Annual Senbei Expenses: 150,000 Yen

That was two years ago,
and last year it was around 100,000 yen.
I'm talking about those iron-plate grilled senbei (rice crackers) from Oguraya Seikaasha (confectionery shop) in Zoshigaya.
Every time I buy them, about 95% gets distributed to customers
or used as a kind of political calling card, so it's more of a business expense than a personal purchase—
that's why I called it "senbei expenses" rather than "senbei spending" in the title.

Today, a customer gave me a bag of those iron-plate grilled senbei.

But just coincidentally, our shop had just ordered some the other day, so

as thanks for the bag they gave me, I gave them 2 bags in return.

When I tried to place an order by downloading the order form PDF from Oguraya Seikaasha's homepage,
the page showed a 404 Not Found error,
so I called Oguraya Seikaasha and asked them to fax me the order form.
I was worried they might be closed due to coronavirus,
but apparently that's not the case.
