the consumption tax hike raised the price of stamps

On April 1, a new fiscal year started across the nation. The consumption tax went up from 5% to 8%, which means something to local people. Some of them lined up to do the last time shopping before the tax hike.
A stamp for an envelope now costs extra 2 yen. If you haven’t used 80 yen one up yet, you have to add this tiny rabbit one.
