There are many ways to express it. Considering your circumstances, I would suugest you to say:
reshito onegai shimasu (in romanji form), which is pronounced as le-shi-tall, or-nei-gai-shim-masu.
reshito means, and originates from the English word receipt. An easy way to remember it is to add "tall" to the English word receipt, and to pronounce the first letter r as l (Japanese cannot pronounce r)
onegai shimasu originates partly from Kanji and partly from Hiragana. Whenever you want to request something, you just put the noun ahead of onegai shimasu,. eg,
Mizu onegai shimasu = may I have some water (when you are in a eating place)
Mizu = water.
