As Christmas approaches and the yen continues to stick around the 150 mark, I’m trying to figure out the cheapest Christmas gifts that would still be appreciated back home. I usually just give my nieces and nephews gift cards, but the exchange rate is making that pretty difficult.
So the second option would be to ship some of the best food and candy from Japan for them to enjoy. But last time I tried that, Yucho wanted me to pay ~8,000円 to ship a small box of snacks from Japan to the US.
Wondering what other methods of shipping you’ve all used, and what really is the cheapest method of shipping both domestic and international?
