Lotto, baby

Ok, so apparently, the Taiwanese government wasn't getting taxes from stores like they felt they should be getting, so they developed a system of standardized receipts to somehow facilitate their getting accurate records from the stores. To motivate people to go to the stores with the receipts, they made up a lottery where people check the standardized numbers on their receipts.

And that, my friends, is how I won a whopping 400 NT tonight. ($12 USD)
