Is toilet paper common in Japan?
Toilet paper is a common item in Japan and can be found at any convenience store or supermarket for around ¥100 per roll (approx US$0.90). There are various types and brands available ranging from basic single ply tissue to luxurious quilted varieties made from bamboo fibers or other natural materials. While it is an essential item for hygiene purposes, it should also be noted that it does generate some waste and can increase water bills if not managed properly.
