buy it at least once in a day. I buy 3 times in a day. I buy coffee while
going to work by car in the morning, after lunch coffee or Japanese tea,
and on the way in return to home by car in the evening. I cannot live if
there is no vending machine. |

| Taspo Card |
| This card is necessary to buy the cigarette in the vending machine. This
card is an age attestation. In Japan, the cigarette is from 20 years old.
Obtaining this card should apply to the administrative service. However,
this card is unpopular, because the procedure is troublesome. I do not
have this card. Quite a lot of convenience stores like Seven-Eleven are
in Japan. Those convenience stores are opened 24 hours all day. Therefore,
the cigarette machine has decreased now. |

of AED. Moreover, a vending machine offers the drink to people free of
charge at the emergency such as earthquakes. |
