News racks in Salzburg, Austria


Desciption

I don't know how it works in other countries, but on Sunday's -here in Austria- there are hardly any open shops. So we obtain our newspapers from "Zeitunsstandeln" (news racks). It's possible to take one and then you put the money in the bin. (Naturally, many many people don't do that.) Also seen in Germany.

Reason

It's very hard to find the right newspaper, because you can't buy all newspapers at one newsrack, no, if you want a specific paper you have to search very long for it. And even harder in foreign cities.

Less time for looking for it. More time for reading it.

Tagging

  • name=* Name of the Newspapers
  • opening_hours=* The days where the rack is filled with newspapers.
