Drink Anyone?

People often talk about how expensive Tokyo is. While it is not a cheap place I think that one of the things that makes it seem so costly is the access that everyone has to luxury goods. It is not that they are not avialable in other places... in Tokyo they are just in your face, and easily seen. An example is yesterday, had a little walk around Ginza and my favorite electronic store, Bic Camera. Well one of the things that is a natrual extension of an electronics shop is... well a liquor shop. And what would be best to sell... well a 5000USD bottle of whiskey. Yup... perhaps you can use your 50,000USD pen from the store near my work to sign the credit card bill.
