what other supermarkets have similar prices to this one in Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka/Nagano? Is this the only supermarket in Tokyo with these prices? or is it every OK store in Tokyo? Is there any other supermarket companies you recommend?
Thank you very much for sharing Asakusa area as well as taking your time comparing prices for your viewers! Deeply appreciative! Have a great weekend! Blessings!
I didn't visit Asakusa when I was in Tokyo weeks ago, because Asakusa is pretty touristic. However, this supermarket sounds great to stock up drinks and snacks before leaving for a day trip out of Tokyo. Thank you for this video.
I'll definitely give it a try when I visit Japan at the end of this year. I am almost jealous about the amount of different convenience foods at super affordable prices. In my country you couldn't buy the "Katsu" by itself for that price, let alone in that quality. Also great that you guys show also show the more local options for tourists 👍.
Thank you very much for taking your time for price comparison!! And also showing your viewers about supermarkets in tokyo, your tips are always THE BEST for us tourists!! Thank you very very much, hope your channel continues to grow 🙏🙏🎉
Yes we were at ok supermarket in April very good prices!!!! 👍🏻😊 Love kaki no tane kameda company is best quality!!!! I like the wasabi 🧑🏻🎤 And nice ice TIP!!! 😉
Thank you, Junjiro and Akanemaru! Your channel is very helpful and informative to those who want to visit Japan. I watch all of your videos and advertisements as a way to support your channel. Thanks again!
Thank you for watching the video! Your comment brings me so much joy! I will continue to create even better videos for you in the future! Look forward to the next video too!!
@@samurai_junjiro my daughter and I will be in Tokyo next month. Because of your channel, we learned a lot and we have been able to prepare our itinerary. We will visit most of the places you recommend in your videos. Best of luck in your channel and we will continue to support you! Arigatou!
@@memecarreon3392 If you go to any of the places we introduced, it would be nice if you could comment on where you went! Hoping you have a great time making wonderful memories on your trip to Japan😆
2:54 WHOA 😳 those are even cheaper than at Haneda/Narita airport. Wow! I am STILL planning my Tokyo Holiday, which starts estimated 19th of October, this year. I didn't even knew OK Asakusa existed when I was last time in Tokyo, granted, it was in 2018 or so, it was not open yet then. THANK YOU THANK YOU 🙏 for these tips! You are a great help for my October Planning.
Thank you for watching the video! If you want to try various types of Kit Kat, we also recommend a place called Niki-no-kashi in Ueno. It's not as cheap as OK, but they have unique varieties that you won't find in other stores. We introduce it in this video! th-cam.com/video/3QEzFiIYNJw/w-d-xo.html
I might not get a chance to stop by there but it's good to know there are plenty of food options at the supermarket if you're on a budget. Thanks again!
@@samurai_junjiro You're right, please make videos on other supermarkets you recommend and their limited special products like the ice cream and karaage!
Thank you for sharing. This is very informative and useful since I will be going to Japan and my stay is right in Asakusa next month I was wondering if you are aware if Costco has the same snacks and if the price are competitive. I am only planning to buy snacks in Japan to take home for souvenirs and for myself. Thanks.
This supermarket is in a not-so-obvious place, so many tourists who don't know about it often miss it. We hope this video will help you on your trip to Japan!
Thank you for sharing, I am planning my visit soon, may I ask when you do the price comparison earlier on this video is for non members or members pricing? If its not for member, would the price be very competitive to the rest ? And is membership only for the locals?
Becoming a member will get you a 3% discount. A Japanese address is required for registration. Please note that the discount is only applicable for cash payments. Even if you don't become a member, it's still quite a good deal since it's already affordable :)
Thank you for your useful video, we are visiting tokyo next month and staying in asakusa, so we will stop by this supermarket. Does this supermarket accept passmo card? We are considering about getting either passmo or suica 🤔
Thank you for watchiing our video! There probably wasn't a microwave there, so eating at the hotel would be a good idea. By the way, around noon, freshly made bento boxes are displayed, so they're still warm :)
I'm not sure about the packaging, but as long as you have your passport, you'll be fine. The price applies if you purchase items totaling over 5,000 yen before tax.
Thanks for watching the video! It costs 200 yen to become a member. You'll also need to have a Japanese address. The price difference between members and non-members is around 3%.
This is the non-member price. Issuing a membership card costs 200 yen ($1.37). If you're a member, you'll get a 3% discount off the regular price, but this only applies to cash payments.
You need to go to the service counter, but a Japanese address is required for registration. Even if you don't become a member, it's still quite a good deal since it's already affordable :)

Thank you! Helena san :) I think this supermarket is affordable (super cheap) even for Japanese people, so it's a really great store!
Damn...didn't even know that OK existed, ended up doing all my grocery shopping at Seyu.
Hello! Joe :) If you come to Asakusa again, please go there!
@@samurai_junjiro I'm going, thank you, nice video.
I love learning about the better value, local spots even in busy areas like Asakusa.
Thank you for taking the time to cover these topics and places!
In the city center, supermarkets like this are rare, so even for Japanese people, these prices are surprising!

