    Were you in trouble while traveling in Japan? If so, share your experience for tourists planning to come to 🇯🇵

      There are some useful phrases when paying for things. For example:
      1. When using a credit card, they'll ask how many charges to divide the total amount into (I think). This isn't a concept in north america.
      2. Most countries have credit cards with chips but I think most cards in the US still don't have those so what happens then.
      3. What happens if my credit card pin fails.
      4. What if they only accept cash.
      5. Are there common phrases dealing with sales tax and getting a refund for tourists?
      I'm sure there are more scenarios dealing with this situation.

    This is so useful, ive been going around in convenience stores in japan for 5 months and paying without a word, one time they were asking the "fukuro owake shimasuka?" And shook my head no without a word and carried 7 bags of chips with my bare hands 💀💀💀💀

    I've been in Japan this year. First time visit. For anyone interested in going to Japan, I highly recommend a big emphasis on learning convenience store Japanese. Unless you're there on some kind of all inclusive trip, conbini are THE way to sustain yourself. They're really everywhere and their products are so good.
    You can get by just on english ans sign language, but being able to understand what the cashier want from you makes things that much more smooth.
    One thing to be said about this video though - they no longer assume you're going to need at least one bag - the bags nowadays cost a couple yen and they now usually ask one of these things depending on what you're trying to buy and whether you have visibly some kind of own bag/backpack on you:
    Do you want a bag?
    How many bags do you need?
    Do you want hot and cold things separated in their own bags?

    What I’ve found is they have lots of ways of asking if you want a bag, but whatever they’re saying, it’s always if you want a bag.
    So 9/10 times you can just say yes or no (depending on what you want) to the first thing they ask you.
    Then just say you’d like to pay by card or suika, and that’s it.

    Yeah its true per experience not all staff speak clearly but I know because I am also slow in catching the spoken phrases.
    Now I can only catch 7/10 and sooner perfect 10.

    Very helpful video. When I'm in Japan and I go to a coffee shop like Starbucks and get a cinnamon rolI or other pastry, I'll hear that phrase 'atatamemasu ka?' (あたためます か?) every time. I heard it every day. I usually respond 'sonomamadaijobu' ('そのままだいじょぶ’)? They understand, but I was never sure if it sounded dumb or not.
