Water The Odds?

I was on a road trip with my dad, and we stopped at a little gas station to switch drivers. I went inside to get a two-dollar bottle of water.

Clerk: “There’s a five-dollar minimum if you’re gonna use a debit card.”

Me: “Oh. I don’t have cash.”

Clerk: “Do you want a three-dollar lotto?”

Me: “Sure!”

I scratched it there and then, and I won fifty dollars! I showed it to the clerk.

Me: “I guess I’ll have cash now!”

The clerk glared and grumbled at me the entire time he was counting out my cash!
