Basically any 'foreign stuff' you actually NEED while living in Japan (and this will vary on your person but for me generally involved toiletries and proper black tea) you have effectively struck out already as it either won't be available in japan at all, or if it is, won't be cheapy cheap.

Everything else can be forgotten about.
