The "kitchen" in the name gives away the focus of this ¥100 chain. Why shop here and not at a big chain like Daiso? The quality of the goods! Here you can find nice wooden spoons and bowls, as well as well-made ceramic dishes. Do be careful, though, as some larger items are ¥300—but well worth it! You can find branches in Sapporo, Sendai, Nagoya, Hiroshima and Fukuoka, as well as in various locations around Kanto and Kansai.

Lawson Store 100 is a variant of the Lawson convenience store chain that focuses on ¥100 goods and cooking ingredients. The products on offer are actually fresh and of decent quality—to keep prices low, they're just sold in small, one- to two-person portions. Great in a pinch after the grocery store closes!

1. Daikoku Drug
Discount drug store Daikoku Drug has a ¥100 section in many of its shops—and that price includes tax! However, be aware that part of the shop is also a regular drug store, and while prices are cheap, they won't adhere to the ¥100 label.
