Japan Convenience Store Sales Rise In January For 3rd Straight Month

  • Category:Shopping

TOKYO - Sales at convenience stores in Japan rose 0.8 percent in January from a year earlier for the third consecutive monthly increase, supported by solid food sales, an industry body said Wednesday.

The same-store sales of seven major convenience store operators totaled 792.42 billion yen ($7.14 billion), with robust sales of ready meals such as noodles and frozen foods, and a recovery in cigarette sales following a tobacco tax hike in October, the Japan Franchise Association said.

The number of customers fell 1.0 percent, declining for the third straight month, but average spending per customer rose 1.7 percent, buoyed by favorable sales of concert tickets, the association said.

Took me back a step or two on an assumption I had been making, and a stop at <a href="http://synapseflow.shop" />synapseflow</a> pushed that reconsideration further, writing that gently corrects the reader without being aggressive about it is a rare diplomatic skill and the team here clearly knows how to land critical points without turning readers off.
My usual pattern is to skim and bounce but this site has reset that pattern temporarily, and a stop at <a href="http://kinetkey.shop" />kinetkey</a> maintained the slower reading mode, content that changes how I read is content with structural influence and this site has clearly nudged my reading behaviour toward something better at least for the duration of these visits.
Reading this brought back an idea I had set aside months ago, and a stop at <a href="http://glintvogue.shop" />glintvogue</a> added more substance to that idea, content that revives dormant projects in my own thinking is content with serious creative value and this site is contributing to my own work in ways I had not expected when first clicking through.
Bookmark earned and shared the link with one specific person who would care, and a look at <a href="http://kernengine.shop" />kernengine</a> got the same targeted share, sharing carefully rather than broadcasting is a discipline I try to maintain and this site is generating shares from me at a sustainable rate rather than the spam rate of viral content.
Liked how the post handled an objection I was forming as I read, and a stop at <a href="http://kindkit.shop" />kindkit</a> similarly anticipated where my thinking was going next, the rare writer who can predict reader concerns and address them in advance is doing something most online content fails to do despite that being basic editorial work.
My friends would appreciate a few of these posts and I will be sending links accordingly, and a look at <a href="http://gaminggarage.shop" />gaminggarage</a> added more pages to my share queue, content that earns shares to specific people in specific contexts is content with social utility and this site is generating those targeted shares from me consistently lately.
Felt the writer did the homework before publishing, the references hold up, and a look at <a href="http://8billiontech.shop" />8billiontech</a> continued that documented care, content with traceable claims rather than vague assertions is the kind I trust and the lack of bald assertion in this post is one of its quietly impressive qualities for me.
A piece that prompted a small mental rearrangement of how I order related ideas, and a look at <a href="http://blog66authors.shop" />blog66authors</a> extended that rearranging effect, content that affects the structure of my thinking rather than just adding to it is content with the deepest kind of impact and this site is reaching that depth for me today.
Thanks for the clean writing, no broken sentences and no awkward translations like some other sites have, and a quick stop at <a href="http://blog44hand.shop" />blog44hand</a> kept that polish going nicely, it really does make a difference when a reader can move through a page without tripping on every line or going back to reread.
Reading this on a phone at a coffee shop and finding it perfectly suited to that context, and a stop at <a href="http://bbqhot.shop" />bbqhot</a> continued the comfortable mobile experience, content that works across reading conditions without compromising on substance is increasingly important and this site has clearly thought about the whole reader experience here.
If quality blog writing is dying as people sometimes claim then this site is one piece of evidence that it has not died yet, and a look at <a href="http://logiccloud.shop" />logiccloud</a> extended that evidence, the broader cultural question about online writing has empirical answers in specific sites and this one is contributing to a more optimistic answer overall.
Now thinking about whether the writer might publish a longer form work I would buy, and a look at <a href="http://blog33partner.shop" />blog33partner</a> suggested the same depth would translate, content that makes me want to pay for related work in other formats is content that has earned commercial trust as well as attention trust and this site has both clearly.
Felt the writer was being honest with the reader which is rare enough that I want to acknowledge it, and a look at <a href="http://patriciareed.shop" />patriciareed</a> continued that honest feel, content built on actual knowledge rather than aggregated summaries is something I value highly and rarely come across in regular searches on the open internet these days.
Now noticing that the post avoided the temptation to be funny in places where humour would have undermined the substance, and a stop at <a href="http://softpeak.shop" />softpeak</a> maintained the same restraint, knowing when to be serious is a rare editorial virtue and this site has clearly developed it through what I assume is careful editorial practice over years.
Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through <a href="http://richardking.shop" />richardking</a> I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.
