Otherwise, they have newspaper machines at places such as Cafe 100 (a good place to get coffee and a loco moco to go with the newspaper), Ken's House of Pancakes, as mentioned previously - KTA, Safeway, etc. There are a few newspaper machines outside of some shops, too. Ask your neighbors where the nearest one is, they'll know.

Thank you

You're welcome! Generally in Hawaii, neighbors are a huge resource. Things aren't always where you'd expect them to be so asking your neighbors where the nearest source of whatever usually saves a lot of time and effort. I was looking for traverse rod hardware (the curtain rods where you can move the drapes back and forth by pulling a string) and you'd think they'd sell them at the fabric store. Nope, they were are the place you buy used refrigerators. Who'da thunk it, eh? There was a whole confab at the fabric place while just about everyone in there was thinking about where such things could be found. The bizarre part of this - at least to my way of thinking - is that now the fabric store will refer folks to the used refrigerator store to buy curtain hardware instead of stocking it themselves.
