yeah, but think of this scenario.

i come by myself, and meet my mate in the car park. we both walk into the pub, and i say that i am dessy for tonight, and get cheap stamps.

i buy 4 beers on my cards, and give 2 to my mate, while he buys cokes and gives a couple to me.

then next week, its my mates turn to get the cheap stamps, and we both get our stamps a lot cheaper than normal. we also take it in turns to register each week.

too easily rorted i think.

maybe the go would be to provide quick and easy meals for people that dont have the time to sit down for 1+ hours. i.e have sausage sizzle, or bowls of wedges that are guaranteed to come out really quick or something like that

Any system would be open to rorting, but thats what the ops people are there for - to see if a workable model could be put up. I like the idea - i'm not pretending to have the answers.

but if its recorded, but could put some sort of "fair use" policy against it. More work obviously, but its just a thought I thought I should share. that sentence didn't really work now did it?

That would be a start, tho I'm not a fan of the wedges when I'm trying to keep the carbs down. Ceasar's are good, but seem to take a long time at some places.
