Clearly lay out your expectations for them to receive their performance bonus (e.g. no more than 15 late minutes within a pay period, no theft, no quitting without notice, no drugs, etc.). If they don't meet your criteria, dock them all or some of their performance bonus.
Dock that bonus once and you'll whip everybody into shape. Or they'll quit. Either way, the problem will be taken care of.

You don't have to do weird things with incentives that will almost certainly alienate them, just tell them they are lazing about too much at the start of their shifts.
I'm not a business owner, but I would think if these two are good employees, Sample doesn't want the cost and time of finding new ones. So it's best to communicate more directly and set clearer expectations, than to rearrange their pay.
