Double Standards

I have only a small business recently and all sales are cash (Coins and Notes) which is quite normal for an informal business. I decided to purchase stock at the depot and I went to the direct sales at the Parow Depot on the 31 Aug 2015. The cashier who assisted me then informed me that they can only accept R50's worth of coins.<br> <br> The cost of one tray of cooldrink already far exceeds this. Whats quite interesting is the fact that i was there 3 weeks ago early the morning and the very same cashier needed change for the rest of the day and was quite happy to accept R3000 worth of coins and now that the coins are not needed, she now wants to apply a rule which has \always been in place". The purpose of any rule should be app**** consistently and not only when it suits your business.<br> <br> The facility is there for small business to purchase directly however i do not see how Coke supports SME's if this is the kind of rules put into place for their benefit. <br> <br> DOUBLE STANDARDS AT BEST AND AS A BRAND THEY CLAIM TO SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES. YA RIGHT!"""
