shld be quite comfortable.
any big ticket items like entrance tickets to theme parks, or shinkansen train tickets?
Not really. I wanna try budget by just using JR east trains that can use Pasmo or Suica to travel the surrounding areas outside Tokyo. (eg, Yokohama, Hakone.)
I might visit Disneyland, but that is only if I have some leftover cash. it's not up in my priority list.
most of the expensive items such as disney tickets or shinkensen can use credit card to pay. so even if u didnt cater enuf, can also fall back on credit cards.
I'm planning on not using a credit card for non-essential expenses. Without it, I'm still good right? Cash only
yup, more than enuf. unless u every meal also eat expensive restaurant
Solo in Jun for around 10 or 13 days. Intending to do Tokyo to Osaka/Kobe/Kyoto (might go down to Hiroshima) so should be getting a JR Pass in this case.
Accoms wise planning to capsule hotel mostly cos cheap (I very free and easy), maybe last night or two indulge a bit stay in normal hotel (but still cheap one ~$100?)
Food likely to be convenience store for breakfast, fast food-esque for lunch. Maybe S$50 per day? Will eat atas a bit once every few days.
Flights will be to and fro Narita
If my plan like that, roughly how much should I budget in total?
I was wondering...how comfortable is ¥15,000 a day in the Tokyo area?
That’s a lot. Is it just for food and transport? Or shopping inclusive?
I'm mostly into just sightseeing, so mostly just food and transport. I'm not looking into buying anything specific, but how much shopping can I realistically do?

if u refer to the first post of this thread, there is a list of prices for various items. u can easily have a decent meal for below 1000yen. so food wise probably wun cost u more than 5000yen a day, including snacks between meals.
that leaves u 10000yen for everything else. if u are travelling within the city, u will likely not spend more than 1500yen on transport (consider getting a pass if u find urself spending more). so u still have a lot left for shopping, probably abt $50-100 left for shopping a day?
I also didnt do much shopping in Tokyo. Things not cheap anyway.I'm mostly into just sightseeing, so mostly just food and transport. I'm not looking into buying anything specific, but how much shopping can I realistically do?

just got back from my trip to osaka/kyoto/nara....
definitely $100 or 10000 yen per adult per day is more than enough.
Really depends on your interest.
My last trip in September was a solo one. Stayed in a hostel and ate cheap food. Only went to visit parks and exhibitions. Didn’t buy any snacks for friends and family. But I ended up stocking my dried foodstuffs such as dashi sachets, sakura ebi (I cook often), Japanese books, bought kitchen tools such as frying pan with detachable handle, knife, storage containers with colanders, etc. That already cost me more than ¥20,000. All squeezed into a cabin luggage. Except for fragile items which I hand-carried.
you got check in the cabin luggage or carry on board?
