 According to the Japan Franchise Chain Association, same-store sales at convenience stores in April totaled 938.3 billion yen. Sales of onigiri (rice balls) and soft drinks were strong during the spring cherry blossom viewing and Golden Week holidays, and sales of inexpensive cup noodles were also strong. I wish convenience store sales would keep growing and food would taste better! Reference  https://l.smartnews.com/m-lfFnB8Q/t3qPOS

  The government will gradually lower gasoline prices starting on the 22nd in response to high prices, but there are concerns from the field. For the first week after the 22nd, the nationwide retail price will be subsidized to drop by 5 yen. From there, the price will be lowered by one yen each week and finally adjusted down to 10 yen on July 3. People at gas stations are in trouble because many people misunderstand this and the excess inventory is not reflected in the price. My personal opinion is that since I use my car to go to college, it will continue to get easier and easier. Reference  https://l.smartnews.com/m-l44LUoo/MPWtOx

 Sake tourism consists of five elements: the local area, trains, products, agriculture, and hot springs, so it is not just about drinking sake, but also includes a variety of unique experiences, which I thought would help convey the local charm and revitalize the community.  I would like to make the most of my purpose in life in our group work, and think about what I like, what I am good at, and what I can make money doing that will be sought after in the world.  I was very impressed by the story of common sense, that what is natural for me is not natural for others. I would like to remember this when I face challenges in my life and face them myself.

 Phishing scams are currently prevalent.  Phishing is a method in which someone obtains the victim's ID and password, gains unauthorized access, and takes over the victim's securities account. The phishing scammer manipulates the account to sell stocks and other assets in the account, and then uses the proceeds to make large purchases of stocks that are likely to move the stock price. At the point when the purchased stocks rise in price, someone gains profit by selling the stocks held in advance at a higher price.  It is imperative that countermeasures be taken with "multi-factor authentication." reference  https://l.smartnews.com/m-kNgPBYc/mGK7t0
