Convenient Combini is Convenient

Combini are everywhere in Japan!!  Pick a direction and start walking, and chances are that within a block or two, you'll stumble across one. 


But don't be fooled - these are not your average conveniece stores!!  Friends who have been to Japan often lament the absence of combini back home.  Imagine, a one stop shop where you can
  • pay your bills
  • perform international bank transactions
  • send out overseas packages
  • hire a reliable delivery service for luggage/furnature anywhere in Japan
  • buy fireworks
  • get cheap just-been-fried food (chicken, fries, dumplings, weird unidentifiable things)
  • get cheap healthy food (salad, spaghetti, veggies, real sammiches, actually fresh pre-made dinners)
  • other stuff I can't translate


But wait - it gets better.



Just wanted to see if you were still paying attention.