Markets are better than conbini, but convenience has a price. Liked the market. Food looks very good. Thank you enjoyed.
The store's effort to offer it cheaply is great!
This video came at such a great time! 😆 I’m about to visit this area soon hahaha, thanks for the food tips!
That's good! Definitely give it a try! ^^

During my trip to Japan, I want to buy and eat a lot of delicious food at the supermarket in Tokyo 🤤🤤
There are many cheap and delicious foods in Japanese supermarkets!
Thank you for the good narrating. ❤
This is really interesting video, never seen this type of content before!
Glad to hear that!! Thank you!
some of these packages can be found in Los Angeles in japanese markets, but with a massive 3x-4x mark up! Onigiri cost 5x more in the US!
Wow! Even in Japan, convenience store onigiri are generally around 150 yen ($1.02), so I'm surprised at how affordable this supermarket is!
😋😋😋 Thank you for sharing this video. ❤️ ❤🌸
Thank you for watching our video!
WOW...Thanks for this Video...we will visit this on our trip this year...
If you're planning to visit Asakusa, you should go there! ^^

It's also a good idea to use the supermarket to buy breakfast and souvenirs!
@@samurai_junjiro You're right, please make videos on other supermarkets you recommend and their limited special products like the ice cream and karaage!
I miss those 7/11 onigiris with different fillings 😋

Wow great prices! Is this one of the most affordable supermarkets?
Thank you for watching the video! Yes, as far as I know :) They have over 100 stores mainly located in Tokyo.
you can find f free vegetable on park ... same kind of plant that growfreely in geen area are really good.
I love your pronounciation of "year" :-) Practice saying "yen" and it should be pretty easy to say "year."
Thank you for sharing, I am planning my visit soon, may I ask when you do the price comparison earlier on this video is for non members or members pricing? If its not for member, would the price be very competitive to the rest ? And is membership only for the locals?

Thank you for your useful video, we are visiting tokyo next month and staying in asakusa, so we will stop by this supermarket. Does this supermarket accept passmo card? We are considering about getting either passmo or suica 🤔
Thank you for watching our video! You can also use PASMO. Most places that accept Suica also accept PASMO :)
Thank you for tips! i just wondering is they available a TAX free for tourist? thank you
Yes, there is a tax-free service available. It applies to purchases of 5,000 yen or more. And a passport is required :)
Pistachio from Sicily...
Doubt 👀
Thanks for watching the video!
Do they drop the prices at night specifically from the bento corner?
Thank you for watching the video! If there's leftover bento at night, sometimes a sticker with a few percent discount might be applied.
if i ever visit japan. I guess i'll never leave the grocery store because restaurants are too expensive. LOLs
We recommend bento boxes from Japanese supermarkets and convenience stores as they are delicious!
do they have a branch in Ueno too? I shopped at a very cheap super market there, cant remember the name...
Thank you for watching the video! This shop isn't in Ueno. Is Takeya the cheap and famous option in Ueno, I suppose?
Did they have a vareity of pre-made salads with lettuce?
They were also selling a few types of salads :)
Is there a microwave in OK? I think there is none at our hotel in Hop Inn Asakusa.
Yes, there was a microwave :)
Great video, would you say that living just on Supermarket food could be realistic in Japan, or would it present some risks ?
Thank you! Food in Japanese supermarkets is cheap, so it's very convenient :)
Hi Thanks for sharing, we will stay in Asakusa in October! Is it Tax Free for tourists? 🙂
Yes, they offer tax-free services. For that, a passport is required. Additionally, payment needs to be made in cash, not with a credit card :)
Thank you! I appreciate you sharing what's offered in local supermarket! Do you know if there's microwave at the store to heat up some of the food?
Thank you for watchiing our video! There probably wasn't a microwave there, so eating at the hotel would be a good idea. By the way, around noon, freshly made bento boxes are displayed, so they're still warm :)
@@samurai_junjiro Good tips! Thanks. I'm curious where do the local shop for affordable clothing?
@@iheartarashi We always buy clothes at UNIQLO and GU😅

Hi, when u re mentioning a credit card for payment. It is a local or International credit cards?
You can use VISA or AMEX :)
Is OK tax- free also for tourists like Don Quijote?
Thanks for watching the video! This shop offers tax-free services, similar to Don Quijote.
@@samurai_junjiro Thank you for the info! I always watch your videos. They are very informative 😊
thank you for sharing, btw what is the different between 272 yen and 293 yen in the price tag?
Thank you for watching our video! It's the price including tax and the price excluding tax :)
@@samurai_junjiro thank you for answer, i'll visit japan next month 😆
Hello. What is their rule for tax free?
Do they also pack it same as donki?
Thank you.
I'm not sure about the packaging, but as long as you have your passport, you'll be fine. The price applies if you purchase items totaling over 5,000 yen before tax.
Does the supermarket have microwave ovens for the bento meals?
Yes, I think there was a microwave near the register :)
Tamade in Osaka is still much cheaper I guess?
I heard Tamade for the first time :)
why didn’t i see this when i went to tokyo last august 😔
If you come to Japan again, you should go there😊
@@samurai_junjiro i will save this video! will go again next year winter
Is there sushi as well?
Yes, you can also buy sushi :)
Do they accept only credit card or they also accept forex card and debit card?
Credit cards can be used :)
Hello, how do I become a member of OK Market?
Thanks for watching the video! It costs 200 yen to become a member. You'll also need to have a Japanese address. The price difference between members and non-members is around 3%.
@@samurai_junjiro Thank you so much for the Response!. 😊
so for the foods that you feature is it Ok store member prices or non members? and is it free membership or no?
This is the non-member price.
Issuing a membership card costs 200 yen ($1.37). If you're a member, you'll get a 3% discount off the regular price, but this only applies to cash payments.
@@samurai_junjiro awesome. thank you!
How to walk there from asakusa tobu hotel?
I haven't actually walked, but according to Google Maps it's about an 11 minute walk :)
@@samurai_junjiro can I ask a question?in Shibuya station itself r all the train lines together in the station
Does it have tax free counter for foreigners? 😊
I think there might be a tax-free register, but please ask one of the staff members. By the way, you'll need your passport :)
how to be a member of OK ?
You need to go to the service counter, but a Japanese address is required for registration. Even if you don't become a member, it's still quite a good deal since it's already affordable :)
