Answer 6

no.

Answer 7

no they don't. they take alot of taxes out of your winnings though. like if you won 250 million you'd robably get around 150 of it. it blows.

Answer 8

Yeah I think they get a little bit of the money...I'm not quite sure how much though.

Answer 9

YES the shop gets it

- This encourages more gas stations and shops to participate in being a provider of lotto tickets which in turn allows more people to participate, this is why they are given a % of the winnings.

The Shops policy on how it's shared or divided between employees will differ.Sometimes (but rarely) yes because it might have been the worker(s) who influenced the customer to get a lotto ticket and so they would deserve a bit of the share. But mostly no, the owner would keep it.

I'd ask a 7-11 employee just to be sure.

Answer 10

No it doesnt usually happen it depends really

Answer 11

Yes in the UK the shop/garage/store gets a percentage and then they put up a notice declaring that they sold a £???amount winning lottery ticket.

Lottery winnings are tax free in the UK

Answer 13

What are you talking about? LOL no if you win the lottery there are a few options you can take all the money up front but there would be a great tax on it and the state would get it, or you could take monthly allotments for x amount of months with a lesser tax. But as far as the shop goes they get nothing.
