Public phones have become pretty rare now that mobile phones are everywhere…^^;
But on the 1st floor of City Hall, there were still several lined up in a row.Though calling four phones “a row” might be a bit of a stretch
As you’d expect from City Hall!
There were phones set at a height that works for wheelchair users, as well as a Silver Phone, which can amplify the receiver volume up to 18 times louder(^^)
And then I found something I wasn’t used to seeing!
It was my first time seeing one! A public fax machine
Here’s how to use it↓
The fee is 20 yen for the first page, and 10 yen for each additional page.
Most convenience stores charge 50 yen per page, so this is a little bit cheaper, isn’t it?～(^^)
At convenience stores, you can usually receive faxes as well as send them, and you can also send larger sizes.
Each option has its pros and cons,
but this was a little tip for anyone who loves saving a little money＼(^o^)／
