danz 0 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 I'm bored at work...and I don't think this has been done... so which is it?? Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 Definitely 7-11. Lawson sandwiches suck big time. Link to post Share on other sites
cheeseman 1 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 Well, none of them deal in cheese anywhere near as much as they should do, but I would say 7-11 is best of the lot. Why a company would want to not appeal to all those Cheesefans out there looking for their delicious and nutritious cheese fix is beyond me. It just doens't make sense. I am sure that the first conbini that looked after the hordes of cheesefans would be onto a good thing! Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted March 13, 2003 Share Posted March 13, 2003 gotta go with the K, not listed but vying for world dominance in nagoya. i like my local circle K cos they dont even try to put my stuff in a bag or whack a sticker on it. that is positive evidence that this skill can be learned!!

Ocean11 0 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 7-11 seem to be going crazy on 'service through speaking'. This means that the 17-year old bimbo that can barely write kanji is being taught some elaborate little politeness routine, but being wholly uneducated, she can't quite remember it all or get her tongue around it. When buying the Snickers and Yona Yona required for snowboarding, waiting for the cute but stupid girlie to finish drawing your attention to some wrapped pizza deal they have amounts to lost time. Yesterday I had to tell the girlie the other day to hurry up otherwise I would have missed the van. That is not convenient. Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 There are a lot of Daily Yamazaki's in Nagano. I particularly dug the selection at the Seiko-mart this last weekend. Link to post Share on other sites
nzlegend 1 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 7-11 has the best selection, and the all important alcohol! the others can be good but 7-11 has to be the one Link to post Share on other sites
RayInJapan 0 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 mini cup chicken at Lawsons! Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 the pizza man at lawsons is way better than the one at 7-11. Link to post Share on other sites
Karnidge 2 Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 7-11 gets my vote too. nekobi - really? That surprises me, the food I have got in the past from Lawson wasn't too good. Link to post Share on other sites
TheOrange 0 Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 7-11 for me too, by far the best I think Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 You know you've been in Japan too long when... ... you have a favourite convenience store. Link to post Share on other sites
curious-georgia 0 Posted March 15, 2003 Share Posted March 15, 2003 How do the 7-11s in Japan compare to those in the US? Link to post Share on other sites
Will Lee 0 Posted March 16, 2003 Share Posted March 16, 2003 How `bout "Just Spot?" Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 karnidge- yeah, overall i'll agree that 7-11 has better food, but man, lawson's wins with the pizza mans. Link to post Share on other sites
xxx 2 Posted March 17, 2003 Share Posted March 17, 2003 Looks like a pizza-man needs to be checked out at Lawson then. Link to post Share on other sites
7-11 2 Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 Guess what? 7-11, of course. By far the best. Link to post Share on other sites
MistaSparkle 0 Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 7-11. hands-down, best combini food. Link to post Share on other sites
IIIII 2 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 They all seem pretty much the same to me, though I don't use them often Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted March 19, 2003 Share Posted March 19, 2003 we only have 7-11 here. one thing i noticed when i was in japan (correct me if im wrong) was that the 7-11's dont sell slurpees. whats with that? Link to post Share on other sites
oblivion 5 Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 Whats a slurpee then? Flavored ice? Link to post Share on other sites
cariba 0 Posted March 26, 2003 Share Posted March 26, 2003 7-11 seems best to me (in my very limited experience). Link to post Share on other sites
silly-sausage 0 Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 7-11, there most weekdays. Link to post Share on other sites
cal 6 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 7-11 have gone and changed their sandwiches - and a downgrade if you ask me. Link to post Share on other sites
badmigraine 0 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Hey Mogs--was that konbini near my house a Lawson's or am/pm? I memorized it "on purpose" several times, but still can't remember... I remember white flourescent lights, and a sign/in-store logo paint made up of blue and orange or red lines. Erm... Link to post Share on other sites
