Thinking about getting a few of these to pack fleece jumpers and other bulky cold weather gear for my trip in Feb...
Anyone used em? Are they worth the effort?

I'm going with the contacts and regular goggles option. Got a new pair of Oakley Ambush with persimmon lens and bought a yellow lens as well...

Cheese is expensive.
You can often get really cheap eggs, but they are not coming from "happy birds" as ms muikabochi says.
Eggs from happy birds are expensive everywhere i think
Going to be in Tokyo (Shinagawa), Niseko (GreenLeaf Hotel), Kyoto, and Osaka.
We'll be eating out mostly but i generally like to have a few supplies handy in the room, especially when skiing. In my experience bottled water, snack bars, soft drinks etc. usually end up being a heap cheaper if you hit the supermarket on the first day instead of buying on mountain
But expensive cheese might be a problem, although i did spend $100 on cheese for christmas heh

thanks guys, sounds like it's pretty comparable to Aus

Just looking for a general idea of what some basic things cost as a guide to cost of living? A can of coke for example?

Not sure what they'll be like yet but my brother and i got a pair of these each for our trip in Feb. They are pretty comfy and warm but haven't really had any cold weather to test em out in here in Brisbane

provide, I struggled with OTG goggles for years before finally giving up. They'll fog, end of story. Electric heat elements, dual fans, whatever, they'll fog.
I ski half-blind just in goggles w/o glasses -- if it's a good Niseko day you can't see for all the face shots anyway
Ah thanks DiGriz
i'll just stick with the contacts then, they are just such a pain to put in and there is something inherently wrong with sticking your finger in your eye on purpose while you watch

does anyone use the over glasses style goggles?
i wear glasses permanently and have struggled with contacts and normal goggles in the past but went goggle shopping the other day and discovered thry make the over glasses style.
i tend to exude a lot of heat from my face and head but i've never skiied in super cold conditions (will be in niseko in feb) and i'm worried about my glasses fogging up inside the goggles...

I don't think I have ever eatern in one of these 3 star Michelin. (Isn't 5 star much better?)
Anyone?
Rach, three stars is the most that the Michelin Guide award. It's supposed to indicate a complete dining experience worth a special journey to go to.
Five star ratings are more for accomodation...

But definitely looking to be in Japan for the Rugby world cup in 2019 at the very least
