there is too much rice to eat.

traffic route

Map Shinjuku Sandingmu Station Exit E8

Takashimaya Times Square1Building 4

Midori

This is recommended by my friend.

It is said that tuna is the best choice for Japan.

Not salmon (Norway is rich in salmon)

This shop is famous for tuna.

Only when I arrived did I find that the long queue turned out to be an online celebrity shop!

We ordered tuna and super-long eel sushi:

Then ignore the repeated persuasion of the clerk.

I ordered this huge sushi roll.

It's only half here.

Two people ate more than 600, which was super full.

It is worth mentioning that

Japanese people eat sushi and don't deserve a personal bowl.

The table is still clean after dinner.

In case the sushi hasn't arrived in your mouth yet.

If it falls on the table.

I can only look embarrassed.

traffic route

The symbolic city of Shibuya subway station,

East-West Building, 4th floor intersection.

If you take the JR line, it's Shibuya Station.

But it is not in the same place as Shibuya Station on other lines.

So let's navigate.

the third part

"hakone-machi hot springs that must be soaked"

If you don't go to other cities

You can consider going shopping in Tokyo.

Set aside three days and two nights.

Go to hakone-CHO

Hakone-machi is a small city, 2 hours away from Tokyo1-.

Many people in Tokyo will choose to spend their holidays on weekends.

It's "two bunks a night"

Stay in one place for one night and return the next day.

The feeling of the city is very different from that of Tokyo.

Hakone-machi is more peaceful

Experience local culture and hot springs.

Mount Fuji can also be seen in some areas.

You can pay attention when booking a hotel.

Almost every hotel in hakone-machi has hot springs.

And because more and more people are coming.

The room is tight. It is recommended to book in advance.

Because the blogger's reservation this time is a bit oolong and temporary.

Didn't go to the ideal hotel.

Went to this Okada hotel (2500 RMB per night)

Decoration is not

It's just that the check-out time is too early (10 am)

There is a waterfall nearby.

Walking is very comfortable.

traffic route

1.jrtokaido-hakone-machi mountaineering railway

Route 1: Tokyo Station-Eryu, Jr Tokai Yangshan Shinkansen (about 37 minutes)-Odahara-Hakone-machi Mountaineering Railway (about 13 minutes)-Hakone-machi Youben.

Ticket price: 3940 yen for one way.

Route 2: Tokyo -JR Tokaido Line (about 1 hour, 19 minutes)-Odahara-Hakone-machi mountaineering railway (about 13 minutes)-Hakone-machi tomomoto.

Ticket price: one way 1750 yen.

2. Oda Express is "romantic"

Oda Express is a high-speed direct train from Shinjuku, Tokyo to Hakone-machi and nearby attractions.

1) route/time: shinjuku-hakone-machi, about 85 minutes.

Ticket price: 2080 yen

There is a machine consultation transfer plan and price outside JR Yamanote Line.

Enter your origin and destination.

I printed a note and sat there.

After arriving at Tomben station, cross the overpass and go downstairs.

There is a clearing next to the taxi stand.

Where there are ice cream cones, they go to the hotel.

There are three different ABC routes, each of which costs 100 yen.

Remember to tell the driver when you get on the bus that the hotel you are going to will stop!

You can also consider buying packages for all the attractions in Hakone-machi at Odawara Station.

About 4,000 yen/adult in 5 hours.

Book on the day of arrival in Hakone-machi.

Matters needing attention

About hot springs

Hot springs in Japan are all separate for men and women.

You must take off your clothes and soak in the hot spring. You can only bring one towel at most.

So you can't take pictures and send friends.

Before entering the hot spring, you need to wash your whole body.

in addition

Some hot springs don't allow people with tattoos to enter.

About the hotel

Although it seems that the Japanese are very polite

But in fact, many rules and regulations are zero tolerance.

For example, the check-out time is set to 1 1 am.

Late arrival 15 minutes requires extra room charge.

So be sure to understand the relevant regulations.

In order to avoid unnecessary expenses.

part four

"useful assistant"

Mobile wireless network

Book in advance on Taobao.

You can choose to pick it up at the domestic airport or mail it home.

Prices range from 9 yuan/day to 15 yuan/day.

App application

The subway in Japan is very complicated.

Different routes are also displayed on different maps.

Looking at the line makes you tired.

With these two apps, I am basically not afraid.

Japanese subway

This app can enter the starting station and destination station.

According to the real-time situation, the best transfer scheme is calculated.

Suitable for daily travel in ordinary cities.

But many other rail transit lines are not covered.

Japan road map

This application has the most complete rows.

Basically cover all rail transit.

But there is no transfer plan.

Dianping

Go hungry to find food.

Public comments are still very convenient.

About traffic

Be sure to buy a watermelon card!

Just like our "Yangchengtong" and "shenzhen tong"

Can be used in all public transport and convenience stores.

The deposit of 500 yen can be recharged by yourself.

Because Tokyo needs to calculate its own fare by subway.

Before calculating the fare, you must look at the road map.

This difficulty is still relatively difficult in Bioli's peak mathematics.

So buying a card can save a lot of brain cells.

In addition to buying in Taobao in advance,

In Japan, you can also buy it at the black vending machine outside the subway station.

It is more troublesome to return the card. You must go to the JR line station to refund the deposit.

There is no place to return the card at the airport!

Remember!

About language

Because there are many Chinese characters.

Know a little basic English and guess the meaning of Chinese characters.

Free travel is no problem

Many young people have a high level of English.

There is basically no problem except that I am tired of watching subway maps.
