Bargain hunting in Tokyo is super easy. Many of the city’s fashion boutiques are located in huge fashion malls. Dozens, sometimes hundreds, of top fashion boutiques in a single building.

Additionally, many of these buildings are located quite close to each other. So when the bargain season opens and one building after the other starts their bargain sale campaign, you just walk from one building to the next. And on the way, you can check out the sales of boutiques that have selected not to locate themselves in a mall.

Even better, the discounts can be huge. It is not rare to find items at 50%, and even 70% off the regular price.

If you’re not in Tokyo this month, don’t let it get you down. Start planning a trip for next year July! ^_-
