7-Eleven Shop – Collection of Mini-stationery

Our 7-Eleven Shops create a collection of mini-stationery for their customers. With the purchase of articles inside their shops, customers may get some stamps (the more they buy, the more stamps they can get).

With ten stamps in hand, a customer can get one of the ten pieces of stationery, but the problem is that the shop-assistant just randomly pick up one and give it to the customer. The latter is not allowed to choose his/her favourite stationery or cartoon figure. In this case, it is merely by luck that a customer can get his/her favourite.

These cartoon figures are Maruko (小丸子) and her classmates and their stationery are shown in the top photo:

[5] is my favourite. Up to this moment, I only get [4] and [9], but I am not going to get more. The reason is very simple. My choice falls into the hands of others. That is to say, the collection game is beyond my control and so I abandon it right away.
