== [[Film]] - Live-Action ==

* ''[[Home Alone|Home Alone 3]]'': The brother's parrot only plays along with the scheme if you have TWO crackers.

* In ''[[Strange Brew]]'', Bob and Doug McKenzie successfully bribe the secretary at Elsinore Brewery for information by using a donut: "Perhaps one of THESE would refresh your memory?" She gives them a little information, but holds out for another before giving up the full scoop.

 

== [[Web Comics]] ==

* In ''[[Dominic Deegan]]'', Oracle for Hire, Garrit demonstrates why the testimony of talking animals isn't admissible in court by bribing Spark to change his story about Bumper in one story arc.

* A while back in ''[[General Protection Fault]]'', Trudy Trueheart obtained a stockpile of advanced alien weapons by bribing an Alien Overlord... with cheese. Apparently, Earth is the only place in the galaxy where cheese is made, and their attempts to synthesize it (see: cattle mutilations) have so far failed.
