good go now, next year has sayonara tax, not worth visiting anymore

link of books?
i will try but since it's my 1st time i might be getting lost every here and there
and darn MRT system damn confusin!!

is this new book? most book store selling it?  will look for it when i'm in akiba and nakano since i assume it's some manga?

so credit card usage is quite limited?
i assume place who accept credit card is probably ginza, not akiba or shibuya since those operate by small retails

Check out the T&L Japan thread page 1 for more info and some basic phrases that can help you.
Although there's no info on budget but you can calculate it this way:-

Per pax: 40,000yen

The basic you need to pay:
Airport transfer (assuming you're from Haneda >> Shinjuku >> Haneda) @ 1,300yen for the round trip.

Balance: 38,700yen/ 7 days = ~5,500yen per day.

Transport will be dependent on your itinerary but going to Odaiba is easily around 1,000+yen for a round trip because it's out of city.

But in any case, we put aside 1,000yen for transport fee each day.
5,500yen - 1,000yen = 4,500yen (it's still decent).

Breakfast in cafe like Doutor: 400-500yen
Cheap lunch: 500-600yen
Snacks/ coffee: 500yen
Decent (average) dinner: 1,000yen

Per day meal: 2,500yen.
You will have balance of almost 2,000yen for shopping each day. Whatever amount you didn't spend on Day 1 or the day before, can be added to the budget of Day 2 (or next day). So with balance of 2,000 let's say you didn't spend that money at all on Day 1, Day 2 you will have additional 2,000yen to spend.

yahwor why you disappeared from T&L?! just happened to "pass by" coz of 1 of the thread... then saw this loll

Sounds good, congrats in securing the job! Seems like you're enjoying work and life. My side... headache planning for upcoming trip next in May also Tokyo but majority side trip.

Hahahaha i know. I hate crowds so I avoid the sakura season, and it's low season thus accommodation tends to be slightly cheaper as well. Better things at lower cost but from what I hear, right now you can even wear t-shirt and go around. I'm a little worried coz I hate the heat, was hoping it'll still be cold.

Few places like Fuji 5 Lakes, Nikko and Kamakura still can make it for Shibazakura so planning to make a trip there.

Seems like the weather changed a lot due to global warming... going somewhere mid May, so I'm kinda worried. Fuji 5 Lakes I'll be doing 3D2N and Nikko 2D1N huhu. That's why headache the transport, attractions and passes.

yeah, it's either the Fujikyu Pass (10,000yen for 3 days) or Fuji-Hakone 3 Days Pass (8,000yen). But after looking at the price and comparison, I think Fujikyu is more worth it. I'm leaving from Yokohama, so I'll have to pay for the transport from Yokohama to Kawaguchiko, and also pay for the journey from Kawaguchiko to Shinjuku afterwards. That's like 10,000yen + another 4,000 yen any idea if the Fujikyu pass is inclusive of the bus to Shibazakura?

Wokay it's alright, time to ask the T&L kaki hahahaha
