The Difference Between Sweden and Australia

From The Local in Sweden

Woman uses fishing line to cheat bottle deposit system

A 42-year-old woman in Köping was caught by a security guard on Tuesday using a fishing line to claim multiple deposits on a single recyclable bottle at a Willys supermarket in the central Swedish town, several local media report.

In Sweden, if you use some fishing line to get extra money from the bottle deposit machine, the police catch you on video and charge you for fraud.

In Australia, if you use some fishing line to get extra money from the bottle deposit machine, you get given the Australian Of The Year award for your ingenuity and respect of all your mates. Hello Australia!

Do we even have bottle deposit machines? Maybe in South Australia only where they have doubled the refund recently. Its time for a good Kramer scam!
