Payments For Milk
Sir, —I am at a loss to know why milk vendors are not compelled to leave change when necessary for their consumers. If we go to a shop to buy an article and are entitled to change we gel it. Why do we not receive the same service from milk vendors? On one occasion I had not the correct money, 5d for a pint of milk, so I put 6d in the bottle. No change was left. Next night I put 4d in the bottle, thinking the extra Id paid the previous night would make it right. But not so; no milk was left. Are we expected to allow this to continue. —Yours, etc., BEEN SWINDLED. September 13, 1959. [The secretary of the Christchurch Metropolitan Milk Boarc (Mr H S. Feast) said: “The correspondent does not indicate whether he has sought an ex planation from the vendor, whicl •would appear in the first instance to be the logical procedure. However, if he will supply the boarc with his name and address ant the name of the vendor the ques tion will be investigated.”]
