Spinning the wheel due to making a purchase

Question:-

If one purchases from certain stores for an x-amount, they automatically qualify to spin a wheel and win a prize. Will the prize be Halaal?

Answer:-

In the queried scenario, you purchased goods from a store at the normal retail price. However, since you voluntarily purchased an x-amount of goods, the store owner allowed you to spin a wheel, and depending on where the wheel stopped, you received a price. Since you were not required to pay anything to spin the wheel, the prize will be considered as a gift to you, which will be permissible to utilize.

ALLAH TA’ALA KNOWS BEST!
