“People only come to polling booths because they know they’ll be rewarded with a sausage, which is also the only reason they come to Bunnings. So it’s a natural fit"

For reals though: you wouldn't want to be the community group that gets a Bunnings slot on an election date. It would decimate your sales as everyone already had their sausage. People buying a second at Bunnings would not be the norm.

@MHLoppy Heh. It's cute, but I've been on one. They don't run them, they just provide the space and the rules.
