    Discount Shops / Groceries: 100 yen stores, 7-11`s, am/pm

    Check out the 100 yen stores. At the larger ones you can get many useful items including food and clothes that are very cheap

    7-11`s and Am/Pm`s are very convenient for cheap food and daily items

    Its possible to live one day in Japan on less than 1000 yen a day without suffering too much

    Accomodation is then another 2000 if you stay in a guesthouse

    The weekends will be a little more if you are going to go out to a club or restaurant then you are going to need at least 4 or 5000 yen for the evening, less than that is possible but you are going to feel a little stressed!

    Discount Shops / Groceries: Great place to pick up your souvenirs

    When I'm in the Ueno (Ameyokocho) area, I always stop at Niki no Kashi (Niki's Snacks). They are a discount snack and food store where you can buy stuff in bulk. Hence it's a great one place stop for your edible souvenir needs. They sell the same cakes & cookies that you see at train stations plus candy, gum, toy-containing candy for kids, etc. There are two shops across from each other. One has mostly snacks and the other has grocery items. Check out both.

    I usually pick up things like that gum that smells like perfume or KissMint gum. Or Ultraman, Sanrio or other character candy with little toys in it. Plus anything with funny English on it. It's also great for those gross out items -- squid on a stick, etc. You can buy snacks to eat while you're in Japan as well. Of course they have Pocky, Pretz and things like that too.

    Cheaper than retail.
