摘要:
A point of sale system uses change from cash transactions to, upon the approval of a customer, purchase a lottery stake. The system generates a receipt for both the point of sale transaction and the lottery stake purchase. The receipt indicates when the customer has won. In particular the receipt has imprinted a list of items purchased and a lottery indicator imprinted on the receipt for indicating whether the receipt is a winner. Ideally, the receipt is printed on paper and includes a subtotal, a tax line item, a total, and a change line item. At least a portion of the change line amount represents the lottery stake. In one embodiment of the invention, the receipt includes the statement: “You Won!”.
