It is said a suitable place to get souvenirs such as goods made in Japan, Hokkaido local foods, cosmetics, Japanese alcohols and snacks while you also check current hot seller items sold in Japan. Some supermarkets offer even tax free service which is available for foreign tourists who meet requirements for duty free shopping. If you purchase goods above JPY 5000, please ask shop staff whether you can take advantage of tax free benefit.
