When to use it
A zàijù (carrier) stores your receipt electronically instead of printing it, and the receipt still goes into the invoice lottery automatically. You'll hear the question at nearly every convenience store and chain checkout. If you don't have one, méiyǒu is fine and you'll get a paper fāpiào; if you do, hold up your phone barcode.
