Stag Night Stocks (dot)goodidea

I live in a party city that is a magnet for stag and hen nights. Naturally as part of these celebrations it is customary to handcuff the groom to be to a lamp post or something.

This is all fine and good, but what a waste of firemens' time freeing such people. In order to over come this problem I give you stag night stocks (dot)goodidea.

The idea is simple. The stag is placed in the stocks that are located in key places around the city. They are then closed, coins placed in the meter, and the stocks will lock. The friends can then go on and get drunk further and ultimately forget where they left there friend. After the paid for time has lapsed the stocks unlock and the stag can make there way to hospital suffering from acute alcohol poisoning as per normal.

It has a number of revenue streams. Local councils will help fund the project to save on the fire service bills, and there is the revenue from the payment. Considering the price of stag night handcuffs this can be a significant income, and the friends will still have saved money.

I can also see scope for accepting credit card payments, and having a loyalty card for frequent use. There is also the option of family sized stocks that can be used at a discount in the day. This is so you can go shopping without having to worry about hubby or the kids wondering off.

So what do you think. I think it is a financial winner. Are you in?
