After searching extensively I couldn't find any article relating to the subject of South Carolina Dispensary, so I created an article that I don't regard as a finished product. Needs some more work, pictures, etc. JLitaker

The math is incorrect in the following sentence: "Since the order was equally divided in size the average cost came to 7.5 cents a jug or $1,500.00 for the order of 2,000 jugs." 2,000 jugs at 7.5 cents (.075 dollar) would be only $150. If the order was $1,500 for 2,000 jugs, than each jug cost 75.0 cents (.75 dollar). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.97.35.125 (talk) 21:15, 11 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

I found the following in the book, “Great & Noble Jar: Traditional Stoneware of South Carolina” by Cinda K. Baldwin, 2014, University of Georgia Press: “According to the sales receipt, Baynhman provided 2,046 one-gallon jugs and 2,118 half-gallon jugs at a total cost of $217.35.” This quote and a copy of the receipt for the jugs are on page 112 of the book. The receipt indicates that the one-gallon jugs were 7 cents ($0.07) each and the half-gallon jugs were 3.5 cents ($0.035) each. — Preceding unsigned comment added by R Paul Armstrong (talkcontribs) 21:39, 11 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
