Did you know that the receipts from Seico Mart, a local convenience store beloved by Hokkaido residents, have playful gimmicks to coincide with special occasions? This receipt trick, which has become familiar to Hokkaido residents, is becoming a hot topic on social media, with people saying, "It's that time of year again!"

On December 15th, an illustration appeared at the top of receipts! The illustration, reminiscent of "that guy" with the red hat and beard, caused a stir on social media with comments such as "I knew it was about time," "This year it's going to be from the top!" and "I need to collect receipts."

Regular receipts are here

The story is complete! The cute Santa appears again this year.

The illustrations change every few days, and Santa finally made an appearance on December 22nd! The "o" in "Seico mart" has been replaced with a present, and the logo has also been given a Christmas makeover.

Maybe something will come out next year?

Seico Mart's fun-filled receipts are becoming a tradition. This year's New Year's saw the appearance of the zodiac animals, but maybe there will be something else hidden next year too? When you go shopping, be sure to keep an eye on your receipts.
