This protects both consumer and the merchant. We just saw a very good reason why this service is needed in Wind Gap. How many stores in Lehigh County are giving you what you order? Even parking meters are tested. In Allentown, Fed Ed installed meters that do not gove you an hour's worth of parking for an hour's worth of quarters. In Lehigh County, gas stations and other businesses are not being checked at all. The cost for this is part of the annual licensing fees.
