COUPONS.
(To the Editor.) Sir, —Would it not be to the advantage of everybody concerned for customers to insist that retailers give a cash discount instead of coupons. At present retailers pay out spot cash to coupon companies and the money goes right out of the town. The retailer can just as well give his customer the direct cash discount. Then from the customers’ point of view if they had the cash value, is slightly over id each coupon or 7id for 12 coupons, they could select and buy their own prizes from local shopkeepers instead of waiting months, if not years, to save enough coupons to win one of the larger prizes sent from outside sources. This would surely be a better proposition alike for customer and retailer. —I am, etc., CASH DISCOUNT.
