A warning sign plate pasted on a counter in the convenient store seen in the western Ireland.
It draws customers' attention that the tobacco sale to minors will be fined 2,539 Euros.
　
In Ireland, as like as other countries, we can buy a tobacco at the convenient store which also sells gas.
Tobacco usually displayed in a rack near the sales counter. A customer, however, has always to see the
warning saying the 'SMOKERS DIE YOUNGER'.

The price of cigarettes is shown as 6.50 Euros (1,000 Yen at the exchange rate of October 2006)
at the automatic vending machine in a resort hotel of a western area of Ireland.


タバコの値段とタバコ販売方針

アイルランド政府の国民をタバコの有害煙から守るという強い姿勢を常に実感出来る旅行であった。
それは受動喫煙の防止と未成年者へのタバコ販売を阻止して行こうという政策に貫かれている。
コンビニのカウンターには未成年へタバコを販売した時の罰金として2,539ユーロ（約391,000円）
の金額を科せられるとの表示が貼られていた。
