Unlike the practicality of thanking money, this is a beauty in Japanese culture, full of sincerity and warmth.

      In some other countries, when you go to the supermarket without a few cents, the person next to you can take you freely and you can accept and thank them. But that won’t be in Japan. The Japanese don’t like to disturb others, and especially money is a sensitive issue. In Japan, if you want to give someone money, you need to be higher than them.

      If you can wait to get some change back when shopping, nobody will be upset or laugh at you. Even if it is your money, you have the right to do whatever it takes, but the attitude that is considered honorable and disrespectful of that money will be judged bad.
