    Disposable incomes are at a low for a generation. There are a huge number of people getting by on minimum wages jobs, or seen their pay capped off against substantial rises in food, utilities and childcare to name but three. While there are always people doing well, there are plenty who are just ticking over and paydays can't come fast enough.

    I know everyone wants to maximise their revenue, and very few think of the impact on others. But its also important for any business not to be greedy and to spread the love around. We're all in this together...

    You may be right Red. I've very recently been told the same. The reason is, apparently, to save money on the transportation & handling of cash !!! And we thought McCabe was a tight arse!
