Price of obento and onigiri?

[CWool]

I'll be visiting Japan again soon (hooray!) and was wondering if anyone knew a recent convenience store price for bento boxes and onigiri. When I was last there, I think onigiri were about 100Y each (or maybe 120 for some types), and most bento ranged from perhaps 600 Y to 1200Y. I hope they haven't increased too much.

Google hasn't been very helpful. Any results are several years old. Does anyone have recent experience of these prices? Thanks!

When we're you here last and how much change were you expecting?

Onigiri still run about 105/110 and up, depending on what they contain.

Bento run anywhere from about 298 up, with 450 or do being a more typical starting point for something actually fit to eat.

Ah thankyou! That's good to know. I was last in Japan 9 years ago, and (obviously) have a bad memory for prices.

I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to eating an onirigi again.

I don't quite understand why you have to travel all the way to Japan for just that.
You can EASILY make onigiri yourself. Or don't you guys have rice in Australia?!
