86 Incentive for shopping….

Having trawled through all the posts on this site and the 'other' one I have yet to see a definitive answer. Never had a proper answer to my previous post.

payoff , payout , buyoff, carrot , bounty , rebate , parole , reward , pardon all have pluses but none seem to fit exactly. My personal favourite is Pardon, but still not convinced.

Any other suggestions please.

There isn't enough in the clue to arrive at a definitive answer, so several of the suggestions are possible, but none are convincing. If anyone has a better idea there seem to be a few of us who would like a hint.
Thanks. in advance for any help.

Coupon fits nicely with the clue as it stands. However I can find no connection re the Law. So I'm afraid it probably isn't the answer.

Again motive looks good, but has already occurred as an answer elsewhere in the quiz.

Reward ?

If you `shop` someone you might get one!

Nemo, it wasn't mentioned in this thread, but the answer is given in the quiz as six-letters.

Thanks malone. I was not aware of that so am just throwing out random possibilities as there seems to be an impasse. I did suspect a six figure target as all the examples given were in that format but "nobody told me, Sir".
