Hey, everyone. Are you a shopaholic type of person? Well, today’s sentence suits you.” How much is this? Is asked in buying at any shops. No worries if you don’t know how to say this in NIHONGO version while doing shopping in Japan because all merchandises normally have price tags. Even without asking, you can buy with no hesitation.
But if you really want to learn Nihongo for How much? It’s ” IKURA DESUKA” by pointing the merchandise with your finger.
Typically, all shops don’t accept for price bid because there is already a tag on the items. In short, it is fixed. It’s for you to decide whether you should buy or not after seeing the tags.
Tips for thrifty travelers:
About some groceries, if you want to buy for a more reasonable one, I recommend going before closing because some side dishes are putting on discounts from 10% off, 20% off or more.


If you want to save your travel budget, you might eat your dinner in your hotel room. You should go out to buy some side dishes at the groceries. There are many kinds of shopping stores to find with reasonable price and with good taste. You can also include traditional foods on list. It’s not only to save money, but you would also experience Japan high quality even though in discounted side dishes. Don’t forget to take a cutlery at the cashier after paying.
