In Japan you can do just about anything in a convenience store, get some good yummy lunch boxes or little snacks like onigiris, pay your bills, and now buy an iPod. And unlike North America, the cost of items at Japanese convenience stores are like only 10-20 cents higher than the larger grocery stores. 7-Elevens in NA are a complete joke.
