Promote retail sales online by offering heavily
                       discounted goods for sale on a website but restricting
                       the time each customer can spend browsing and
                       purchasing to a couple of minutes. An individual visiting
                       the site would be clocked-in, timed-out and refused
                       entrance again for the duration of the online sale. The

171result would be similar to a trolley dash as customers
                       sought to fill virtual baskets with bargains and
                       complete credit card transactions before being locked
                       out. Customers could earn extra time in the store by
                       referring friends to the site.

                       Manufacture tyres with fluorescent paint injected into
                       them at the level of legal tread. Worn tyres would show
                       in a different colour and be easily noticed by either the
                       owner or the relevant authorities.
