Other new titles for existing wide-area progressives QuarterMillion$TM and Cash For Life, include S&H GreenstampsTM, Penny FrenzyTM, and Hee Haw, the cornball comedy that was a weekly television staple. Keeping with nostalgic fun, the S&H Greenstamps slot is equipped with a proprietary PrizeCenterTM technology that allows players to use their cash-out tickets to shop for a variety of unique products at a nearby high-speed Internet kiosk. By taking the original concept of saving S&H Greenstamps and now applying modern technology, PrizeCenter products will include rewards ranging from a Hank
Aaron-autographed baseball to Jamaican cruises to a 60-inch high-de nition television! In total, hundreds of di erent premium prizes will be available for lucky players. As you play, you collect stamps, just as we used to do in grocery stores many years ago. e stamps accumulate separately from any wins or losses on the game. When you leave, you take a ticket for the amount of green stamps you have and feed it into a
“Redemption Center” kiosk to either claim a prize or open an account to save for the prize you want! Look for these games in about nine months.
