just a quick example

¥24,000 = $305.xx

just bought some tires and that was the conversion...
a month ago i pulled some money out and it was ¥10,000 - $110, so you see how it's getting worse for the $.

factor in using any plastic or a bad spot to exchange USD too YEN = subtract 8-15points more from the interbank rates.


Heard those stories when breakfast in japan was about $60usd and can of Pepsi/Coke were $3usd. yup they are back.

but just a quick visit to lawsons in the morning for a couple of items can be had for wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy less.
