Have you been to Electric Mega store in Japan?
These stores stock household appliances such as TVs, PCs and refrigerators as well as cameras or game software in bulk, and sell them at low prices. Some stores deal in watches, toys and brand products. Typical examples are “Yodobashi Camera”, “Bic Camera” and “Yamada Denki”. So competition between these megastores will surely heat up. They offer low cost to compete each other. You can also get ‘points-card’ and reduce 10 to 20 % of the sales price. It is free to make this point card. Most these mega stores have English speaking staff. Lots of electronics are very unique and colorful. They have so many functions you never realized. I myself like to find gadgets. I also like to find decoration for cellphone.
Here is the popular items for foreigners:
1. Rice Cooker – they have so many functions to cook rice! Some of them are over 50,000 yen and lots foreigners buy it spending this much money!
2. Electric Facials – You don’t need to go to beauty salon or spa anymore! There are many brands to care beauty. Skin, hair, nails and so on. Some of them have English user guide
3. Japanese Toilet – Japanese toilet leads the world! They sell separately and you can take them back home!
