    Your best bet is to buy it online from Amazon Japan or Don Quijote. http://goo.gl/tTrRfc

    Can you not get them in Costco? A mate sent some over to me this year from back home. I'm surprised they made it through customs/security! Don't tell anyone! Ooops! Anyway, I'll be out and about in Tokyo this weekend, so I'll keep an eye out for some.

    Thanks Kevin and Tomuu. I used to get them in Costco, but they stopped doing them 3 years ago. ;-( They were lovely ones too. Last year, a friend organised a load and gave her foreign friends them as Christmas presents. Great idea. Swore I'd do it this year as she's moved home, but... well you know yourself. So here I am, cracker-less!!!!!

Is there a limit on daily posts?

Does anyone know if there is a limit on the number of posts we can publish each day? The reason I ask is, yesterday I wrote more than 30 posts, but I realized last night that at least the last two I wrote, have disappeared. They definitely published, but then disappeared a few minutes later. One was about a Santa in Nagoya, the other about Santa in Tamadairanomori. There maybe more but those two are definitely missing.

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
