Lawson's!

I'm going to Iriomote next month with Yuka and some other JETs! This time, I bought my plane ticket at the local Lawson. Japanese convenience stores are the coolest places ever. They look identical to American one's, but the difference is that the food is safe to eat and you can pay your bills.

Most of my bills are withdrawn automatically. But for the ones that aren't, I get a paper bill with a barcode that I take to Lawson's and pay there. Since I don't have a credit card, when I bought my plane ticket online, they gave me an ID# that I used at Lawson's to buy my plane ticket! I also pay for my Amazon.co.jp orders there too! Cool!
