Video 1: Footy cap

Captions:

Bar attendant: John, I've noticed afternoons are pretty quiet around here.

I think I've come up with a good way to get more customers in.

Manager: What's your idea?

Bar attendant: Well we could put up a big sign at the bar that says

'Buy five drinks between 6pm and 7pm and get a free football cap.'

That would sure make them drink.

Manager: Thanks for your input Sarah, but that'd be illegal.

Bar attendant: Oh, OK I hadn't realised.

Manager: Yeah, with our promotions we've got to be responsible and not try to encourage our customers

to buy heaps of drink in a short time for a prize.

Bar attendant: Well what could we do?

Manager: I like your idea, but.

What about this? We put up a sign

'Buy drinks between 6 and 7pm and get a footy cap voucher. One voucher per night, per person.

Collect ten footy cap vouchers and you get a free footy cap.'

Bar attendant: Cool, sounds good.

Manager: Hey, your idea, thanks!

Notes:

This role play demonstrates a young member of staff coming up with what they thought was a good idea, without understanding the requirements of The Liquor Act.
